Sacked ministers call Basil ’Ugly American’
Sacked Minister Udaya Gammanpila called Finance Minister Basil Rajapaksa an 'Ugly American' today and said he should take full responsibility for the economic debacle the country is facing.
He told a news conference that an American citizen was deciding the fate of the country and said he would reveal as to who put the country into this crisis.
"I will reveal all facts with written proof as to who put the country into this turmoil. This is an intentional conspiracy. The country was taken to a situation where Indonesia had to face in 1997," he said.
Gammanpila said they would do their utmost to protect the country from this dark path even if they remained in the government or not. (Ajith Siriwardana)

You did not have the guts to call him Ugly American when you were with them. Now talking big is useless. Readers still remember your fasting unto death near American HC and how you had King Coconut water from MR

Please don't lose your common sense; wisdom and rationality .... Many politicians and governments have contributed to this crisis. We Sri Lankans must find some feasible solutions for this crisis... blaming one another is not a right way to resolve this issue. If we start doing it we will be falling into more trouble . All what we need to do is now to ask economic experts to come out with some valid solutions ..I beg some stupid politicians to give freedom to some of our best economists in our universities to come up with some plans and strategies to over come this .. Neither MPs nor politicians understand economic problem of this kind ..we have some best economists and academics on economics studies. Give them chance to come up with solutions ..

For the first time I agree what you say. An American citizen with no experience is in charge forcthe economy is not acceptable. Rajapakses are today controlling our country to make money for their families,

Gammampila trying to fool people again. If he has all the information, why not spill it now immediately. He is trying to threaten the government and renegotiate. Don’t worry nothing will come out, just take the foolish masses for a ride again and again.

The Americans were powered by them by not voting against the 18th and the 20th amendments. So, they are too, responsible, for the state of this country by telling blatant lies.

This is a trap. Now they will say we need MR or Namal as other two have failed. This is a clever move orchestrated by Rajapakshas themselves as their final attempt.

Foreign employment dollar earners, Exporters and local manufacturers, tourist industry should be given due recognition by means of incentives and tax concessions. We should pay income and PAYE tax as we paid in the 1980’s and governments should face reality

You have also been in the team that was responsible, no point of post mortems. You are a set of jokers who dont understand economy or management, so get outside advice and sort this mess.

What a show Friday, 04 March 2022 03:53 PM
This is all a farce. The Rajapakshas are scared that the masses are switching support to the jvp/npp. If that happens none of these crooks will get away with the things they have done. So gota and the rest of the rajapakshas are trying to get wimal and udaya to break off and get some support to them. Udaya and wimal are both dirty politicians. Please don’t fall for this bullshit again and again people.

Gammanpila and his crony friends have been part of the plot to destabilise the country and now he is talking crap. He should know how he swindle money from an Australian a few years ago.

You guys were an integral part of the government and equally responsible for the current state of affairs. There is no point coming out and trying to market yourself as innocent non-accomplices now. We don't buy your sad story and crocodile tears. The only good thing is that now there are two less disaster makers in the cabinet with you guys no longer being there. Thank you for that. Perhaps you could get lost into your political sunset now together with Vasu. And by the way remember the stories about the multiple passports and identity cards, and the Australian's assets that were transferred?

In what ways he is ugly- can you spell it out? You may have forgotten that you were demanding un unfettered power on party leadership to Gota once upon a time. I think now it’s time for you to look at you at the mirror

Weerawansa, Gamepilla, and Vasu want to hold on to their ministerial privileges. They are doing the dirty work of Mahinda to ensure that Namal becomes President or PM before Mahinda's death.

It is more likely some spies based in US may have told him to call it in order to set up American public against Sri lanka. This spy group is global and issuing daily threat to Sri lanka by supporting Tamil through US, Canada, EU and UN. These spy groups were behind all wars in the last 70 years and have been carrying out very known same pattern; First espionage build up. then a neighbor invade or terrorist groups invade, Third, massive ancient properties destruction and killing million and making million of them as refugees Fourth changed demography of third world as well as western countries

Rajas lost last time due to Basil factor. Despite that they brought him again and now they will loose again. So their demise is their making. We will again be governed by yahapalana thieves.

This story of ugly American is really laughable when you look at Udaya and Wimal . How Handsome these two guys.? These people are just creating what is called big Phobia against America. This is not strange as some time before it was China Phobia . They create these fears against various countries to cover up their inefficiencies .
