If SLPP can push goods transportation via train, that is the best respect they can give to him.

SLPP, SJB, UNP and SLFP politics are a dirty family business here Monday, 29 January 2024 07:03 PM

Are you being silly? Of course with with the wealth he got the family, the same approach will be taken by his children. Even SLFP chairman has his son in the business of politics, and other Rajapaksa has their child in politics too.

For this only all this struggles think no end to politicians, now who can protect you MR or SLPP. Politicians are given a responsibility to do good to the public. But they act like immortal drop down from sky. Forgetting the purpose of life, greedy for power and money. Now what can you take with you when u depart from this world.

You can see who still has a shred of honor in their chest by looking at the politicians who attend or do not attend the funeral.

Praise the old and the new Gods! All those sympathizers, can you name one significant contribution or achievement from a man of his position, apart from leading mobs? Go ahead, I'm waiting.
