Colombo, Jan. 05 (Daily Mirror)- There will be changes in the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) soon with more to join hands with the party, its General Secretary Ranjith Madduma Bandara said today.

“MP Dayasiri Jayasekera will also join us soon while a new alliance will also see the light of day soon,” he said.

Asked whether former Sports Minister Roshan Ranasinghe will also join the SJB, he said it is too early to come out with any details.

However, Madduna Bandara said Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa will definitely contest the presidency this year. He therefore denounced reports that Roshan Ranasighe is slated to become the common candidate representing some opposition parties.

Famous frogs like Dayasiri,Deeldasa,Rajitha,GL,Manusha,Haren and similar guys shouls not be taken into any party. People should avoid voting these froga even if that person contest from your preferred party. Also dont sens any old grandfathers to parliament. We need young experienced people to lead this country not these old crooks and grand fathers.

I wish Hon Sajith ALL THE VERY BEST. Embrace all people without any .cast, race and religion. Incumbent Prez is very cunning and if he wins, he will protect all robbers.

Every party ha good people and crooks. My personal belief is all the good should contest in a single party and the rotten eggs should not be entertained.

The fact that General Secretary Bandara names Pramadasa as the presidential candidate of the joint opposition parties is not good news for the electorate!!! He has neither presidential qualities as a personality nor as a political leader who can initiate, implement and assert new, socially just policies in the face of resistance!!! He should, if he is smart, give preference to the best of his party, Sarath Fonseka!!! He has all the necessary leadership qualities, is strong-willed and assertive!!! With such a personality you can win elections, form coalitions and achieve political goals!!! For the good of the country and the nation, the best choice!!!

No more hope for SJB if they keep on taking these old condemned fellas. They are responsible for the current situation

He should, if he is wise, give preference to the best of his party, Sarath Fonseka, and settle for a ministerial office himself!!!

Almost all had been in parliament over the years and are utter failures. We need new faces who could give leadership to steer the country forward.

Bad eggs who should not be entertained are Harin. Manusha, Rajitha and those who have corruption charges pending. Remember, every human will have a price and is not infallible. It is therefore the systems that must be made fool proof. The Rule of Law and its Equity must be ensured, digitized, transparent and efficient governance, as also, National Reconciliation to promote a truly Lankan identity are a must.

The public at this juncture is not worried of changes in SJB or any other party. We will note vote for frogs who are jumping from one party to another. They are like old wine in a new bottle.

So far the party with the least number of Leeches is the one with the symbol compass. My vote doesn't go to no one other than JDK. I hope it will be the best decision I took for the 30 years of my political life.

So, you like them not doing anything rather than collecting files and funds and sending their children abroad unlike helping the downtrodden with computer labs, medical equipment, busses and power restoration in Mihintale. There are absurd people indeed like 6.9 M voters who helped to bring the country to this level. Can't stop.

How sure are we that Madduma Bandara is not a double agent of Ranil?

Mr.Sajith Premadasa will go on to win the Presidential election no doubt with a small majority 2 to 3 lakhs of votes .This comedian style cross overs are immmaterial to the people when they start voting in huge numbers.But will get 50.1%??? I dont think.

As long as Sajith is there , the other parties have the advantage. Sajith is a fraudseter and a looser. Madduma Bandara is a sleepy Joe. You need tough , hard working and honest people. Sarath fonseka is a man with full of hatred in his mind. So current SJB is not having good leaders.
