Colombo, September 21 (Daily Mirror)- It is up to the people of this county to decide whether the nation is going for a new political, new export economy and for a new social structure, President Ranil Wickremesinghe told journalists after casting his vote today.

“We have stabilised democracy and it is essential to safeguard it. We will not allow democracy to vanish,” he said.

“I am happy that I have been able to play a role in establishing democracy in the country,” he added.

Please keep quiet and wait for the result. If you don't win, please make sure a quick and seamless power transfer takes place and then go into retirement.

Democracy has no meaning, if people are made to suffer.

I went; I saw; I conquered. Words of Great Napoleon Saturday, 21 September 2024 05:31 PM

I went; I saw; I conquered are famous words of true warrior in history. "Able was I ere I saw Elba", said Napoleon when he wa deported to the Island Elba. You read the sentence from beginning to end or end to beginning, it gives the same words. This is what Ranil achieved when he was nominated to rescue the nation from bankruptcy. If Ranil had failed, we will not wrting comments in this paper.

Thank you for your 2 years. You teamed up with and protected Rajapakse for the past 2 years. You applied tax burden on public, while spending massively on your overseas travel with your mates. Finally you contested this election with the most corrupted members of Rajapakse regime; Prasanna, Rohitha, Mahindananda, Pavithra etc. Are you expecting us to give another term? We want a corruption free Government to move forward. You are Rajapakse will not fit there.

You would have easily won if you took governance seriously. It was a matter of survival for you with the help of rogue Rajapakshes. As aragalaya taught everybody Rajapakshes are not accepted anymore and you sat with them which un dit the good work. Now it is too late. Wait for few more hours
