Shame, shame, shame. Sri Lanka is doomed. Insulting and making fun of the citizens so openly. Giving the people a big middle finger.

No point asking questions. They are untouchables. Just wait patiently and you will see how many will have the same fate. SL going to dogs.

Srimath- what are you talking it's not only Daisy Archchi's the land in SL belongs to us. Wait for the Gazette notification. He got through his navy qualifications with greatest difficulty so he must be rewarded. It's a wait and see game.

Promoted to Lt Cdr in the Navy and now Chief of Staff in PM's inner sanctuary? What is this drama? Is he drawing two salaries? What is Chief of Staff got to do with political work, as according to regulation, government servants MUST NOT be involved in political promotion and propaganda. Rajapakshas never learn the lessons of 2015. Within a few months of election victory they are back to their former tricks and corrupt practices.

Sadham Hussein did exactly the same thing. He appointed all of his family members to the government.
