Study the history of 1977, and then study the history of 1083 of lanka before you dare to promote anybody.

Absolutely irritating to see these on the walls. Good for the goats to eat. Why can't the EC impose a rule that posters should be pasted, or hoarding should not be put up. In any case, why should a candidate advertise. If he or she does good for the country, people will vote.

This shows that those who made these posters are still living and thinking 70s 80s era. In simple terms they are not suitable to rule this country.

Does Ranil think that people are dumb not to know the name of the present president? Yes, he is the "selected" president until September 21st.

Political poster culture has been around for the past 70 years, but it has remained the same because it has taken into account the individual's interest..
Our statement was 'NEW CHANGES MUST BE MADE'.

See the beauty, Mahinda did not have a single poster, because he knows these days posters or banners will not work. Foolish Ranil and Sajith only spends the people's money in vain.

Ranil Sir, how many millions you spent for posters? How many millions for Banners?

D.J.M. Karunapala - Economist Thursday, 01 August 2024 01:15 PM
Ranil had spent more approximately 9 million on posters and 6 million on banners. But for his musical shows he had spent over 15 million. Sajith's figures I did not follow yet, shall do it soon.

People some times are irritated with posters because JVPers paste posters whole the years against ruling government.

Hope NPP will not fallow this wasteful practice

Ranil Thursday, 01 August 2024 06:39 PM
Looks like there's no shortage of paper, ink, printers, glue and thugs to go post them.
