Colombo, October 17 (Daily Mirror)- There should be experienced people in Parliament to resolve the economic crisis, former President Ranil Wickremeisnghe said today.

"Those who have worked with me for the past two years have the experience to face economic crises, so they must be in Parliament. Whether you are in the Opposition or in the Government, you cannot run Parliament without this experience. If you try, you will fail in achieving the goals," Wickremesinghe said in a special statement.

What RW says is those who have experience in corruption and crimes must be re-elected as they know how and where corruption and crimes take place.

Mr Wickramasinghe, Its good to have experienced people. However Don't say you cannot run the country without them. Madam Harini is proud of the fact that they don't have experience in bankrupting a country. Besides the experienced people miserably failed to win the confidence of the people. So now your team who ran the country can if needed give their services free of charge in case the people don't vote them back into parliament. All of you did not confront and challenge the horu bond horu canards and finally a vast majority believed that those misapplications have happened and thats why the country is bankrupt. So much for experience.

Well said Mr. Ranil. You and your team have enough experience. That is why when you were leaving the office, one kg rice was 210 rupees. Coconut 125 rupees. Egg 45 rupees. Gas 12.5 kg 3690 rupees. Millions of people were suffering from malnutrition. Tens of thousands of had had their electricity disconnected. Thousands of children had to leave schools prematurely due to economic constraints. You and your team were so talented.

No thank you RW. The country will leap forward without your yes-men.This time around the country will choose honest, able men and women to sit in a new parliament. They will steer the country away from the mess created collectively by all the failed leaders of past 7 decades.

Ranil will come through the National list, after keeping it vacant about one year as last time. Otherwise, what's the purpose of being the leader of the UNP? That's why he made that announcement to confirm it.

If the people who have the experience you refer to, and who have gained such experience working with you, are in parliament they would continue to rob the nation horrifically and sell whatever precious little is left of this once prosperous country.

Ranil's time is up. It is better to keep the trap shut and go and sleep. We are just getting rid of experienced rogues and thugs and elder's home candidates. There is no chance for the cylinder or pohottuwa. The telephone has a few seats to grab. 14th will teach a good lesson for these spent forces.

Experience on what exactly? Bankrupting a country? Same people who were with Gota were with you. The last two years only change was yourself, central bank governor and few officials involved in debt restructuring. Central bank governor is still there, all the officias involved with debt restructuring is also still there. And you are not competing. All the other goons that were in the parliament are ones who actually responsible for bankrupting this country in the first place. So things you are saying does not make much sense at the moment.

Don't look all over the places, just look what you have done to your party, UNP, with all your experience!
