Are we going to clean the dirt and create an L board Parliament? :Ranil

Refers to an advertisement in the  Daily mirror By Yohan Perera 

Former President Ranil Wickremesinghe who wound up the New Democratic Front (NDF) campaign for the general election said the people of Sri Lanka should decide whether they want to sweep away the dirt and end up with an L board government and a Parliament. 

“ Look at the Dailymirror today. It says get ready to sweep the dirt away” he said, referring to a campaign slogan of the NPP which appeared in an advertisement in the Dailymirror. 
“Cleaning up is good but do you want to end up with an L board Parliament and a government,” he questioned. 

He said the Economic council appointed by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake comprises persons from various fields but they lack knowledge on the economy.” Do these people know what an extended fund facility agreement is,” he questioned. 

He said Sri Lanka might lose dollars 8 billion concession from foreign debt services which was secured  during the previous regime. “ Also one wonders as to why talks with the IMF should go for a third round. The IMF’s norm is to complete a discussion in two rounds. Why is Sri Lanka going for a third round? Sri Lanka will end up going bankrupt once again at this rate.

Therefore it is essential to see that there are experienced persons in Parliament, “ he said.
