Namal, You must get Ranil back your saviour. If Sajith comes he too might save the Rajapksas but not AKD. Before you contest the next Parliamentary election, please explain how you purchased your assets. How you earned the money to acquire them

Sad thing one section of people have to study hard, work hard, earn, save and get loans and build houses. Others have to go to distant countries and work in extreme climates away from loved ones. But the ruling class earn through easy deals and so much that can take care for generations. That is why we need system change.

Good example that political thieves protect each other. When rw was in trouble as leader of unp,mr helped him always. Now rw is protecting the rogue family with his life. Both enjoys free benefits and free security from public money. Do not vote for anyone from slpp,unp,sjb and npp. All are crooks. Vote for a new experienced person from any field. Also do not send any lawyers as they have not done anything useful for the country. Laws are not updated to speed up processes at courts.

RW will not have any chance at the presidential election. He is already rejected and waiting to be rejected by people who are over-taxed. Better to think of world bank job.

MY PREDICTION SOMETIME BACK AFTER I REALISED RANIL HAD NO INTENTION OF GOING AFTER ALL OR ANYONE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COUNTRY'S DOWNFALL, ON ITS KNEES AND INTO A DEEP SINKHOLE. RANIL IS ONLY WORKING ON THE ECONOMY, DOESN'T REALLY GIVE A RATS TAIL ABOUT THE CITIZENSWHO ARE SUFFERING, SOME VOCAL OTHERS IN SILENCE. ELECTIONS WILL BE HELD ONCE THE ECONOMY IS STABLE AND PROBABLY MORE LOANS OBTAINED AGAINST PROJECTS THAT MAY DELAY AND OR NEVER EVENTUATE, THAT MONEY MAY BE USED FOR A ELECTION AT SOME POINT OF TIME. REMEMBER, RANIL WAS NEVER REPEAT NEVER ELECTED BY THE CITIZENS AND HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED. I PREDICT RANIL WILL BE GIVEN A PORTFOLIO MAY EVEN BE PRIME MINISTER AND THEN STEP DOWN AND HAND OVER TO SLPP. I ALSO PREDICT RUWAN MAY ALSO BE GIVEN A PORTFOLIO, IF RANIL ACCEPTS SLPP'S OFFER AS NAMAL STATES. I PREDICT THERE WILL BE A MASS UPRISING LIKE SEEN IN OTHER COUNTRIES, NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE PEOPLES POWER.

Mind it, you can not lose the party (SLPP) overnight, rewarding to RANIL- a SLAVE of the US - which was built by a hard attempt by your father Mahinda Rajapaksa.

This Namal, he proves again and again in his public statements that he is one of the most inept and stupid politicians in the country!!! Like many of the Rajapaksas, he lives outside of reality, in the dream worlds of his humble brain!!! He still has not understood that a fundamental epochal change has occurred in Sti Lanka, which will result in the final political end of the era of the Rajapaksas and their deputy Ranil!!! The SLPP's influence will become more marginal and more marginal and meaningless in the future!!! A strong president (Sarath Fonseka) and united opposition forces (coalitions) will lead Sri Lanka from the swamp of corruption, nepotism and tax injustice into a more socially just society from which democracy and human rights will emerge stronger!!!

Terrence K Thursday, 18 January 2024 03:35 PM
Namal on and off talks in fits and starts trying to take the public for a ride. Who cares whether Ranil or any Tom,Dick or Harry represents the Pottu Party because they very well know that they would get a good drubbing at the next election as the public from every walk of life have experienced untold suffering due to voting these nit wits to parliament and today the common man does not want to be associated with the 6.9mn voters who are now lamenting!!!!!!!!!

This election must be the end of the road of politics for the corrupt politic thieves who destroyed this country over the span of 75 years..There must be a change.. A president with no deals with people from previous governments should be elected.. Otherwise, it'll be a vicious cycle of loans, corruption and stealing....
