Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa now seems to be the champion of good governance as he has for the few weeks been repeatedly calling upon the new government to ensure good governance is established and to put a stop to vengeful politics.
MR made these remarks today when he visited the Mahara prison in the morning to visit former Deputy Minister Sarana Gunawardena who is currently in remand prison for financial fraud.
Mahinda Rajapaksa
“I don’t believe it’s a good trend to arrest people in this manner for civil cases. This is not good governance,” he said.
The former President went on to state the Police too should act responsibly with regard to enforcing the law but added he is well aware that these actions are carried out due to political pressure.
“I know that Gamini Senarath has been questioned for facilitating vehicle leasing as the Chairman of the People’s Leasing. . . Now there is an attempt to remand Ratwatte upon questioning him . . .We can now clearly understand the road taken up by this government,” he said while adding such revengeful acts should stop and good governance should be reinstated.
He urged the SLFP Chairman to look into the issues and ensure justice is delivered.

“Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa now seems to be the champion of good governance as he has for the few weeks been repeatedly calling upon the new government to ensure good governance is established and to put a stop to vengeful politics.”
Interesting transformation for the Crooks, Robbers and Criminal Activities and Murders. Then address the other issues. Fricking Coward.
First try him on the Crookeries, Robberies s and Criminals, CRCs.
The new Angulimala?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angulimala
Daku Angulimala (Pāli: “finger necklace/garland”; Sinhala: අංගුලිමාල, Burmese: အင်္ဂုလိမာလ; Chinese: 央掘魔羅) is an important early figure in Buddhism, particularly within the Theravada suttas. A ruthless killer who is redeemed by a sincere conversion to Buddhism, he is seen as an example of the redemptive power of the Buddha’s teaching and the universal human potential for spiritual progress, regardless of one’s background.

May be he is under the false impression that because the average IQ of Sri Lankans is 79, he can fool them all the time.

Still they posses sufficient common sense to recognize what Mahinda Rajapaksa is.
Just distribute the speeches by CBK and JVP. The more one exposes maRa, and the more he talks, the more MaRa gets exposed.

Cannot this Buffoon understand Good Governance is allowing the Law to take it’s course, where suspects are remanded and cases filed. Under his Good Governance people were white vanned, assaulted, abducted, disappeared, tortured and killed. Either the Bugger is completely bonkers or think the masses are asses.

Are these people so deaf and blind ? Why should Raja beg the people to go against any criminal being arrested ? What is his right to protect the criminals ? Any one with a bird brain should raise is before supporting the criminal king here. Is this the real picture of the cross section of the most gullible folks in this country? What is the example MR gives here ?

MRs way is move on for crimes and let crimes to continue. This man belongs to prison. This is not at all exemplary.

True, non of these corrupt would have been questioned, leave alone being remanded. They would have been shaped as they were ‘Apey Minihas’.

Who is speaking what? Has he forgotten the white vans operations,? What happened to so many

Does he remember the family rule of his time with corruption, fraud and misrule? Now, he is talking about vengeful politics as if no one was harrassed during his time. Then he must be suffering from dementia or similar sickness.

Mahinda is just being loyal to those who are loyal to him, it is a great quality you failed to appreciate. Look Mervyn Silva. Didn’t he betray his step brothers just after the loss of elections.

Huh, Good Governance? A lesson from a shoddy crook on governance! First pay back all the assets you and your family stripped from this country, and confess to all the crimes that your family and criminal hatchetmen did for you and under your name. Then we might listen to you!

No need to return the loot. He single-handedly vanquished LTTE. The people ought to be grateful to him and his clan forever. The voters showed their gratitude when 48% voted him.

Saffron clad thug Galagodaththe Gnanasara is back in action:
Circular on Tamil national anthem unconstitutional: BBS
2015-03-19
Daily Mirror
The Bodu Bala Sena (BBS) organisation today emphasised that issuing a circular to let the National Anthem be sung in the Tamil language violates the constitution.
The General Secretary of the BBS, Ven. Galagodaththe Gnanasara Thera said the entire statement, made by the Leader of the Democratic People’s Front (DPF) Mano Ganesan was unconstitutional and President Maithripala Sirisena could not issue a circular because it was against the constitution.
He alleged that even the Prime Minister and the National Executive Council (NEC) had been appointed violating the constitution and now the President could not allow the National Anthem to be sung in Tamil by using a circular. He said the current government was trying to create new problems by making these kinds of statements and as a national organisation the BBS was condemning this proclamation.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror, the Executive Director of the BBS, Dilantha Withanage said according to the constitution the government has to have a referendum and seek the people’s views to change the language of the National Anthem.
He said that changing the language of the National Anthem would not solve the communal problems in Sri Lanka, and the government has to think and take more wise decisions for the country’s future.(Yoshitha Perera)

This man plundered the country, and the Foreign Minister has sought the help of the IMF and the Central Bank of India to find out this where he has put away all that he and his family have plundered. This imbecile has no shame and has the timerity to talk about good governance. Instead of getting the help of the IMF, he should be taken to the 4th Floor, tortured if necessary, to find where he has hidden the plundered wealth.
And he calls himself a true patriot.
