I Am Not Scared Of Chest Beaters: Maithripala Sirisena

President Maithripala Sirisena has declared that he is not scared of chest beaters, and no matter who tries to conspire to topple the government, no one can change the government till the next parliamentary elections in 5 years.

MaithripalaAddressing the 19th National Convention of the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress in Ampara on Saturday, Sirisena said, “Recently someone told a rally in Colombo to let him take over the government so he can rule the country again. He was beating his chest while saying this. We saw how this person ruled the country; even I was part of his government at one point. But, I am not scared of anyone who beats their chest, that was why I left and formed my own government.”

Sirisena, who was the chief guest at the event, also said that those who were defeated by the masses will remain defeated.

“Today there is freedom in the country to hold protest marches, rallies and meetings, and none of the leaders who organize these events have to worry about being abducted by white vans, or their homes been stoned. Today everyone and anyone has the freedom to voice their opinions including disapproval, and don’t have to live in fear,” Sirisena said.

Speaking further on the recent nationwide blackouts and the subsequent power cuts for almost a week, the President said that according to the Ceylon Electricity Board engineers, the current situation has happened because none of the power machinery has been upgraded over the past ten years. “This is why the country has had to undergo such a situation,” he added.

    If Mahinda Rajapakse is really for the country and for the people, he can do the same thing unofficially with UPFA politicians who are in this yahapalana govt.

    It looks what Mahinda Rajapakse wants to do is protecting his family’s ill gotten assets by becoming the Sri lankan leader again.

    Be destroying the country he handed over himself to his enemies.

    A selfish man with a humongous ego.

      Mahinda Rajapakse was never be really honest to the country, people, security or unity of this country. He is a schemer who understands the weakness of Sinhalese people. He is a supporter of JVP terrorism in 1989 and went to UN against our security forces. He who handed over billions ransom to buy internal and external politicians to destroy the Nation. He and his family took all the wealth of this land to create a kindom for his family. Even now he is trying to create a blood bath in the soil for his personal gain. He is very dangerous animal.

        Ajith,
        Just as I responded to Jim Softy do not make allegations without substantive proof. JVP was a product that became a menace through wrong economics then. Not a product of MR. The communist party that used to be the friends of the working class after becoming partners of the “THUN HAWULA” then became powerful ministers. They then tasted luxury with Benz cars and other luxury trappings. The vacuum created then was filled by the JVP. Do not make unsubstantiated allegations. This is what is wrong with people like Jim and you.You may not eve be born then. If so ask your parents.

        Every politician after Dudley era made millions out public money. Getting commissions is built into contact negotiations. What about the good old lady CBK? Everyone knows her past records but you seem to have forgotten her misdeeds and targeting MR and his clan.

        Have you forgotten what the current Governor of Central Bank did? It was white washed by a commission appointed by RW. This guy is still in charge of our money and his signature is on all bank notes. What about the close association of Ravi K with Raj Rajaratnam? Central Bank fiasco will cost us billions for the next thirty years.Nation has to pay interest of over two billion every year. Are these corruptions? After more than year and a half still no evidence of hidden loot. So get the facts first before spurting out like a parrot.

        Stop talk about a kingdom. Soon we may not have a nation to call it an independent nation.

      We are asked to address you ” as president” but you dserve to be called as your excellency president. Why I am telling this is – as your make it very clear.. gone were days that opposition had no right inthis country. But today each any everyone criticise and even go on protest against the rulers. You are dead right sir, to make this clear to this nation. This nation today have all forms of freedom as had not been in the days of Maharajathuma.

      It is the stupidity of Maharajathuma to ask for power again and again. Why cant he be without power ? What can he do MORE in case people would elect him again for the 3 rd term ? All these men that will have all the jail sessions soon will be free from that. Even Mervin will join him seekin the immunity. All in all people shold open their eyes looking at the difference between this and former govt.

        Yes he never wanted BORU SHORK…. show off style the way Mahinda has been. He lives with the realities. He has to handle this being together with both parties. Those who just add their two cts could do it easily, if he would totally oppose those men who were with Raja and now sittting with him – he would create problems withitn SLFP. I think this president is the most valuable person to have paved the way for real reconciliation not only among folks but also among politicians. No white van or black cat culture the like are welcome by him. But he focuses all the aspect of today –

        Like Mahinda Rajakashe he dones not prevaricate similar to his bastard son -Wimal Buruwanse. President Sirisena s speeches are so advanced – I can compare them with most powerful EU men and women mostly. Not just making attacks, but focus to the point. Chest beaters are ticky to turn the attention from the real politics.

          Yes, Mahinda did so, abusing our tax payers funds.

          Alone the manner the bugger abused Helicopter to defend his men – such as Niaml Lanza for example – hanzard reports will help you getting this clearly – was telecasted by ITN and other state channels. Can you imagine ? Rajaakshe should have thought, he would fool the nation so easily.

          It is believed that Peacock Mansion is belonged to Rajapakshe but keeping away from him calling the belongs to that joker -ASP man.

          I believe the kind of politicians should put in jail forever. Then only people could sense, as to why the bugger was jailed. Today or later, the investigators have to go for that. Current govts problemto take loans to gap up the interests of the bills left by Maharaja – is a curse that will create all disharmony within th efolks next.

      Jim Softy,
      I have been reading your postings and you got it wrong again. Your views of RW is clear from your posting. All your postings were innuendo without hard facts. Just gibberish!.

      RW is the most selfish, cunning and arrogant politician we ever had. He is a master escapologist. No doubt he will survive. He is the one that is destroying our economy and the social fabric. We will never be able to get rid of this politician. UNP tried to oust him from leader many a time and failed. Not because he is a good politician but he was a cunning manipulator. I don’t need to go into details.

      The truth is MY3 is stuck between Cliff and the deep blue sea. He is just a mouth piece to keep the drama moving. He is powerless with the west behind RW. He knows if he gives the slightest hint of changing the PM he will be eliminated. That would make RW the automatic choice for presidency ( according to the constitution) just like DB Wijethunga became president. No one is allowed to talk ill against RW. People like Sobitha theracould become student victims of health. Poor Rathana Thera is not to be heard now. All that Yahapalan talking is no more from him and some others. Even the JVP the same except occasional sound bites

      MY3 is aware the majority sinhalese are desperate to oust UNP from power, but he cannot even make an attempt of that. Just like he did not trust MR he does not trust RW but he is powerless and useless.

      The very person destroying SL is RW. Look around the globe. We are in deep trouble with the economy needing money to run the country but countries that went begging to IMF are in dire trouble. That is because it imposes draconian conditions on loan seeking countries that ultimately destroyed them. There are many victims. Read through international news. Greece is the latest. We are a developing nation with a different needs to the west. One coat doesn’t for all.

      I am not saying MR to be the president, but need of the hour is to dump RW and introduce a different strategy to what he and RK is pursuing. We cannot privatise government institutions and put workers onto streets. Unlike in developed countries there are established safety nets to support them. Our workers rely on their jobs whether they are efficient or not. Instead of looking to increase revenue through taxes this wily fox has agreed to increase the monthly allowances of MP’s by Rs.2,00000.00. is this the mark of a honest politician? He knows he has the minority votes in the bag so he is terrorising the majority by way of threats to their jobs and making them subservient. That is my view. Respond if you disagree with facts rather than innuendo. Over to Jim Softy awaiting response.

      President Maithripala Sirisena

      Stealing was main policy and philosophy of former govt of mahinda Rajapaksa Chandrika –

      She is giving support for the song

      MaRa MaRa Chatu Mara
      MaRa Ma AmaNa MaRa
      MaRa MaRa PacHa MaRa
      MaRa MaRa DhuShaNa MaRa

      http://www.adaderana.lk/news/34620/stealing-was-main-policy-and-philosophy-of-former-govt-chandrika#sthash.KIz0AcjG.dpuf

      Former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga says that stealing was the main policy and philosophy of the previous government under Mahinda Rajapaksa and conceded that corrupt individuals still occupy certain sections of the incumbent administration.

      “There are still thieves in certain sections of even this government. I won’t say no.” However, unlike the previous government stealing is not the main policy and philosophy of this government and we will not allow that to happen, she said.

      Addressing an event in Kelaniya today, she said that former President Mahinda Rajapaksa prohibited all MPs, Provincial Councillors and Pradeshiya Sabha members from speaking to her and all the media were banned from even saying her name during his reign.

      Kumaratunga said that she refused to give interviews Sri Lankan media and foreign media during the past 9 years because she would have had to speak about the wrongs committed by the Rajapaksa government.

      She said that none of the party seniors even wanted to know whether she was dead or alive during that period or bothered to even send a card once a year for the fear of losing their posts and seats.

      She stated that if the Rajapaksa government was in power for another year, the country’s economy would have completely collapsed. “It would have been unable to even pay the public sector wages.”

      Kumaratunga stated that the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) was completely ignored and left to its destruction by its then leaders.

        In order to successfully accomplish their POLICY how much atrocities and criminal acts were lashed out at the public…..White Van, Disappearances, arrests and torchers, grease Yakka and what not\ ? How many poor people were killed in Colombo side-walks to modernize the town. What happened to the Hilo grams of looted gold and the wealth collected from KP?

      2016-03-21 08:13:38 8 4587

      Dikwella Police (in the Matara District) have arrested a man who had kept a 15-year-old girl by force and allegedly tortured her, even forcing her to drink urine and beer.

      The girl, who had escaped from him, had complained to the police that she had been assaulted with a wooden pole and an iron rod. She had complained that she was forced to drink beer and urine. She had suffered similar il-usage at his hands, earlier as well.

      Police had recovered the iron rod and other items. The man had kept this girl as his mistress for three months. The suspect, age 21, is a fisherman of the area .

      He is to be produced before the Matara magistrate. The girl had been referred to the Matara Hospital for a medical test and treatment.(Krishan Jeewaka Jayaruk)

    Yes MaRa MaRa Chatu MaRa Amana MaRa and cronies have to wait. Why don’t they fish in the vast Indian Ocean and catch the Fish before the Indians catch the Fish and Export to EU, now that GSP Plus i available?

    “Sirisena, who was the chief guest at the event, also said that those who were defeated by the masses will remain defeated.”

    Yes. They will remain defeated, and will beat theur chests in agony. They should fish, before the Indian catch the fish.

    “Speaking further on the recent nationwide blackouts and the subsequent power cuts for almost a week, the President said that according to the Ceylon Electricity Board engineers, the current situation has happened because none of the power machinery has been upgraded over the past ten years. “This is why the country has had to undergo such a situation,” he added.”

    However, the Mahinda Rajapaks Family and his crones Bank Accounts both Local and Foreign have been upgraded.

Today everyone and anyone has the freedom to voice their opinions including disapproval, and don’t have to live in fear,”

    We are well aware they are not fearing to chest beaters. But certainly fearing to Old Royals. Right after the Hyde Park meeting, New King has said again that he is not allowing the Foreign Judges and Lawyers in the war crime investigation. He can talk and talk, but it is only hiding the whole pumpkin in pebble of rice. Nobody prepared to believe these people. Specially, not the Tamils, who brought him to power. A clearly drafted resolution has been signed by Sri lanka in Geneva in September, 2015. His government has co-signed it. If it’s not asking for foreign Judges’ and lawyers’ participation, why is he talking about that subject repeatedly? The truth is, it is asking for, but as usual, the Sinhala Intellectuals’ government fooling the whole world by denying to participate the Foreign Judges and Lawyers. They are terrified of bringing the outsiders. Who is terrifying them? The war criminals, the Old Royals.

    They are claiming the previous appointments are not allowing proper functioning of their government or implementing the law and order, a systematic justice system. Right after they came to power they fired Mokan Peiris and next day Shirani Bandaranayake. In Vidya’s case, now her mother’s lawyers have withdrawn themselves from the case by the treat of UNP thugs in North and Colombo. The access to murders’ DNA report has been denied to Punkkudu Theevu Judge. After so much of struggle, as the part of suppressing the judgment to the family, now the case has been moved out of Punkudu Theevu. Last time the criminals had threatened the mother inside her neighborhood court. How that woman is going attend the case going that far? She is not allowed to have lawyers by UNP thugs in Colombo. Whom do these people are fooling? So far none of the young girls, murdered in the north are investigated. If they are not scared of Chest Beaters, are these people are extreme racist not to investigate the Northern murders only?

    He is talking about white van abduction. Can he tell us something more of it. When did he see one white van? Whom he thinks operated these van? What did he do to these operators. How many of them the police has arrested. I tell something, the truth is this guy is better storyteller than Williams Shakespeare. He is still part of the White Van gang if he is not willing to do anything about those who operated it. If so, he can not investigate Internally the war crime if he has not find originator of the White Van abductions which he is accepting as crime but refusing to punish. There is no more better of a chest beaters than this guy.

    Which is the truth about the power failures?

    1. Sabotage
    2. No upgrading
    3. Poor maintenance
    4. Bad management
    5. A combination of above.

    Please instruct your ministers and officials not to open their big mouths until they know why.

    We thought you had the capacity to become a statesman, but you are reverting back to what you really are- a two penny politician.

        SB dissanayake as a Scialist services minister stole from the social services and made the Female Secretary to leave the in order to hide the charges. In the sports ministry he was advancing to rape an athlete. How did he build his house, sent his children overseas for education is it all with what he earned rightfully ?

Do you think the FCID, justice system, Police or for any other legitimate organizations are vested with well stipulated strategies and investigative methodologies, A PERIODIC FINANCIAL BUDGET/ scope of audit, TIME Frame for completion for investigations, expected reports and fool proof evidences. More over, the personnel involved in the investigations ought to get personal protections and appropriate power and authority to real with the SUBJECT CRIMINALS.

    “Those who were defeated by the masses will remain defeated”. This may be so in civilised societies where leaders of men committed to principles remain so.

    In Sri Lanka unprincipled men who snatched power from Ranil through the foulest means of bribery will not remain idle. Dishonest people suspected to have doctored the election in 2010 will not remain inactive.

    Derided by the people as corruption incarnate, will be over active in conspiracy when they are treated as innocent by the President, the Prime Minister and the government, not serving an indictment even.

      Patriot, It is so obvious that the cheers you see in the video is a spontaneous response to what he said and not a ‘on cue response’ as you suggest. Being Muslims, they were put under the sword by the previous regime and collectively they were instrumental in pulling it off to bring genuine change with MS to the helm. If not for their overwhelming support including all of the minority votes put together, we would have still be in the doldrums. As such they are perfectly entitled to have his eminent presence to address them just as much as anyone else in the country. His message is for the entire country as the media was in full attendance, and he knew that in advance. When the President speaks at any event, he addresses the whole country, not to one group or section of the population, since his writ runs through the entire country, including all of its maritime boundaries. Don’t belittle people by referring to them in derogatory terms, as it just shows you in bad light, not as a true Patriot. Your slip is showing.

    A good response to the challenges thrown to MS and his young government. But he must act smart and shrewd by putting in place a layer of loyal informers who will the first line of defense, whistle blowers to expose undermining activities with intent to destabilize, going on under his leadership, specially from within his own party. He is seen to be genuine and sincere in his efforts to unite the country and bring in prosperity for one and all. His ultimate goal is to prove a point ‘it can be done without the hate and violence, instead through genuine effort and love for for the well-being of all the country’s citizens, rather than through their selfish love to line their own pockets only’. This is what he wants to leave as his legacy, when it is time to leave at the end his term of office. Now it is time that MS and RW stop protecting those crooks, but let the law take its own course now that they have failed to keep to their end of the bargain to maintain the peace. It is clear that theirs is confrontation politics and they must be made to pay dearly the price for it. It is only then the people will come to realize the true extent of damage these crooked politicians have done to this country by robbing and plundering almost from all of its resources.

    Dear Mr. President!
    You are talking about chest beating here but we are talking about drum beating by you, Hon PM and all Yahapalana ministers and MPs!
    Honestly, what we have been experiencing for the last 14 months in Sri Lanka is mere drum beating! We heard and believed that Yahapalanaya would be the panacea for all ills!
    How many Sri Lankans now say corruption or no corruption, many positive things for the country, nation, and all in general happened during Mr. Rajapaksa’s time in addition to the victor over terrorims. Probably it was his luck as the President of a tough time in our history! However, he knew crisis management and managed almost every crisis carefully without passing the buck to the general public. He was a people’s president and that’s what we always expect from a national leader!
    During the P/election, we remember you blame Mr. Rajapaksa for your failures too; you were the Health Minister but you said you were handicapped and could not do anything due to Mr. Rajapaksa’s high hand. You are the President now! Please tell me a single sector (including health) that has improved during your 14 month rule? Even your Health Minister does not rely on our health system and had to be sent to Singapore for treatments. Are you planning to send every sick citizen of SL to Singapore? Is that how you plan to improve the Health sector under Yahapalanaya?
    You may quote certain legislation, parliamentary acts and independent commissions but in practice those are limited to books; culprits in your government do the same as those under the Rajapaksas had been doing before. If you don’t believe me just read Infolanka.com and TC’s recent articles on your ministers to refresh your mind.
    You yourself turned a blind eye to your ministers’ misuse of power and authority because they were your friends or the friends of the Premier. Some threaten journalists and use unprintable swears to address professionals! Your foreign minister has ridiculed you in front of foreign politicians and media. I would not say anything about nepotism here!
    Please don’t take me wrong! The poor people in Sri Lanka can wait; honestly, they waited some 30 years for a leader with a spine to appear and finish the war! When they relied on you to say ‘good bye’ to that leader, they were concerned; many doubted, but the majority thought you must have at least learnt how to tackle serious issues from that leader. I thought personally that you could even train the inexperienced UNP with that knowledge.
    I’m sorry to say this but now I understand why you failed as a minister under the Rajapaksas!
    Yesterday’s Hyde Park crowd is not just chest beaters! They can easily become egg beaters!! My request to you is simple: please try your best not to become an egg!

      who are this ” we”.

      People with brains are doing their job- and the ones like you being caught by the germ will take few more time.

      Ruwan – please give us a break man. Truth will succeed.
      Alone attack this humble President who is more human than your god father is a curse. Wait and see how all these would you turn on you soon.
      We can understand the situation you are fallen in. That is no far from North koreans.
      At the time their leadres were dead, people were forced to shed tears remember ? To the very same manner or some different versions, Rajaakshe thakkadiyasa fed the innocient poor who are the most gullible /vulnerable folks of the nations whose votes are the gem for Raja are being manipulated from day one. Those men live in Hambantota may be happy with RD – but no nothing has been done to their pockets, thought price hikes caused by huge loans settings will make their life even worst.
      Those who cant afford those RD – how can they survive.
      Like frogs in wells, you can not promote your view any further. At least few of them are accessed to google today and they may teach their folks further that the way Rajaakshes kith and kin worked ruined this nation dragging to all abusive levels.

    Mr.President,
    You are a wise person.
    Not like foolish Mahinda Rajapaksa.

    You are respected by all communities in our country.
    It did not happened in the past.

    Fortunately Mahinda was not able to disturb voters in January 08th 2015.
    Many people….specially in the North very freely casted their votes for the wild regime.

    People are fortunate in Srilanka and Mahinda Rajapaksa was defeated and people’s president Mr. Maithreepala Sirisena was elected.

    May you live long.
    God Bless you…..Mr.President

        It is all because those poor people are intoxicated by all the lies sowed by Rajapakshe media men. None of them would raise the question about Electric chair today. Becaues those poor folks have no brains. Goo filled their skulls should finally get the sense the manner this filthy man did to the nation.
        Lanken folks are predominated by illiterate. They are just for the books. They dont have brains, they would do anything even rape for a rice packet. Raju, you cant be better to give them a life, please rethink and change your mind set at least for the sake of future of the nation.
        Mr.Sirisena allowed you law and order respecting society today.
        But MR conrtolled it by using his thuggery. Raju may be a kasipu man to have added the kind of thoughts. Good luck

      Exactly.

      These idiots cant get it yet Mahindara Jarapakshe was defeated by PEOPLE s power not once twice or more.
      Now people have woken up from there long slumber- i heard known to me asking ” really, this man has grabed that much of billions- were those our money etc”.
      I simply believe the bunch of the journalists that run lanken tabloids would change their way towards at least 49% percent unbiasedness – in the days to come. Then the stupidiy Buruwanse led folks would get it within few days, that bugger et al – looted as nothing could go further. Now uttering all the lies to manipulate the masses – knowing that is the only way for their blood sucking politics, Rajapakshes is going after his men. These families will be made as high criminal families of the this country we never had in the past. Money grabs and making every efforts to paint the better picture- make it even worst. Like killing some one and the dead bodies are also being smashed and taken to their joy – these buggers are pietyless- not the least respect to anyone. This country has been dragged to a all society erosions, giving thugs a place rather than the educated ones. This was the result since the most idiotic man allowed ” ape miniha” to go and live above the laws.
      My mother left us, few months ago, our ownproperties had been taken illegally by all thugs that worked with Nortars for their advantages.
      Where had been the law in this country during Meehraka Rajaakshe ? I cant close my eyes even today- knowin that justice was not made to my mother who always thought the justice should be given the priority- I can prove the bugger et al did more harm than the good to this nation. It was like fishing on muddy waters.
      pEOPLE wake up – Rajpaakshes are all abusive men of lanken soil. Basta

    Just shouting is not enough. Act decisively. Punish all the rogues of the previous government including your own SLFP ministers ASAP. Then you will be able to save the country from anarchy. Otherwise the Rajapaksa rogues will replace your government very soon. People will back them if they get fed up with you.

    Dear Mr. President: ” I am not Scared of Chest Beaters”. Of course NOT; because they are very VISIBLE and OPEN enemies. But how about those “HOLLOW FRIENDS” who are in your “Inner Circle”? I do not wish to name them here, because there are very MANY; but DAHAM, in his comment above has named ONE of them. Please remember the reasons for the “Down Fall” of the previous President and that was mainly because of those HOLLOW FRIENDS – now “HOVERING” around you. Those “Chest Beatings” are one among many of the TACTICS that would be adopted in the near future not only to make you think “TWICE” but to “Inject a FEAR PSYCHOSIS” into the Law Enforcement Agencies and most definitely to the Judiciary. So be AWARE and BEWARE.

      This will also be the case for many issues in the country. There is no maintenance. Those highways will also meet with this the kind problems in the future if no maintennce would be the case.

      We can save the life of the many if this govt would see it going through all the channels.

      ” athi garu, athiuthuma, and the like titles ” Gone were the days, bitches sons abused the nation asking poor folks to call them as ” Athi garu ” ” athi uthum etc”. Now our president and PM are just two citizens that are elected by folks to work for us. This alone makes him SO HUMBLE…

      Placards of the kin dof displays are not his likes. He is totally a different person. He must not be a royalist so long he behaves so humble and attached to the people.

    It is useless talking like a brave man Mr President, Rajapaksa is openly challenging you everywhere he goes.
    And now he wants you to give back the power to him to rule since he thinks you are a lame duck President.
    Having the power , why can’t you put the defeated Rajapaksa in his place and send him and his men to the
    Place where he would have sent you ,if he had won .
    You should be a dictator to people like him.
    The people who voted you to this place are with you, so you should be ruling with a iron hand ,Mr president.

    President Sirisena,

    RE: Muslim’s Comment.Very Relevant. Watch out!

    Have you read Niccolò Machiavelli? If not give below is the reference and the links.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prince

    The Prince

    The Prince is sometimes claimed to be one of the first works of modern philosophy, especially modern political philosophy, in which the effective truth is taken to be more important than any abstract ideal. It was also in direct conflict with the dominant Catholic and scholastic doctrines of the time concerning how to consider politics and ethics.

    Although it is relatively short, the treatise is the most remembered of Machiavelli’s works and the one most responsible for bringing the word “Machiavellian” into usage as a pejorative. It also helped make “Old Nick” an English term for the devil, and even contributed to the modern negative connotations of the words “politics” and “politician” in western countries. In terms of subject matter it overlaps with the much longer Discourses on Livy, which was written a few years later. In its use of near-contemporary Italians as examples of people who perpetrated criminal deeds for politics, another lesser-known work by Machiavelli which The Prince has been compared to is the Life of Castruccio Castracani.

    The descriptions within The Prince have the general theme of accepting that the aims of princes—such as glory and survival—can justify the use of immoral means to achieve those ends:( That is what Mahinda Rajapaksa is doing and what he tried to do)

    He who neglects what is done for what ought to be done, sooner effects his ruin than his preservation.

    Mr President show some leadership.You have seen how this government led my
    Batalanda Ranil can not govern.The original budget that were bought down by
    the Sathosa Hora RaviK is amended so far and the only thing that is yet to amend
    in that budget is the words Honourable Speaker.That must be the first in the
    world.Ranil can not govern the country.Every time Ranil comes through to power
    and mainly through back door he messes up the country.He can not run even a chuck raffel yet along run the country.Please do us a favour and please get
    rid of this useless man as the Prime Minister.At least then Unp being the Major
    party in your National Unity goverment can appoint someone with a vision to
    be the Prime Minister of the country. And also do not forget to get rid of the
    useless woman Chandrika from you party

    An annual budget is better than no budget.

    MR as the Finance Minister he did not submit a budget to the parliament for more than two and a half years. I suppose it took him that long to cook the books.

    If budget is passed without amendments then there is something wrong with the way the country is run, this happens only in a dictatorship. In a democracy budget is debated, amendments made and then passed with majority support.

    instead of chest beaters,siri should be afraid of arse lickers.Beware of those who praise you and consider those who criticise as your friends.This might sound strange,but those who praise put you to sleep as what happened to MR and VP,while those who criticise wake you up and make you aware of your failings.

    The Mathripala Sirisena the elected President has no political history in SLFP has done substantial services to our nation during his over 40 years his politics life in SLFP – Lanka!

    How then he become President of Sri Lanka ? There is question left in our history that the post-colonial era ( 1948 – 2015 January 9th ) how is that Sirisena has been elected President of Island to done nothing our nation?

    On what grounds people has be decided Sirisena-MS been President of the our country !

    His politics and his act of shifting line national interest into
    Neo-colonial politics, that Indian manipulated or change SLFP into UNP- separatism politics of devolution of Island is main cause to be elected President of Island!!

    This is that the new political agenda of Indian by intervention of Sri lanka, by and large that after 1987 Indian IPKF being to occupy an Island by Indian HC of governs and RAW servicers .

    Is that Indian’s big bourgeoisie geostrategic and political perception that future in Asia and Indian ocean politics of monsoon by as agent of MS in his helm in state, which is his role of politics been undertaken by MS indeed?

    Well, verse political thinking tanks and their ground reality of analysis said that there is no argument MS has no background of ‘politics of democratic credentials and calibre’, and while that his elites roots of politics in past 49 years of survival in Sri Lankan type of “democracy”.

    What is MS’s political equity ? Nothing.

    1 The mobility of politics of democracy not his own!

    2 The marginal efficiency of Presidential election 2015 January 9th not his own!!

    3 The movement of democracy and political is not his own!!!

    4 Indeed in fact says capitalization of all political-economic/social an issues are foreign born and locally nexus of UNP-originated by back by TNA, JVP and Muslim Congress .

    MS is currently status of Nominal President ,he speak read and express not his won ,last 16 months he act totally auxiliary or instrumental of Indian and US of political circulating.

    In fact last 16 months as President of SL that his political accumulation is nothing New policy of “Divide and Rule of country” and divided his former party of Sri Lankan Freedom Party to maintain status core of so-called “Nation Coalition” back by USA-CIA and Indian -RAW and alliance with UNP, CBK, TNA, Muslim Congress and JVPs.

    I wish to concluded my comment by Rohan Guntahana says. book of Indian Intervention;

    ” after sinning of the controversial Indo-Lank Accord of July 1987,thr formidable LTTE, the major recipient of Indian assistance, declared war against the Indian forces deployed in Sri lanka. The ethnic war since 1977(Not that 1983 my added-1977) two years of bitter fighting between the Indian Army and the ruthless LTTE, and a bloody war between the anti-Indian JVP and the Sri Lankan forces in the South killed 60,000 men, women and children in the once resplendent isle of Sri lanka……In May 1989 the LTTE aligned themselves with President R.Premadasa the successor to President JR Jayawaradana in withdrawing the IPKF and decimating the TNA , Indian’s proxy army..”

    The role of MS is cater for the UNP, CBK, TNA, MC and current JVP leadership are allied with New Indian proxy army of RAW and BJP regime in centre of power in New Delhi. That is day of politics of democracy in Sri lanka.

    What a pathetic President is this..

    “No maintenance or upgrade of Equipment far the last 10 years was the cause of Power Cuts”.

    Shouldn’t the President sack his f****** Body guard and former Minister of Power for incompetence at least, if he can’t persecute him for trying to escape from a motor vehicle accident without stopping to help the victim.

      Sumane you are more pathetic than the New King. You have have measured it many times with your own conscience. Then what is point of hiding it and baffling yourself, again and again. Champika ran out of the accident to avoid being sued. His doing and hiding is the culture he is trained in trained by his old boss. For that, please don’t blame him. But isn’t he, after that, many times voiced against prosecuting the war heros. Isn’t that tells he is still in your camp even though in new Royals. He shows better conscience and faith in his actions than you or your boss. Even though he has bodily got out of it, mentally he couldn’t be out the sweetness of rotten, kunu fish market smell that your boss rules. Does he? This is what the patriotism your gang preach. He is still an ardent follower of it.

      He ran out of an accident. At least one person was badly hurt in that incident. You want to have him sued for that. Well that is the criminal justice system of a democratic country. There is nothing wrong on your side to demand Champika to answer for his action of leaving an accident site. It was only an accident. He could have stayed and accounted for the accident. It was unlikely, it would be turned into a crime when he is a minister in Lankawe cabinet. His actions has made it a crime. That is traits he inherited from Old Royals. But, if Champika has to be sued for that accident, here a theoretical question for your answer is, what kind of a treatment you suggest to some people who have killed 150,000 with intentionally using even chemical weapons? Don’t thinks of any particular people in your mind. In your hand, take a balance of its beam leveled. Tie your eye with a black ribbon. cover yourself with an angelical apporon. Then please answer the question.

      You have a serious problem in your heart. It urgently needs a transplant surgery for you to move in within the community of the human beings.
