MR To Contest August Elections

Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa today said he would contest the upcoming general election.

Addressing a gathering at his hometown Medamulana he said “People’s requests asking me to contest cannot be ignored”. Rajapaksa however did not say under which political party he will be contesting but he urged representatives of other political parties to rally around him as they did in 2005.

Since the January defeat, SLFP Snubs, Wimal Weerawansa, Vasudeva Nanayakkara, Udaya Gammanpila and Dinesh Gunawardena have been campaigning for Rajapaksa and said that their intention is filing former President Mahinda Rajapaksa as the Prime Ministerial candidate at the upcoming general elections.

    Stop this man ?????????????

    He is a runaway train……….. he has been let off the hook as Ranil wanted to be the permanent Leader of the Opposition with no hassle.

    Has ranil ever audited the UNP receives at every election?
    When was the last time UNP conducted an audit into its finances.

    Jaffnian laugh at thye Colombians seeing their pea brains.

        The SLFP will be purged off all its most vile, corrupt, uneducated politicians when MR goes contests the elections on his own..

        This will be the best thing to happen to the SLFP which MR had filled with thugs and criminals!

        Maithripala Sirisena’s SLFP or the post Mahinda Jarapassa SLFP will be able to form a winning coalition with UNP and minority parties and have a de facto national govt. and pass the 20th amendment and clean up political culture and democracy in Lanka!

          This a great opportunity to Clean Up MaRa and his cronies. MaRa and the cronies should contest on the M-CRAP ticket.

          They will know. The election and polling data can be used too estimate accurately the Modaya, Mootal and Fool percentage in Sri Lanka.

    Rajapaksa and his band of 40 thieves must be stopped at any cost from usurping power. Maithri should forget about the SLFP and concentrate on saving the country from another spell of Rajapaksa rule that will be disastrous to the country and its people.

    Also,if Rajapaksa comes to power again Sirisena and his family will end up in jail or worse, ending up 6 feet under. So it is important for Maithri and the country that Rajapaksa is defeated at any cost.

    What is obvious is that MR will not be allowed to contest as the PM candidate from the UPFA. That will be the end of the UPFA and the MEP will pull out. The only option will be for MR to contest from the MEP along with some of those MPs who currently support him. Then again most who support MR are known corrupt and would jeopardize the chances of the MEP also as this is not a Presidential election and those individuals will drive some of the MEP vote out as well. All in all MEP will end up as a miserable failure along with MR. To avoid this calamity if the MEP denies nominations to some of the known crooks who are supporters of MR, it will further fragment the vote. Such drop outs will not receive nominations from the SLFP also. Mark my word, the day of Nominations will send these MR supporters in to further chaos not knowing their plight, as each will have to look after one’s own seat and not of MR’s. There will be high fun with a dog eating dog situation. I believe UNP will end up with over 120 MPs comfortably and Ranil Wickremasinghe will be the PM who has promised to form yet another National govt. to stop corruption and waste. What is happening to MR is nothing but retribution for the crude things he did to oust RW from the UNP. Serves the Bugger right.

    He will lose badly. Ranil will sweep the polls . I hope the JVP gets at least 20 seats to keep the,UNP and UFPA horas in check. It’s clear RW wanted the election because of the COPE report. Malick and gang were gayly as in happily celebrating the greatest heist of all time and the COPE report ended gay as in happy robbery.

      I have all the confidence that Mahinda will win. He must win to secure Sri Lanka in the world map.

      When I met him before his defeat he showed all the signs of a leader who could take forward Sri Lanka.

      I many join him in the election campaign.

          You can say all what you want and yet nothing has been proven or charged
          as such. After his defeat they wanted to drown him with all malicious
          accusations and also went after his siblings and offsprings as well as his wife and where is the the report of these investigations ? In fact there is none and they, the government and the FCID were chasing a wild goose.
          Anyway it is upto the people to decide when the day comes. It is the people who hold the key, they are the judge and the jury.

          Best of luck to who ever is elected BY THE PEOPLE.

          You Rajash have serious difficulties in understanding very crucial issues. This is why we get into unnecessary arguments. Please refocus your mind.

          Mahinda has to put his bad name right by doing everything possible to address the difficult issues sensibly.

          He is a great guy, who has un-mitigating support of China and Russia. He will make Sri Lanka heaven.

          We must give him another chance.

              Rajash

              You are fully aware of my engagement with Mahinda and you did not have issues until in these CT debate.

              Why are you putting a different posture now?

              Sinhala masses in majority will vote for Mahinda.

              Even minorities are disgruntled with Maithiri and Ranil. They are not going to have a field day like 8/1.

              Why don’t you bet on the winning horse than the losing one. Mahinda is better, better and the best known than the little and better known Maithiri and Ranil.

              If you listen to my advise to support Mahinda I will get something for you when he is elected. Without wasting your time writing garbage in the CT, you can do something constructive in Sri Lanka.

                  Nothing is impossible. So long as you successfully play the right game not only EElam anything you want can be achieved.

                  Rajash, Eelam cannot be achieved by the gun. This was your juvenile thinking then. Now you are a mature man and if you come with me, I will show you the way by politically engaging with leaders to avhieve Eelam.

                  My fist task or bet will be Mahinda.

    Aiyo, somebody from that famous 5 star hotel in Colombo that hosted the event to celebrate the Queens birthday please serve some butter to the people in the picture of this article.

    Serve them in excess so that they will be put out of commission.

    Just think about it…if the people in that picture don’t exist anymore, almost all our problems will be over.

    Of course there are others but they are smaller fish…plus some of them prefer Lemon Puff to butter…

    Mahinda’s announcement gave us a ray of hope of a bright future and assurance that he will take care of ALL THE ABOVE which brought us anxiety and fear for the past 6 months of the peril the country was heading for.

    Our love for Mahinda Rajapaksa is unconditional and limitless. President Sirisena, the high jacker Prime Minister and all the buffoons in UNP, JVP, HELA KARUMAYA, SLMC, TNA, SLFP, etc., should know that we love Mahinda Rajapaksa as much as we love our beautiful country.

    We rally around Mahinda Rajapaksa with national pride and come forward as one, hand in hand with Wimal, Dinesh, Vasu and Udaya, the VANGUARD of “Bring Back Mahinda”campaign in order to DEFEAT the Prime Minister Ranil Wickremasinghe and his party UNP (former minority government) who were responsible for ALL the ABOVE-MENTIONED enmities, bitterness and antipathy against our country and especially Sinhalese Buddhists.

      Champa ,

      i didn’t bother to read your kilometre long harangue as it was extremely boring, in a nutshell , what you attempted to say is , Bring back MR to save SL from LTTE , right ? for your information , LTTE cow and MR’s hypothetical “Electric chair ” had been sold out long time ago , only racists and dim wits would agree with your LTTE bogey , MR and his gang of thieves have no possible justifications for re-entering the fray other than his LTTE scaremongering panacea , wait another few weeks to witness the complete elimination of Rajapakse dynasty from the political map of sri Lanka.

      PS: MY3 and Ranil have completely let us down , we 6.2 Million people had sent a very clear message to Rajapakse dynasty , that was ” no more rajapakses ” , regret to hear not only MY3 but also ranil are said to have secret deals to save Rajapakse family from the inevitable , make no mistake , we the general public know how to respond for such calamities , just wait until 18 of August to see who is right , remember 8 th of January ? this is going to be the repetition of 8 jan or the extension of 8 th jan .

        You and all the others like you have to wake up from your slumber. Many things happened after January 8. THERE WILL NEVER BE A REPETITION OF JANUARY 8 IN SRI LANKA AGAIN. People have already realized their MISTAKE and ready to CORRECT it at their first opportunity.

        Mahinda Rajapaksa is the ‘NEW PHENOMENON’ in Sri Lanka. Millions and Millions of people have embraced the leadership of Mahinda Rajapaksa and waited for an opportunity to show the world that as to how much they love him and as to how much MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA means TO SRI LANKA. As the popular saying goes, “Mahinda is not a name, but a country”.

        You are lucky I confined to my ‘long harangue’in one kilometre. I have so many more things to ADD to the list of what this traitorous “Good Governance” government did to our country just in “6 months”.

        Nobody can stop Mahinda Rajapaksa. Sirisena, I heard that even threatened to IMPRISON Mahinda and his children, if he comes back to politics.

        The puppet President or high-jacker Prime Minister or his minority government or USA or UK or any other Western countries or CIA or India or RAW or LTTE terrorists or UNP murderers, CAN’T STOP Mahinda’s COMING BACK. They should LET Sri Lankan people ENJOY THEIR DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS, freely.

        People in Sri Lanka are more determined than never before. People’s power is ABOVE any other power. If people want to democratically ELECT MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA to the Parliament, NOBODY can stop that.

        I am telling this VERY LOUD and CLEAR. Don’t even think of trying to stop people from exercising their democratic right to elect anybody THEY WANT. If anyone is thinking of “taking Mahinda’s life” to stop him ‘coming back’, THEY SHOULD better THINK AGAIN.

          Mahinda is hallozinated as his supporters across the country. He could not even sense that he would be defeated at the time he called for election. Now being in the same mode, to try to return to poiltics with hung on the same bunch – will totally be rejected by majority folks in the next election. Wait and see. Srilal and the golden son o fthis nation worked hard to drive away Rajapakshes from the their cruel politics. THAT is what we experienced on the the 8th Januaray. So, onece defeated will not take ground again, just because you the few repeatedly try to get him back for your lead. Besides, he had two terms.. to prove his genuinity.. but did he ? No people with brains allow this bugger to suck again. God save srialnka.

          Champa,

          Thank you Champa for being a clown and for endless empty threats , what a joke , please continue to provide your free entertainment to the fellow readers as well.now let’s see what we got here ,

          “You and all the others like you have to wake up from your slumber. Many things happened after January 8. THERE WILL NEVER BE A REPETITION OF JANUARY 8 IN SRI LANKA AGAIN. People have already realized their MISTAKE and ready to CORRECT it at their first opportunity.”

          so , you think we have been sleeping since 8 th Jan , hell no , we are carefully observing how MY3 and Ranil protecting the Mafia family ,Mahinda’s attempt to grab the power again is no surprise at all for us , in fact he had tried it on the very first day which was in the wee hours of 9 th morning , then through the parliament and now with the election. will see how this one time dictator going to abuse state resources , Military , police, media and money this time ? before 8 th Jan , virtually he had every thing at his disposal , still we won , didn’t we Champa ? this time round poor soul hasn’t got any of those luxuries at his fingertips , not even a proper political party ! what has he got now ? gang of thieves , murders, rapists , criminals and Billions of stolen money , game is on , will have to wait and see the obvious champa.

          “Mahinda Rajapaksa is the ‘NEW PHENOMENON’ in Sri Lanka. Millions and Millions of people have embraced the leadership of Mahinda Rajapaksa and waited for an opportunity to show the world that as to how much they love him and as to how much MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA means TO SRI LANKA. As the popular saying goes, “Mahinda is not a name, but a country”.”

          ‘NEW PHENOMENON’ ? he has been there since 2005 , what is new in him now ? obviously, still there are few thousands of dim wits worshipping the biggest rouge whom we claimed as the president of SL. champa you are damn right on this “Mahinda is not a name, ” absolutely , he is not just a name , he is the worst walking disaster which SL have ever produced in recent history, his legacy still lingers .

          “You are lucky I confined to my ‘long harangue’in one kilometre. I have so many more things to ADD to the list of what this traitorous “Good Governance” government did to our country just in “6 months”. “

          Am i lucky ? have i won a lottery or something ? if you think i’m lucky just because you didn’t write kilometres long nonsense , just check the dictionary for the definition . as i told you earlier , you provide free entertainment as Dayan used to do here , but nobody bothered to read , so champa please be my guest , do write kilometres long junk , rest assured no body would even bothered to respond to you.

          “Nobody can stop Mahinda Rajapaksa. Sirisena, I heard that even threatened to IMPRISON Mahinda and his children, if he comes back to politics”

          Regardless he comes or not , man doesn’t deserve to live freely , law will take of him and his extended family .

          “The puppet President or high-jacker Prime Minister or his minority government or USA or UK or any other Western countries or CIA or India or RAW or LTTE terrorists or UNP murderers, CAN’T STOP Mahinda’s COMING BACK. They should LET Sri Lankan people ENJOY THEIR DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS, freely.”

          i couldn’t agree more with you on that , let SL people enjoy their democratic rights which Mahinda never let for his people during his tenure.

          “People in Sri Lanka are more determined than never before. People’s power is ABOVE any other power. If people want to democratically ELECT MAHINDA RAJAPAKSA to the Parliament, NOBODY can stop that. “

          Again , spot on .

          “I am telling this VERY LOUD and CLEAR. Don’t even think of trying to stop people from exercising their democratic right to elect anybody THEY WANT. If anyone is thinking of “taking Mahinda’s life” to stop him ‘coming back’, THEY SHOULD better THINK AGAIN. “

          Ha ha ………… Champa you being very funny , who stopped Tamil people voting in 2005 ? who had tried to stop Ranil , FM Sarath F and MY3 being elected ? taking Mahinda’s life ? Champa you need immediate professional help , please seek some advice ! who wants to waste a bullet on MR , we want MR to live his full life as a guest of the walikada prison , not just him , his entire family deserves that royal treatment .

            You said nobody want to respond to me, but you, yourself wrote a ‘long harangue’ for me.

            For your information, unlike others, I am not writing for responses. I don’t care whether people respond or not. If I ever reply to somebody’s comment addressed to me by name, it is because I have to say something more.

            I am making comments because I want to place on record certain things. I am not making idle comments like you. I have a purpose.

      Chumpa, you say that “All this time, people have been pleading him to come back and save the country “, then why do you think he was unceremoniously dumped by a majority of citizens at the last election?

      If you don’t know, I’m sure that many of the comments above will enlighten you. Wake up and get yourself a reality check.

      Yeah, also add: To allow this antha horaa to plunder national assets for his personal family benefit and to squirrel away in foreign banks abroad for all his future generations.

      The basket deserves hanging!

      Not people but the thugs that are now blood thirsty want Rajapakshe to come back.

      Rajapakse once cheated by a lowl level astrolger plays with his own men today, painting the picture… gullible voters will fall on his tricks again. For them YAHApalanaya is nothing but just the crime friendly.. cutlrue.. when it goes for me and the educated, This man Mahinda should be hung by his balls for all the crime and deeds done against the humanity.
      TNA, UNP, SLFP good fracton, JVP, social forces of all kind stand against crime and injustice will support next election to elect good ones. Latter is clear. Mahina will be goo defeated for sure. You can fool the very same nation again and again.. people would raise the question, as to why the CURRENT regime failed to do the job… in the created and left atmosphere by Rajapkshe. . Today, having able to travel by a bus a to be I understood. Duminda Silva is still in active politics, even if he is said to be among the ones who commited high crimes in broad day life… why ? it is all because their wealth… their media unit… they can talk free today, but balla s adminsitration did not allow UNPers to shed their voice as i tis allowed today. My3 is a good natured politician that the country ever earned.. this man is the angel elected by goodies of this country to isolate ballige putha. Mahinda.

    Arrest this MR animal, Murderer, Thug, and Thief and lock him up in Wellikada

    for ever. This will solve many unnecessary problems for the people.

    The Animal was very lucky for many years, now his luck has run out,

    because we Modayas have now realised what a Tyrant he was.

    The animal should NOT be put down. It must live in hell (Hague or Welikada)

    and pay for all his sins. He must understand that we are not Modayas anymore.

      My common advice to you all is, better reserve a room in the closest hospital cos’ you all are going to get your worst heart attack on August 18, when Mahinda Rajapaksa is elected to Parliament.

        “you all are going to get your worst heart attack on August 18, when Mahinda Rajapaksa is elected to Parliament.”

        We will still hear cock a doodle doo in the mornings. We can still practice Surya Namaskar in the mornings. Surya will rise every day. Can Mahinda stop sunrise and sunset?

          “Can Mahinda stop sunrise and sunset?”

          Nope. Mahinda will rise like the Sun in the eastern sky. If you come out of the house on August 18, make sure to wear dark glasses, cos’ your natural eye won’t be able to bear the glare.

        Champa ,

        Thanks for the timely advice , i’ll take it in right spirit, though ! now let me give you a piece of advice too , since you are infatuated with MR and his cohorts , be prepared to take a shocking news item emanating from all the media outlets across the country ,it would be like this , ” former president and his entire family members (except Chamal) have been sentenced to walikada prison for the rest of their lives without parole ” , this was the ultimate desire when 6.2 Million people voted him out , that very same people have been patiently , desperately waiting to hear that good news since 9 th Jan , we all know how MY3 and Ranil played the role which prevented the Mafia family being arrested , guess what , since we have some what independent judiciary , law will take care of Mafia family’s fate near future. by the way Champa , can you recall the bravery of Rajapakse siblings ? if not let me help you to refresh your memory , remember how Gota threatened Fedrica Janz by ” I’m not scared of courts ” and MR beating his chest with ” i’ll go to 100 Electric chairs ” , time is nearing to prove their bravery before an independent judiciary , champa will see who is right !

        PS: Eva W and Sarath Abrew ,who are MR’s lackeys, have prevented Gota the goon being arrested , Abrew has shown his true colours again before a helpless domestic female servant ;hence , this time round he will be served with the right medicine , as for Eva , natural justice will take care of her.

          The bitter truth you tried hard to evade is, the reason as to why Ranil or Sirisena couldn’t take Mahinda to prison is that they don’t have any proof against him.

          When Ranil and Sirisena lied to voters left, right and centre about Mahinda and misled them to gain votes at the last election, they never thought people would ask them to prove their ‘lies’. They never thought Mahinda will come back with 10 fold strength. Poor Srilal, what you saw in Ranil and Sirisena was actually a mirage.

    The separatist lobby is getting very nervous that the former President might stage a comeback! The 2015 election was decided by a small margin. A shift in the voting pattern outside the North and East will tip the balance. The separatists are trying to steer the floating voters away from MR by predicting that he won’t win. Voters should not be fooled by this tactic.

    We have been calling the stop of war crime investigation will cause domestic and International upheaval. But the war crime resolution was stopped. Now it is too to stop Old Royal goon attempt to capture power.

    Once again, in the election campaign, the New King, Ranil Mahata, Mangala and the Attanagala Princess will swear that there will be no leader, no commander or even a soldier will be punished!

    Unfortunately this shameless fellow demonstrates no dignity after having held the highest office in the land for two terms. What does he wish to gain by contesting parliamentary elections?

    Can someone enlighten me: is there a clause in the constitution that precludes an ex- President from contesting for office in future parliamentary elections? If not, should there be an amendment that brings such a clause in?

    At the very minimum, the perquisites awarded to ex-Presidents by way of security, housing, allowance etc should be terminated as soon as such an individual files his nomination papers to contest.

    This is the height of greed, and unfortunately something that is not surprising from this piece of trash.

    Chee.

    if anyone read the previous article,on lee kuan yew, opinion polls state UNP will come first. likely that UNP and Siresena will join together as siresena detests rajapaksa after allegations of rajapaksa plan to toture him if he were to lose pres election. in order to make majority unp and siresena will join slmc and tna if them together cant get majority as TNA,SlMC and other up country parties will peform well in north east and western Colombo due ppM. all first past post in north will be won by tna except for maybe one or two

    The Arab felt sorry and let the camel put its head into his tent to enjoy the shade & few minutes latter the Arab was out of the tent and the camel was inside , but here it is even worse , all Mahinda wants is exactly what the camel needed ,but here all he wants is not become the PM, but just an MP would do ,from there he will work his way .

    being a puristic Monotheist i do not indulge in sorcery or week here say astrology of prediction of stars , but I do believe The devils play havoc in the heavens (meaning the universe ) as usual their pass time is to deceive men .
    On the other hand there is something known as astrology Science of characteristics of individuals born under a particular sun sign , it is basically their common behaviors ,beliefs, their negativity and positivism,again this differs some what person to person, simply because of the hereditary of parental natal charts . however ,by knowing just the date and month of the Individual we can assess him to some extend ,and when it comes to business, friendship ,family ,Politics this can be very helpful in dealing with the person ,either we can cut off all ties ,or if we feel we can manage tolerance, the yes it is worth giving every human-being a chance .

    But Mahinda Rajapakshe is not just born under any simple star ,please take this seriously this is not some sorcerer’s mythology this is pure astrological science of character analysis .

    An encyclopedia describes a scorpion as a nocturnal arachnid that attacks and paralyzes its prey with a poison injected by the long, curved tail, used for both defense and destruction. Its sting is sometimes fatal.
    People often draw back visibly when someone says he or she was born within November 22

    Scorpio likes to as much as possible travel masquerading, as long as he can keep those eyes from gazing ,which will give him out, but usually he gets away almost with anything because of his well trained control nature, he usually succeeds.

    Many of us feel nervous and uncomfortable with Scorpio’s penetrating gaze ,you feel as if you are in front of an X’ray machine,their voice is either soft ,husky or penetrating. Retiring and modest is not in his blood ,he is total Ego.He is fully aware what he is and what he is not ,nothing ,or no one can change this in him. Insults usually never bother him (Unless he has parental natal chart of a Leo).and compliments will not move him at all . (again unless he has a parental natal chart of a Leo )

    He is in no need for any wise man to tel him his Vices or virtues ,although he may listen to you , he may even end up suspecting your motives. The Scorpio has an inner boiling nature, which is why you will most of the time see a calm surface wonderfully designed for the Pluto to disguise his inner nature.

    His reactions are always maintained at a bare minimum, because Scorpio’s mechanism is to penetrate into your very soul and know your nature and intentions persistently, like the hot sun in the desert, being enigmatic , and that is a piece of cake for him.

    Always the best advice I can give is try always to avoid confrontation with a scorpion, specially if he or She is November born ,I will elaborate on it as we go further ,I am in no way trying to paint them ruthless ,I like to clear that, so pleas ebe patient and do not jump the gun. but they are not soft nor credulous.No one will dare challenge this spices openly,ancient astrology usually refers to them as serpents,especially those November born nocturnal ,their sting are usually fatal .

    Almost all Scorpions born in November are inevitably proper scorpion -scorpion. and ones born at end October to beginning of November like 1 to 5th are more grey lizard ,a sadly self destructing kind and easily depressing kind , and they bitterly withdraw in tangled hatreds at each minor injury, hoping fate will punish their enemies, ,when they have all the resources to rise like a phoenix from ashes ,they choose Harakiri , counting karama will get their enemy.

    Th Scorpion scorpion scorpion ,does not believe in mercy , he or she will not rest ,if her ego has been squashed ,for them Ego is everything ,their very oxygen they live by, and when he or she wanted something ,specially ,pride,pompous ,ambition , wealth and you have been a startling block , he or she will go to any extend to remove you permanently and will have no remorse ,For a Scorpion -scorpion, worse will be, if you were a directly an instrumental in him or her loosing what he or has worked hard to achieve, for them there is no such thing as virtue or vise when he or she wants to achieve something nothing stops them. and revenge is the only way for them to SIMMER DOWN that boiling nature inside him that has surpassed the temperature .

    h must com back ,punish those who were responsible (not necessarily putting people to death of cause not ,they are much wiser not to engage in such foolishness) ,but they will make sure ,if it is Political ,then he will not rest until every single politician responsible for loosing his crown is completely bankrupt , he will definitely not forgive anyone , who were responsible for it.

    ————————————————————————————-
    The Eagle are very few and easy to recognize , women are too lady like and men are too gentlemen, but will never walk away, they will somehow rise above all bitterness ,but because they are too professional and consider time is most valuable , even the women will never waste time and engage in gossip , if they talk it will mostly be intellectual,politics ,economy ,of-cause how to put away some hard cash safely or simple things , they are rare ,but again they are Scorpions ,unlike the spitefulness of the November born Scorpion-scorpion who carries the venom all their life until it is fulfilled. The Eagle is more a self defense person ,but they are quick and mercilessly when it comes to defending themselves and knows no fear. and they will win at any cost. and they are born multi task super genius ,you will never be able to match them nor replace them ,yes they are Indispensable.

    But one extremely negative quality ,not even the Scorpion-Scorpion ,or the Grey lizard has it.

    Scorpion “EAGLE” will never forgive nor never forget , they will tolerate you , even go as far as helping you ,but deep inside they will never be the same once you have broken the bond . if it is your spouse man or women ,it is disastrous,,it does not matter , you may live together till end of life, but it will only be a keeping of a sacred pledge and nothing more. You can stay or go … so keep away from scorpions of all three, if you think you can not handle them

    There is reliable information that if MR is denied nomination from the SLFP or the UPFA by MS, the SLFP Secretary Anura Priyadharshana Yapa in whose hands the SLFP nomination papers are, is to sabotage so that MS’s candidates will be disqualified, thereby help MR a better footing. So MS and the SLFP better lookout before it is too late.

    With due and utmost respect to Mr.PM Ranil , I honestly do not believe, being an Aries ,he is impatient , but he also can get any job done and besides he is highly respected overseas , ideally as a Minister of external affairs, I assure you can bring the glory back to Sri lanka -only question is will he let go for ? if he does he will win the love and respect in a great way of the people too.

    Meantime a fine and a 100% successful strategy will be to appoint Sajith Premadasa , a Capricorn and he is a hard worker like his father and very much loved and wanted by the People , give him the opportunity to be the PM Candidate , Mahinda may even pullout, trust me and you may end up with a landslide victory.

    Give it a serious thought .

    Democracy means MR can contest.

    People are afraid of Democracy. People are afraid of other people: Afraid of BBS, UNP, BBS, USA, UN.

    Parties should talk to each other and not be so tribal. Divided we stand.

    Yes,it’s going to be the last chapter and end of MR & Co. During the last Presidential Election all said tight fight and MR would win but we said in many comments that MR loose and MY2 would win. That Math was UNP votes + votes of MY3 and CBK, Tamils – all North, East and uncountry-, All Muslims and Christian vote with the big portion of singles’ votes. This same holds for this election as well with the addition of the floating votes which have turned to the government after seeing the good governance and the relief given to the people. With the fracture of PA and SLFP, it’s going to be an easy win for the UNP and partners. MR & Co’s comic didn’t work last time and it wouldn’t this time as well.

    As long as Tamils are concerned – we should not worry too much about who rule from Singhalese side. There is a huge task in front of all Tamil medias which is to direct Tamils in the coming election – very confusing if different media tell different things. Even I am confused at the moment who to support because TNA is too selfish. What ever happen, before election day – all the Tamils should be behind one party. Once again Tamil Politicians started to show their paria mind-set – Sampanthan and thug Mao senathi have to listen to intelligent people like Vikneswaran – Please do not try to fish in the muddy water or steal in a burning house – Mighty God will punish you. This is not the time for your dirty politics – Tamil’s dirty mind set is the main reason for our present beggar state and the pathetic plight. Diaspora Tamils should realise that our mother land is the safest place in the earth in a long run.
