Sajin Appoints Rosy’s Daughter, 11 Others As CHOGM 70k Consultants

The Government has recruited several consultants to the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2013 to be the ‘face’ of the summit coordination efforts in November this year.

Thisakya Maya Senanayake

12 such consultants have been hired at remuneration in the range of Rs. 70,000 each, Colombo Telegraph learns. They include male and female youngsters of between 20-26 years old sources told Colombo Telegraph. The consultants function under the office of the Monitoring MP for the Foreign Ministry and presidential close associate Sajin Vaas Gunewardana. The consultants commenced work a few months ago.

Among the recruits are the 25 year old daughter of United National Party Parliamentarian former beauty queen and former Ambassador to Malaysia Rosy Senanayake,Thisakya Senanayake. Thisakya is a fashion design graduate from the London College of Fashion in 2012.

Colombo Telegraph learns that the daughter of John Keells Holdings Chairman Susantha Ratnayake, Anitra is also on the list of CHOGM consultants. John Keells Holdings is heavily involved in the CHOGM organisation and has been co opted for much of the event organisation and software and hospitality management.

It is not immediately clear what the criteria was for the selection of ‘consultants’ but it is reliably learnt that the appointments were made by Vaas Gunewardane.

All 12 CHOGM consultants are tipped to receive diplomatic positions in Sri Lankan embassies overseas after the summit is over. The locations of the postings include Ottawa Canada and Victoria Australia, the Colombo Telegraph learns.

    That is why we are so fed up with this country system. No room for real qualified people…… so educated youth fly way from country and let them to play their own game. This is not only in UNFP , even under UNP in past……..

    That is why I always say that brain drain is not only salary or money matter. but also right opportunity and feeling bad

        Mr. Gamma,

        You may just learn in a degree of arts or what ever degree for a making money. But, we learn for learn knowledge. Do you think, or why do you degrade Arts. Are you think, these ladies who coimg from elite family have all qualification than who studies in the Sri Lankna university to be there. Come on, do not split up … sorry gamma

          Mr Sisira, I do not believe any one could understand a word you have said!!,to add to the misery if you we’re talking to one of those pissas who are coming for the conference, they would not know if you we’re talking Greek or Sinhala. Now you know your problem? This is easily rectified. Learn a universal language . The problem is not the family it is. The attitude .

      Actually those who come to participate in CHOGM in Rajapakshapura are shameless leaders and they can’t come here with any cloths. Specially Sec. General, Kamalesh Sharma, UKU cannot come to Sri Lanka with any cloths as Kamalesh Sharma’s cloths has already removed by Media specially by CT.

      Our Saddarmadveepa Chakrawarthi knows about that and that is why he instructed Sajin Vaas to recruit fashion designer as consultant.

      Fashion Designers should select “Seethambara Pata Salu” to make new suits for these Shameless Gentlemen’s for General Public to see their transparency.

      My best friend Jim Softy, You got the Point.

      Our Saddarmadveepa Chakrawarthi himself is a very good fashion Designer. remember what he designed for us.

      1. Jaathi Aalaya – Still we love that design.

      2. War Victory – Still in the Market.

      3. War Crimes – Using only in Election times

      4. Deshadrohi/Deshapremi – Only design suitable for everybody.

      5. Sinhala Bauddha – Very Interesting design now being used by Gaanu 5 Bebadu Naanasara.

      6. Territorial Integrity, Freedom – Everybody likes this design

      7. Mathata Thitha Design – Still that design has a very good demand.

      There are more and more designs and what ever he designs we ware until we realize that designs made from “Seethambara Pata Salu”

But ….see the back door prostitution and front door revolution of our opposition !!?…and we all expect a miraculous democracy from these pros and cons.
    What we are having is a group of Devils from one family and we are desperately looking for angles among a group of individual Satans.

        How come that every glittering job in Government service (whether gazetted or non gazetted) are only available to the thieves and morons in the power circle. Whether they are in Opposition or in power chair !!?

        Temporary becomes permanent is the custom in this wonderland.

        The next step in this process is… we the public watching a cross over and Rossy praising the morons and you ends up collecting bones under the table.

          rev Devil. Not to worry . I am no baby ,and like an inch and a half from the grave. Up until now I never ever ate any bones.!!!! The jobs in the govt. are given to Rajapaksa family and 568 of their relatives. I do not know Rosie and will not talk for her but I do not believe that the daughter ever voted for a tsunami hora.
          You know a lot of legal things but no one else does.
          A land full of buffaloes who vote for Preme ponnayas and nymphomaniacs or tsunami horas this is to be expected. So relax if these children are offered permanent posts I doubt them taking it as they have to finish their studies I would think. More than that have you seen proper normal individuals joining the foreign service?
          If you are a qualified person in the foreign service you have some govt landing Rosie as your boss!!!! Oh my god why does any qualified person need this job?

            ”So relax if these children are offered permanent posts I doubt them taking it as they have to finish their studies”

            How generous you are to recommend these very talented homely Ambassadors of our hamlets by finding a way to finish up their studies as they have no other means for their pennys !!? You didn’t stop there ….You suggest me that,

            ”If you are a qualified person in the foreign service you have some govt landing Rosie as your boss!!!!”

            Could there be a joker who could fit to serve Rosie than you Gamma !!?

            ”Oh my god why does any qualified person need this job?”

            Gamma, go through the list of MaRa’s Cabinet of Ministers and justify me their appointments please !!?

    the problem with this country is everyone things if you have a phd in something you’re eligible for a position. but excuse me sir’s /Madams just because you spent all your life studying doesn’t mean you’re more suitable for a position. yes i agree these said individuals may be selected out of political influence but it doesn’t mean they cant administer such roles. 2 reasons why these to selected individual may be ideal candidates is because 1. they were exposed to an international education (liberal mind set) 2. being in sri lanka you will never the mind set of an Australian neither will you of a Canadian.

    A young fashion design graduate from the London College of Fashion is eminently suitable to act as a consultant for the CHOGM, as the arrangements for this high profile function must be done in a manner consistent with international standards. Rs. 70,000 per month is not excessive for a short term assignment. The fact that she is Rosy Senanayake’s daughter must not prevent her from selection for this appointment.

    She has the benefit of experience gained during her mother’s assignment as the ambassador in Malaysia, where she shone as an outstanding ambassador highly respected by the Government of Malaysia. Don’t be petty minded.

        Hello the lot of you. I would think these individuals you,are mentioning must be better than and possibly more educated than the silly arts graduates this country produces in drones ,plus must be streets ahead of those jokers your government ,sends as ambassadors.
        The masses should be delighted if these children who would not know how to say note and pote like your diplomuts do, would actually accept these postings. And 75,000 rupees? Please with Cabral’s NO inflation is not enough even to let off a smelly fart!!

          We always like the foreign connections . A fashion graduate is better than a typical arts graduate for the latter will project a – goday’ culture and would not have the elocution accent to speak and usher in the African delelgates , who themselves are over dressed and project a Black Englishman personality . The only bone of contention is that Rosy belongs to a party that is lobbying daily for the CHOGM venue to fail even at the last minute . even after the BMWs were imported , even after the schools were warned to close .But She just cannot get her daughter to obey her UNP ideals , so what ? So what indeed for we have a beauty Queen as first lady Ver Fair and lovely .. !Relax folks enjoy the Pageant, male and female . old and young , Obese and slim , black and white . Hai ! bye ! that what its all about !Chogm’s happen and who cares ?and 70,000 is peanuts for the high flying crowd .As for being in foreign service we never know the criteria for to join that crowd .

    It is just the making of the pathway by the daughter ,so that the Mother will have a comfortable crossover to the government after the elections ,right now what the government needs now are new faces with some world acceptance to clean up the mess.

    Everyone’s got a price & once you know how much and what it is ,acquiring the merchandise is not that hard.

    Today’s world has left very little choices to bread good men and women there is no hope even in the near future that such noble men and women will be seen in this world of ours where we have left with no options that will help us make decisions that suits in what we believed in ,

    but rather force us to pick the options which is like to say head or tales you got only the options created by evil men & women who is hell bent to take you down where they are leading to, Politics and religion have been hijacked by men of evil hearts who want everything in the world to function the way they want it and strip the beliefs of every noble soul and pollute it with thier filthy discreet plans to acquire power & wealth even at the cost of destroying everyone and everyhting they come across, only time will tell us the end results ,

    Sri Lanka is a Land of idiots. Ruled by 8th grade un educated criminals.
    Ruling party or the opposition party politicians and selfish, greedy uneducated rascals. Ordinary people do not have any hope. At the end of Rajapaksha’s tenner UNP idiots will get the power.
    No matter ordinary people suffer all the time.
    Uneducated politicians in both parties will get all the benefits.
    Rosy is wearing white clothes and now talk about women rights, but she should go in front a mirror and should ask what she did to the young girls at her Don’s restaurant in past.

    Do you think Sajin the donkey has got it right this time? Rosy or not the daughter looks very smart. She is qualified in some thing which is not an arts degree. That is a plus. She also is not part of the Gong Harak brigades which are the frogs in the well that actually vote for Rajapaksa. So that seems like a winner and a good ambassador for Sri Lanka!

    Then the other girl if she has half the brain , the personality and the work ethic the father has way to go Sajin!!!! Never too late to do the right thing.

    As far as I am concerned anyone can be selected. However it shall not be based on connections or personal relationships. I too live in Australia and don’t believe she will know much about cultures of all participating in Chogm as commonwealth consist of many African and Asian nations. What I don’t understand is why some writers insult our art graduates. These courses , I mean art degrees, have been prepared by govt and making jokes on graduates is like spitting on your own face. These are the real suddange passa lewa kana jokers. I know very well about suddo (whites). So try to keep your identity as a nation and don’t justify wrongs, sajin bass should have been sacked long ago. I get the point though Ambasodors (for an even)are normally be appointed based on their personality and language abilities, in this case English. But there could have been others. But U am fed up if what us happening in Sri Lanka and I am here thus.

We live in Sri Lanka we know that we have thousands of arts graduates waiting to find jobs and , even if they are offered training to get other jobs they prefer to wait. After all they are already sooooo qualified. I would prefer these Kalu sudhas not to comment. We live here , we know what is happening here. We do not come to Colombo on holiday and get thrilled at roads and pavements paved with Basil Gall .
      Who does not know about other cultures but, only about Aussie culture??? Just because you choose to be a little frog does not mean others do. Big achievement you live in Australia others live and travel in the rest of the plannet!!!!

    The fierce girl looks more like a Burgher – from the mother’ side. Rs.70,000 per month is peanuts. The two girls are hired probably because they can speak English well. If our King choses girls from his family, it will be necessary to have other girls to translate their Ingreesi to the English the well-heeled CGOGM guests will jabber in. Aney! Gone are the days when we had good looking girls coming from Govt service itself speaking perfect English. All that was killed in that wonderful Mahajana Apey Anduwa Revolution of 1956.

    Why do you fellows think with a broad mind. Definitely beauty comes as an added merit for some selected professions. Airline jobs, receptionists, representatives, etc, etc, require very presentable faces. Don’t think all pretty faces are all prostitutes. According to you only the uglies are good. I wonder where does your mother, sister, wife & daughter fit into.

    Perfect choice. These good looking girls with fluency in English is going to give the first impression.

    What is the use of selecting those ugly ‘game’ looking university educated graduates who can’t speak a word in English, or do not socialize with others?

    Don’t get mislead by the title given “consultant”.It is just a “flower girl” at a wedding.
