Day to day work must go on, says Sagala
Minister Sagala Ratnayake says the Vesak festival should be celebrated like during previous years.
Speaking at a gathering yesterday the Minister said it is time that day to day activities return to normalcy following the Easter Sunday attacks.
Minister Ratnayake noted that Sri Lanka is a country that has already faced a 30 year long conflict.
The Minister added during the conflict with the LTTE people went about their work and stated that schools did not close either.
He claimed during the conflict people did not stop celebrating Vesak.
Minister Sagala Ratnayake said today, Sri Lanka is in a similar situation and called on the public to not let it affect them.
He said Vesak festivities, such as decorations, should take place.

Dear Sagala,
Day to day work can go on if you are provided security by 5 Defender Jeep escorts at taxpayer’s cost.
Also, the moment you step out, there are more plain clothes policemen surrounding you than well wishers.
Sagala, you don’t understand, we, the population of Sri Lanka are living in a terrorised environment. Radical muslims are walking around with backpacks filled with explosives.
You and your Governmenet and the Pamb**** have no idea what you are doing.
Hope you are enjoying cooler nights in Temple Trees with your boss.
Sagala,
We cannot go about day to day lives.
We cannot send children to school.
We cannot celebrate Vesak.
There are Muslim girls and guys walking around with backpacks filled with explosives and you, the Government, have no clue where they are or what they are doing.
So, resign and give Govt to Rajapaksa Brothers Company.
Samanela Kalliya Govt has failed us, my darling Sagala.
