Government has created an era of waiting – Mangala
Former Minister of Finance Parliamentarian Mangala Samaraweera says an era of waiting has been created by the government once again during their two months of governance.
Speaking in Parliament MP Samaraweera said it is futile to level allegations at the former government in order to conceal its failures, instead of providing relief to the public.
The MP claimed the present government is making statements over its inability to reach crucial decisions due to a lack of a majority in Parliament, while pointing out that the good governance government too held a minority government when elected in January 2015.
MP Samaraweera pointed out that the good governance government tabled a budget within 25 days of coming into power.
MP Samaraweera noted that Leader of the Opposition Sajith Premadasa and party leader Ranil Wickremesinghe have both stated repeatedly that the opposition will support any decisions by the government that will benefit the people.

It’s time this person gave up politics where he has been an utter failure.
He should ‘come out’ and provide leadership to the LGBTIQ community in SL.
Mr Fiery Fernando. This guy had a winning formula ” V1 + V2 + V3 etc. I don’t know what it meant . I don’t think he knows either. Do you know what it means. When he was thrown out his formula was thrown out with him shame. Now he looks like a cartoon character.
“an era of waiting has been created by the government once again during their two months of governance”
Wow, look what the cat dragged in! Wow, look who is talking!!!
Wow, did you say two moths or two years?
By the look of it, it will take at least another 6 months to undo the utter mismanagement your Yahaplanaya corrupt, incompetent, unpatriotic (thrown in for good measure) idiots eroded into our national coffers, including unpaid GOSL bills now revealed to be running into billions and billions of rupees! Yeah, you loser, how very convenient for you, to now be off the hook, as the former finance minister uh?
Listen you poor washed-out loser, yes you are the loser who destroyed any chance of your UNP and poor Sajith from even having a decent chance as a contender at the last prez elections – with your “Sri Lanka is not a Buddhist Sinhalese country” statement …. which speaks volumes to your intelligence – or the stark lack of it in your case!
I am surprised the UNP and Sajith still continue to associate with you, without ditching you summarily!
But then again, the UNP of today which is a corrupt, incompetent, vision-less and unpatriotic party – so no surprise there either!
Phew, did I sniff an awful rotting smell coming out of our parliament?
