The president’s action is uncalled for.
Sri Lanka had gone through decades of turmoil and suffering. When peace was restored it was making progress towards recovery. When Rajapakse’s government was brought down the people rejoiced. He ruled the country with an iron fist but for his own benefit. He shattered the economy and ran the country as a buch of hooligans.
When Ranil and Sisena toppled him there was a ray of ligh across the tunnel.
Now the President has created ruckers by appointing the man he dethroned of all person on earth.
Hope in the end Ranil will emerge to give the people of Sri Lanka the peace and prosperity the country needs.
God bless

We do not need Bandula at the helm of Economic Affairs. We need ‘Greek Bond Market’ specialist, Ajit Nivaard Cabraal at the helm.
