The economy cannot be saved by just changing one person, former President Maithripala Sirisena says.
Speaking to the media today (12), the former President said that the economic experts and policymakers should come together and discuss the relevant areas of development needed to strengthen the economy.
”All these relevant parties should discuss about the various aspects of recovering the economy because it cannot be achieved by changing one person. There are many aspects, such as import / exports and the institutional roles in strengthening the economy,” He mentioned.
The solution to this issue lies on a common development framework, he further stated.
”This is not a problem which can be solved within days, and a long-term plan is necessary to solve this issue. That long term plan should bear the development aspects of other areas, such as health and education as well,” he added.

How Pathetic can a person be?
The ex-Prezzo, classified as the bottom rung of all ex-Prezzos, is disseminating his stupidity.
He is talking of a long term plan when the only long term plan he had during his 5 years was the extension of his term for a further 5 years.
I will support Pohottu if they pursue the Presidential Commission recommendations and charge this person for negligence and deprive him of all the perks he enjoys as an ex-Prezzo.
The country has never ever seen a pathetic leader such as this person.
