Deputy Leader of the United National Party, Sajith Premadasa says that one cannot rest at a time when the people are in distress.
Sajith Premadasa distributed rice to families affected by the floods in Sooriyawelena, Tissamaharama on Wednesday.
‘We do not look at race, religion, caste or colour. The entire population was affected. This is the holiday season when everyone is relaxing. But we cannot forget the people who have been affected by floods and who are starving during the holidays. We can’t enjoy luxuries while they are suffering. That is why today we are distributing rice worth 3.5 million rupees to 7000 families affected by the floods,’ stated Sajith Premadasa.

Dear Sajith
Your leadership in assisting the flood victims is very great. It is as great as the act of the late Dr. N.M.Perera distributing dhal for the malaria victims in the 1930’s. Your leader is always out of the country and his friends are busy running car races in Colombo while the country is in distress.
Dear Sajith
I am sure ,you have money to feed the whole country.Your beloved dad robbed the whole country when he was in power.Now you can achive your dream with that money.
Well said Milindu! Don’t forget SP has also dug-up/robbed several Buddhist temples in search for ancient treasures. Do we need this idiot to lead the One Nation when Hon MR is doing an excellent job? What’s wrong in holding international road races for sports cars which should would boost tourism? Malaysia and other nations also hold these races.
sajith, as per your above mentioned statement ” we can not enjoy luxuries while people are suffering”, but i would like to ask you a question that only when people are affected to this extent will you be coming forward to help them out?
as a Deputy Leader of the United National Party, you people have such amount of money, then how about the ruling party???
you have been enjoying these lux life as a deputy opposition leader, then how about the ruling leaders????
cheating the entire people and making them fool.
these bastards already sold the nation to these foking china and india, and moreover debts over the heads for the middle east countries.
there are audits and revenues in this pathetic nation but allllllllllll are idle, they never wakeup until and unless these leaders say , hey common wakeup.
these buggers are pretending for poor uneducated publics who lives without a sense.
Evere since the recent UNP convention that endorsed Wimpy Wicks as the leader for the next 6 years, Sajith has been making extremely valuable contributions in delivering the role of opposition.
I watched an online video of Sajith’s interview of econmic affairs and was astounded by his grasp of fundamentals in fiscal affairs.
Wimpy Wicks who is holidaying in the wealthy west, I am sure is on the phone to his greatest pal living in the Tree house.
Just wait, when Wimpy Wicks gets back, he’s gonna demonstrate his “tough guy” potential by addressing the press in his squeaky voice.
Wimpy Wicks is also likely to appoint a committee to investigate happenings in his absence.
Good on you Sajith, you are on a path of great image building. Be encouraged.
