IMF approves US$ 2.9 billion EFF for Sri Lanka, unlocking access to US$ 7-9 billion. President @RW_UNP must act decisively by commercializing loss-making public enterprises, optimizing the public services & diversifying the economy for long-term growth & inclusivity #lka#IMF
Today was a very special day for me, my wife and the three daughters. Seven years of insults, pain and sufferings undergone by me and my family ended today as Justice prevails. I thank all those who stood firm alongside me all this while.

@RW_UNP created in the post-independence period by dividing the people for political gains. What we should do today is not point the finger at each other, but unify ourselves to take the country on a path that is 100% correct.

The address to the nation delivered on 75th Independence Day by President @RW_UNP is 100% correct. I find it as an instance in which a head of state in recent history has fearlessly stated the unpleasant truth. He has identified very well the society of hatred that has been (1/2)

With all due respect #IMF endorsement is required but the prescription must be palatable. It should be implemented through a pragmatic & Sri Lankan approach. Together with President @RW_UNP who was the then Prime Minister in 2015 and extended the fullest cooperation to us. (1/4)
@RW_UNP taking the country to doldrums.
How can an aspiring entrepreneur who borrows from the bank at 30-31% pay it back? He/she will spend one thirds of their time working for the bank! Where are the rewards to be reaped for their entrepreneurial skills?

@RW_UNP We had officials who kept people’s prosperity at heart instead of individuals who were merely warming a chair and not protecting the best interests of the people. There is no point going to contraction, having high interest rates, saying that this is anti-inflationary, and (2/4)
