A family of four in #Colombo now needs Rs.100,000 a month for basic food as guided by @WHO & Health Ministry. The same family needed only Rs.50,000 for this last year. #SriLanka food inflation is 58%, but 80% in Colombo - @RegularReh tells @LMudalige #EconLiteracy

#SriLanka Crisis:

Over 5 million people have reported skipping meals to get by and rural families are no exception.

🚨If farmers don't gain access to seeds, other inputs and financial assistance, the upcoming season could see a reduction in paddy planting areas by 50%.

The BASL condemns the attack by the forces on protestors. It is a black day for the country. The attacks happen on the first day in office of the new President. Shame!!

This also tracks with the CEB’s daily power generation data. CEB data shows major hydro power plants contributing the lion’s share of the daily output. CEB Hydro power plants generated 40.4%, or 16.08 GWh, of the total output recorded yesterday.

In a special address yesterday (18) RW failed to credit the weather and the South Western monsoon which runs from June to September. Data from the weather tracking tool Ventusky shows increased rainfall over the last two months, contributing to increased hydro-power generation.

#Factcheck!

Acting President @RW_UNP claimed that the government was able to reduce power cuts from five hours to three hours a day, since his tenure as Prime Minister which began on May 13. This is misleading.

[Nishan de Mel @NCdeMel]

Greatest threat to #SriLanka stability, at this time, is SLPP asserting its parliament majority to become a proxy for the rejected leaders of the country.

After 2015&19 elections, parliament majority of the defeated presidential candidate, stood down. SLPP shld do the same now.

[Yellow For Democracy @YellowDemocracy]

@got_2025 The Parliament should not be occupied. It is a state apparatus that is integral to the running of this country. However, TT, PP, and PS are symbolic of those who have run this country to the ground, so the occupation of those is symbolic as long as there is no destruction.
