@MASumanthiran Please tell us on what authority you are doing this. You live in Wellawatte and not in Jaffna. You were rejected by the people of Jaffna at the last election. You were defeated at the ITAK election for the post of President
@sonaljay8 Late adopters? Happens. That said there will still be demand for slow poke ways and means of doing things, because not everyone is on board the WEF train to mass submission.
@yohes1@Jamz5251 Most of these award ceremonies are money making scams to profit of the need for x individuals who want recognition and who are willing to pay the "fee" to obtain it. LOL
@chami9539 Definitely time to do something about regulating &upgrading public transport & safety. Safety being a key concern. Time also to update the road design standards and speed limits to prevent accidents. We see U-turns on 70kmph roads + close to pedestrian crossings @BimalRathnayake
@chami9539@tuktuksputnik typo: given its...
I understand financial constraints require the govt to prevent draining scarce foreign reserves in whichever way possible & imposing heavy duties is probably the only way to go to curb excessive vehicle imports. When we do well, we'll still have to curb it...
@chami9539@tuktuksputnik Lazy English today Chaminda. What I meant to say was the graph reminded me of the actual reason why the govt should be taxing away in countries such as SL. We have enjoyed the benefit of a heck of a lot fewer vehicles being on the road at present giving its exorbitant prices.
@tuktuksputnik@chami9539 The minute I saw the graph going around, it reminded me of the actual reason: it is the fact that we are island nations and space is a limiting factor. Roadways can only get us so far, a higher value placed on motor vehicles ensures we aren't stuck in nightmarish traffic jams.
@gayaradesilva@sajithpremadasa Harsha has coughed up some outlandish statements in recent days. He could perhaps use a few lessons in humility and considered speech.
@NewsWireLK Then they probably shouldn't have had that whole circus displaying govt vehicles at Galle Face and used them for official work instead? LOL #jeppocircus
@mdxabu Keep your seatbelt fastened except for when the sign is switched off. Enjoy the moment you step out of the plane at your destination! Safe travels🙏
@tuktuksputnik@Jamz5251 Also, the video from which this shot is taken from is being shared, and it's just the compere who is speaking at this point in the programme and Hrithik is just off to the right of her standing on stage.
#DailyError now trying their hand at presumptuous face reading. Also, how rude to even insinuate such a thing?!? Are you trying to create a rift and cause ill will @Jamz5251?
@yohes1 Rather an alarming statement, but we were all expecting that that would be the bitter end of this tasteless casino aspect of the @JohnKeellsGroup project.
Wimal Weerawansa, at a press conference, played multiple old speeches of President Anura Kumara Dissanayake opposing casinos — questions the President’s double standards for now supporting their opening while in office.
If we deprive our children of the opportunity to experience art, poetry, beauty—in short, culture—we are destined for a future of superficial and dangerous people. This is why we need to defend a sector that doesn't exist to generate profits, but to speak directly to the people."
