Now threatening #SriLanka over contaminated fertilizer consignment controversy:- @ChinaEmbSL, Qingdao Seawin Biotech Group and @Dailymirror_SL's Jamila Hussain.
Does she think #LKA has no rights (specifically to protect the health of citizens+food stocks) in this dispute?

[Jamila Husain @Jamz5251]

If China's Qingdao Seawin lodges a complain against #SriLanka at the @FAO, hope #SriLanka is ready with its answers to go head on. Or else will be a blow to the nation, not to the govt.

4. Why Chinese company + Chinese Embassy have resorted to vile threats/intimidation to resolve a commercial dispute.

PS- Slow clap @Dailymirror_SL for giving lead story space to a press release from Qingdao when their product could endanger the nation's health and food security

[Democracy Watch Sri Lanka @democracyLK]

Peak journalism from @Jamz5251 in this "exclusive" media release from Chinese company accused of sending contaminated fertilizer to #LKA fails to clarify:
1. Schutter Global is a Beijing-based co. registered with China's Agriculture + Commerce Depts

[Jamila Husain @Jamz5251]

In an exclusive intw to @Dailymirror_SL, China's Qingdao Seawin says #SriLanka 's NPQS tested it's fertilizer undr a temp of 37 degrees whereas it should be tested undr 25 degrees. Calls for a correction of report or will take #lka to @FAO. Says all allegations by NPQS untrue

[Democracy Watch Sri Lanka @democracyLK]

2. Why fertilizer intended for use in #LKA's dry zone must be tested at 25C to test negative for bad bacteria
3. How the national quarantine authority can be threatened for doing the very definition of its job which is to prevent contaminated material from entering #LKA borders

@ChinaEmbSL Twitter person*:
News 1st never actually said that.
But we understand; No Twitter back home for you, because it's BLOCKED, so you get a little excited with all of this freedom in SL 😬
Enjoy our Freedom. But OBEY OUR LAWS

[Chinese Embassy in Sri Lanka @ChinaEmbSL]

So @NewsfirstSL knew they're not Chinese military personnel but only workers in camo-color dressing, and insisted to carry such a misleading and provocative headline?

These working outfits are notably different from uniforms of 🇱🇰 military, to whom 🇨🇳shows highest respect.

ලුණුයි බතුයි කෑවත් ඉන්න රටක් තියෙනවා කියපු 69 ලක්ෂයට දැන් ලුණුත් නෑ, හාලුත් ගිනි ගණන්.
දැනට ඉන්න රට තිබුනට ළඟදීම ඒකත් චීනෙට. මුහුදේ මාළුත් ඉවරයි, මහපොළවේ ගසුත් ඉවරයි, තව ටික දවසකින් කෘෂිකර්ම පද්ධතියත් සුන්.

First they pressurised children. Then they tried to force statements out of Ahnaf Jazeem. When this case eventually gets to court, there will be no case because there is no real evidence against someone who is innocent. @Justice4Hejaaz

Dear Samagi Jana Balawegaya,

I'm on my knees begging you - please stop this random bullshittery for two weeks and just keep asking for expense breakdowns for the Itukama fund, details of vaccine purchase agreements and timeframes, and resumption of private sector PCR testing.

[Democracy Watch Sri Lanka @democracyLK]

While @KaruOnline mounts diplomatic effort to secure free vaccines + @GotabayaR stays laser-focused on Sinopharm, never forget you can dial @Dilith2 for a deal. Based on this report GS Health could purchase AZ vaccines at $25 and sell to Govt at US $50. https://t.co/DTPvLxiulE

[සිවුර @siwura]

🏴‍☠️Rather than negotiating in good faith with donor nations to give us vaccines for free like everyone else, Nandasena is angling for a private deal, antigen style. @Dilith2, how is the markup? Worth letting 1000s die waiting?

Was in this line for nearly 4hrs today waiting for excess vaccines that GMOA families (or friends) didn’t show up for. Still didn’t get it. We speak of priority lists, but the only priority is GMOA. No system. No assurance of that elusive second dose. Total anarchy.

Mystery solved. @officialunp working committee member has announced that it will not fill its single parliamentary seat as a matter of policy until the party gains public support. Total betrayal of 200k UNP voters - no voice in the House for 10 months already @rehanumfernando

[Dinouk Colombage @Dinouk_C]

@RehanJayawick @siwura @sajithpremadasa @tisrilanka @CPASL @sjbsrilanka It's not inability. We didn't receive the mandate from the public to represent them in Parliament. We will continue to gain their support outside of Parliament and once the public's confidence in us returns we will fill the seat

[Democracy Watch Sri Lanka @democracyLK]

In light of the revelations regarding @GotabayaR's ambulance procurement could @HarshadeSilvaMP please clarify the cost of each Suwaseriya fully fitted ambulance for comparison? #srilanka
