There is plenty of publicly available evidence that Ranil repeatedly warned about the economic crisis well before the collapse; including in 2020 and 2021, when he called for IMF assistance, flagged critical foreign reserves, the impact of tax cuts and money printing, and said the country was heading for serious trouble. He even stated later that โWe warned of this economic crisis in 2020. We also said that Sri Lanka should go to the IMF in 2021.โ So why is Newsfirst saying that he โstayed silentโ? Here is a video he did to jog your memory
I asked the sales manager what the difference is between front-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, and rear-wheel drive โ and this was his response!โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ ๐คฃ
Buddhist Lent Day (Khao Phansa) marks the start of the three-month rains retreat for Buddhist monks in Thailand. During this sacred period, monks focus on meditation, study, and spiritual practice, while we, Thai Buddhists, make merit, offer essentials to temples, and commit to acts of kindness and self-improvement. ๐๐น๐ญ

Interesting read from Mark Zuckerberg @finkd:
The AI Future Is for Everyone:
The history of democracy and economics has proved that centralized power stifles human potential.

If you replace "super intelligence" with "infinite wealth" the risks of wealth concentration are equally bad as super intelligence concentration, or even worse.
Yet that is the reality of today's world - massive wealth concentration and bought out democracy.
