Will YOU VOTE for ME if I run for SL PRESIDENCY?

The country has been driven in very wrong directions.
We blame politicians for that and politicians blame other politicians...

In order to change that, somebody should start something with an honest heart.

This forum is a good place start some movement; it may be very minute at the beginning; but remember, massive trees are started with tiny seeds; Gigantic avalanches can start with a pebble.

1) Ability to say lies.
2) A self made proven thug.
3) Take few lives for nothing.
4) Close connection with drug dealers but keep close connections with religious dignitaries.
5) Say one thing & do something else but still able to justify his doings.

You don't have any of these qualifications. Hence, you are not my choice SLS.

on the paper both are saints, both never done a wrong , both never lied,both helped people their whole lives, and both wants to correct the wrong path of the country..

What they will do after elected is completely opposite of you say.

I am sure now some people will give likes to you too.

not just what ones says but looking at what one has done/behaved in the past

Observing Past behavior over considerable time ( many years)   is usually a fair indicator to judge the future behavior


Ex: Did MR allow corruption, no Law and Order and less freedom of expression in the past? Why did he try to extend a 2 term Presidency for 3 Terms ( when most world leader gracefully step down/retire after service) . Has he got rid of  his old gang and his ways now after he admitted let corruption during his time?  If not  it good indicator that he is gong to do it again in the future!

Ex2 : For Ranil, it should have been the first warning when MS crossed over after eating Appa. Why? Can such a person do the same again ? Yes, It happened. He joined the same person without worry in 2018 he before said he would have put him  6 feet under the ground had he lost in 2015.  


Ex 3:  The way Ranil acted  or protected the Bond Scam wrong doers  at Parliament (even before  a formal  inquiry was  done)  gave indication he was not going to bring the scammers to justice in the future. It never happened.  

Past/Present Behavior is fair indication ( not perfect) it will be  repeated in the future.

You are spot-on on today's politician in SL but certainly not for the one that we need to see 20 years from now on behalf of our children. In order to create that politician in 20 years from now we need to have the kind of people entering from now onwards.

I think Ranil is there only by one reason,, International world trust him as a reliable person.

He has some personal qualities of a western politician as not lying, do what he promised, not fallen to third grade tactics of grabbing power by hook or crook.. MR an MS are miles behind him on these qualities, and international world see he is the only politician they can trust in Sri Lanka to some extent.. others are totally untrustworthy

when it comes to believing ones own words, MS and MR are miles behind him..
I think his Colombo, high class upbringing made him a somewhat gentleman..MR and MS totally opposite,,

I dont say Ranil is a gentleman or I will vote him,, I said that is how the International world sees him, US, India,Uk and EU..They want a trustworthy person and unfortunately we could not produce a single politician , only close person is Ranil.

Just for a question, Do you think Narendra Modi will do to India what MS did to Sri Lanka????? Never. So even south asian standard Sri Lanka is far behind..

so will ever an outside political decision maker will rely on a word of our president or PM in thier calculations?? make a political decision????? I dont think so.. And Sri Lanka is heavyly depends on their political decisions and calculations..

I got to go now,, see you later..
