Bond scams and Perpetual Trustees

The principal share holder and Director of Perpetual Trustees, Mr. Arjuna Aloysius, has decided not to give evidence before the Presidential Commission of Inquiry. The Commission of Inquiry has also declined to compel him to give evidence because the law allows him to do so. If those who are accused can remain silent when called upon to provide evidence to Presidential Commissions then there is no purpose of appointing them as it is a waste of time and money. In the past so many commissions had been appointed but their impact had been negligible. Some of them had been merely an eye wash.
From the ‘Bond Scams’, Perpetual Trustees had earned billions. And it had been reported last year, that the CEO of Perpetual Trustees, Mr. Kasun Palisena had been paid Rs 10 million as a bonus, while other employees had also been offered large bonuses. The beginning of the bond scam started with the appointment of Mr. Mahendran, a Singaporean, as the Governor of the Central Bank. His appointment had been made by the Prime Minister Mr. Ranil Wickremasinghe. And Arjuna Aloysius of Perpetual Trustees is the son-in-law of Mr. Mahendran. Therefore, the person responsible for the whole episode is Ranil Wickremasinghe.

Questions to ask :
* How did RW become the Exec Prime Minister of Sri Lanka ?
* Why was RW allowed to take the Finance Ministry under his command ?
* RW has a poor political record – how did he become the Exec PM of Sri Lanka and remains so to this day ?
* What did Pres MS say when he appointed RW as Exec PM ?
