SLFP-affiliated trade unions of SriLankan Airlines today claimed that the government is preparing to sell Sri Lanka’s national carrier to a company which is ‘operating with LTTE funds’.
Representatives of the Sri Lanka Nidahas Sevaka Sangamaya – Sri Lankan Airlines, addressing a press conference today, vowed to resort to strict trade union action if the government goes ahead with such a deal.
Chairman of the association, Janaka Wijepathirana, alleged that the relevant Cabinet paper proposing the sale of SriLankan Airlines to a ‘company operating with LTTE funding’ is to be presented to the Cabinet.
He claimed that as the preliminary step towards this, the two most profitable subsidiaries of the airline including SriLankan Catering are to be removed from under SriLankan Airlines and sold to the company in question while the necessary plans have already been drafted.

Why worry guys,
LTTE has all the rights to buy the National Carrier.
They bombed and destroyed the Central Bank structure during Killer Velu’s time.
They got a second chance to destroy it during its proxy (TNA)’s time. They destroyed the Central Bank monetarily also by giving advice to Run-nil how to do the Bond Scam. Because LTTE had all the rights to destroy it.
Similarly, they bombed our national Carrier’s air crafts and Mother Lanka survived. LTTE has all the rights to come back and destroy it again.
Everybody should be given a second chance under the humanitarian law and the Good Governance principles.
So why worry.
• Give them the TV stations,
• Give them the Central Bank,
• Give them the National Carrier,
• They already own the major businesses in SL,
• Give them Maththala Airport
• Give them our Natural Resources,
• Give them our water resources,
• Let them provide power to us.
Then let’s get perished!
