But over the years\ncentral has not done its national duty to move forward the country towards that\npath by making creative solutions to our motherland. Now is the time to do it,\nwith the new leadership of the country. The leadership we have in our country\nis unique and this moment is phenomenon because president\u2019s leadership is\ncourageous as he is standing firm before the statements he made to public.\nPublic has built their trust on him than ever before. Central bank need to do\ntwo things in this instance. National institution can show the pathway for\nprosperity from the financial management and investing point of view. Secondly\nthey can make intelligent decisions on financial economic decisions on daily\nbasis towards that prosperity perspective. The simultaneous approach will\nenhance objectives of financing stability of the country.Our medium and small\nindustries will be benefited by this approach. If central bank fail to invent\ntools to rescue mid size entrepreneurs of the country it will have a ripple\neffect to our economy and collapse the economy. So intervention of central bank\nout of the box thinking is very important at this moment &amp; develop the\neconomy of the country. They essential must introduce financial product\ntargeting our manufacturing and micro industries. Financing to import cars and\nselling cars want help to develop the economy. It will help only to develop\nindividual people of the bank to move forward with promotions. That is not what\nthe president expect form the the people in the institution. Central bank has\nthe best intelligent financial expertise and this is the time to come out and\nbring their expertise. Every individual has a role to play towards the vision\nof the president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The request by the\npresident prior week meeting with central bank officers was phenomenon.\nPresident has every right to request that way, because he has been entrusted\nwith huge confidence by the public of this country. People voted the president\nexpecting that change, and that change is the voice of our deserving people of\nthis country. Enough is enough the time has come to put your<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>brains into work\nand make use of it. There is no use of highly educated bankers of central bank\nif you cannot make financial products suited to our small industries to and\nagricultural sector. Most of the commercial banks make loans for well to do\nbusiness people and the bank make profits at the year end, but it will not\nhelpful to develop the country towards development of agricultural sector and\nsmall industries. In my previous articles I have addressed that this is a time\nfor change: that change is a voice from the deserving people of this country.\nMy personal opinion as such the state employees are not using to this change\nyet. But the president approach is the perfect voice, words, and behavior to\ninitiate that change. Sometimes he will have to lay off some of those employees\nif they are not following the road map to prosperity vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prosperity vision\nis not another piece of broken promises which was brought to people by previous\nRanil and Maithree ruling to snatch the power of the country. They brought up\nabout number of set of promises and all of them targeted to deceive people and\nsnatch the power of the country. The last one was the funniest and once and for\nall for the country. Which was brought up by Designer gay finance minister\nMangala Samaraweera , which was called Enterprise&nbsp; Sri Lanka\u201d. The meaning was to sell entire\ncountries assets to private firms of locally and internationally and making the\ncountry bankrupt. So we all aware this was the reality too place over a period\nof time in this country. Our state sector public employees were not doing\nanything creative, at that time. Thinking out of the box to bring our economy\ntowards progressive direction, wasn\u2019t necessary, because the end result was\nmaking the country poor and have some wealthy business people in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Gotabhaya\nand previous leaders comparatively different in many ways. He has a clear laid\nout plan for the development of the country. He is mobilizing state service and\nresources towards it. His meetings with state service employees and visits\nsignifies symbolic encouragement towards objectives. This leadership we haven\u2019t\nhad over a period of time. Today state service and state department aware to\nperform otherwise they know they need to face consequences. President is\ntrustworthy, competent, committed, passionate, resilient, collaborative, and\nhonest. Usually in western countries these were called soft skills, but today\nthey are hard to earn skills and maintain. As I explained courageous leadership\nof his conduct and behavior with above skills make him the very right leader to\nour country.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attorney General\nDappula de Livera has announced the prisons of the country, have become the\nplaygrounds of criminals and pointed out that the prison department lacked\nhonest and efficient officers. This is a serious comment made by top government\nlaw officer in public, that the state prison officers are corrupted handling\ndrug dealers and prisons are safe heaven for them to continue their criminal\nactivities. The question is how can we find solutions for these activities and\nimplement law and order. Illegal activities have been in place at prison and\ncome to surface through media, then only public will aware of these type of\nincidents. What can we expect from these criminals doers for the country; they\nalready have inflicted heavy damages to our children, public and younger\ngeneration. We need to convict them in&nbsp;\ncourts in an expedite passion and must be given capital punishment.\nNobody will find bad about it. Human right organizations won\u2019t find solutions\nfor the heavy social damage caused by these dangerous convicts to our younger\ngeneration of the country. If a country need to be civilized and disciplined,\nand to have law abiding people who in these circles need to act now. Again\ntowards prosperity vision\u201d cannot achieve without sacrifices and dedicated\npeople. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kabir Hashim the\nformer parliamentarian at Balaya Program\u201d tried to convince public that\ngovernment is failed ruling and making in roads to a Military Junta rule. Mr.\nKabir must be a long standing politician for his people but finding faults that\nway is not worth to a politician of a long standing. The people of Sri Lanka\nvery well aware how your group of people acted in the past in parliament.\nPeople aware the drama you played in the previous Ranil regime. I must tell now\nthe country has a leadership. It is not only a leadership but courageous\nleadership which means standing clear and firm in his vision and working\ntowards it every moment of his leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muhudu Maha\nViharaya is a national heritage of our country. According to ancient deeds\nwritten down the land belong to temple must be allocated and preserved as a\nnational heritage. Some Moslem politicians want to change the historical\nheritage by occupying lands of north and east for political gains, but please\ndon\u2019t play games with Sri Lankan heritage. As you know over the years the\nprevious government did not do anything to preserve them. They encouraged the\nvandalism of Buddhist statues and cultural heritage of our country. These\nmonuments and statues evident and they are cultural proofs our history. They\nmust be preserved and protected for the future. At the same time laws must\nimplemented preserved the integrity of them. It has to be common Tamil ancient\nhistorical values and moslem, christianity as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following\nwas appered in EU site regarding eligibility for GSP Plus. This is a serious\ncomment made by them .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repealing\nthe Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA) was a commitment made by Sri Lanka to the\nEuropean Union (EU) in the lead-up to SL\u2019s readmission to GSP+ as well as to the\nUNHRC in April 2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a\nserious comment and this is the way they enter into our internal matters. This\nis how western countries want to enter into our internal matters. I believe it\nis totally unacceptable to sacrifice our national security and for economic\nreasons. Mangala Samaraweera did this 4 years ago, in front of the world body\nwithout the consent of the president or our parliament. He will suffer for all\nhis political career for that national crime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People who can\nmake a contribution to our society; this is the time to come up by using of\ntheir platform to message and transform for change. One simple example for that\nas such the famous Janapriya\u201d Comedy series. Most recent comedy is a wake up call and a message\nstrongly addressing the public to select the correct candidate in upcoming\nelection. This is plain and simple what everybody need to do make use of their\nplatform, people who can influence to make that change. Like wise people who\ncould make the difference please don\u2019t be silent and\nuse your platform to message and educate public with creativity. Then only\nchange will take place and can hope for better. There is huge responsibility\nfor media. We had enough suffering in this country. Now it is the time to move\nforward with the right courageous leadership and every single person bears the\nresponsibility doing individual part rather than focusing their rights in the\nupcoming national election.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunil Yatalamatta Gamage\u00a0 People have voted me to build this country; we need to identify industries and entepreneurial businesses, and funded them during this time to bring back the economy\u201d\u201d -Hon: President Gotabhaya Rajapakse None of the Sri Lankan leaders couldn\u2019t build a country people wanted to have; President Gotabhaya is the only hope.Following media [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-103976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-forum","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=103976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103976\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=103976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=103976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lankaweb.com\/news\/items\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=103976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
