Sabry\nasks MPs to abhor Machiavelli type behaviour<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Hon. Justice Minister Ali Sabry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The above news item about your\npresentation in parliament on the debate on vote on account, is\nwoderfull though the full speech had not been published due to space\nmanagement – https:\/\/island.lk\/sabry-asks-mps-to-abhor-machiavelli-type-behaviour\/<\/a>. But,\nin my opinion as a Political Communication Researcher and a student of\nCommunication Studies, your speech to educate your member of parliament\ncolleagues on that day was like a “beautiful melody sung in the\nwilderness” of parliament. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking at the TV report on that\nspeech on TV, I found ONLY just a handful of the 225 MP’s present\/seated\nin the parliament well. The MP’s, 90%, both from the Government and the\nOpposition were “NOT PRESENT” to listen to your wonderful speech\nplease. Therefore, I most kindly request\/appeal to you to do something, with\nnotice to HE. the President, the PM and the Speaker to bring in parliamentary\nprocedures that will make it compulsory for all MP’s to be present during\nparliamentary sittings and debates in the future. MP’s failing to do so must be\nsubject to heavy penalties. This may not be your in your purview, but it will\nbe a great service to the nation and our “MAATHRUBOOMIYA”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YOU ARE THE ONLY MP\/MINISTER WHO CAN\nACCOMPLISH THAT TASK SUCCESSFULLY. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MP’s are elected by the people\nto be present in parliament to “LISTEN, THINK, PONDER, CONTEMPALTE and\nUNDERSTAND” issues and act accordingly for the benefit of the\n“PEOPLE”. They are NOT ELECTED to collect “pocket money and\nperks” at the end of every month and galavant around the country doing\n“NOTHING” at the taxpayers of the masses but staging\n“DRAMAS” for the media and TV broadcasters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
