Mahinda Rajapakse lost the Presidency, the rumour was that Basil\u2019s decision making process was not palatable to politically naive MPs and Ministers<strong>, including Wimal.\u00a0 <\/strong>Basil at that time said:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>If Prez Mahinda lost the Office because of me, then I will take the blame;<\/li>\n<li><strong>If\u00a0 Prez Mahinda lost the Office because of me, then I will make sure I BRING HIM BACK TO POWER.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Then,\u00a0 last October he said in Hiru SALAKUNA, that Podujana Peramuna will win at least 200 members.\u00a0\u00a0 This was well before declaring the nominations for the election.<\/p>\n<p>Then,\u00a0 6 February, just 4 days\u00a0 prior to the Election, Mr Basil Rajapakse said, the SLPP will win as close as 250 members.<\/p>\n<p>Basil Rajapakse \u00a0is like Prof Peter Drucker.\u00a0 Prof. Drucker never wrote big books.\u00a0 His books were all small, but the contents were absorbing.\u00a0 The Practice of Management\u201d, Managing for Results\u201d,  An Effective Executive\u201d are now standard collection in the private library of any professional manager.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong>Basil Rajapake is innovative, a leader of a think tank. Mr Gotabaya Rajapakse is visionary and get the job done.\u00a0 Mr Mahinda Rajapakse is a Leader, he is clever to use Basil, Gota, Dinesh, Vasu, Great Wimal Weerawansa, Gammanpila, \u00a0a political chemistry much needed at the moment.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This government is like stale food.\u00a0 President Maithreepala has only one option.\u00a0\u00a0 He must appoint Mr Mahinda Rajapakse to the highest office of the land.\u00a0 <strong>SLPP during elections period, quite clearly advocated that once the LG election was won, we will change the government sooner than later. The general public had placed faith in SLPP and expect delivery of results. SLPP must go hard to capture power now, otherwise foreign powers will use their power to prevent Prez Mahinda Rajapakse capturing power.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>WE CANNOT TRUST RANIL, MAITHREE, KIRIELLA, SAJITH, WIJEDASA RAJAPAKSE AND MALWATEE MAHANAYAKAYA. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Still 18 months away for major Election.\u00a0\u00a0 The people are suffering as a result of economic disaster.\u00a0 The international reputation of Sri Lanka is at the lowest ebb.<\/p>\n<p>Is Ranil a LEADER?\u00a0 Once again, the Prof. Drucker said The only\u00a0<em><strong>definition of a leader <\/strong><\/em>is someone who has followers.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0Ranil\u2019s main aim was to destroy\u00a0 Buddhism, Sinhala Nationalism.\u00a0 His mind set is European. He does not care Buddhism, Sinhalese, Tamils or Muslims.\u00a0 He is married to upper echelons of the society, he likes God, he likes Cricket, he likes LGBT, he like to make false promises, <strong>he is an INTELLIGENT CROOK, <\/strong>\u00a0<strong>he is capable of deceiving people because he thinks that people will listen and believe him.\u00a0 There are millions of UNPers still in Sri Lanka to vote for him. That is why he is still in power, with FOREIGN INTERVENTION.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Prez Maithreepala must realise that he and his party were rejected by the people and he has no where to go.\u00a0 The UNP did farely well and the masses are more angry with MS than RW, because PRESIDENT MAITHREEPALA SIRISENA IS NOT PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL.\u00a0 THAT IS A FACT.<\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Prez. MS must bring back\u00a0 the greatest leader of our country \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prez Mahinda Rajapakse to:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Scrap the proposed new constitution and dispatch Mr Jayampathi Wickremaratne into oblivion;<\/li>\n<li>Scrap 13 and 19 amendments to the constitution;<\/li>\n<li>Recover Bond Scam funds and pump those funds to upgrade hospitals, including providing wheel chairs to elderly, compulsory ambulance service with a tax levy, provide medicine at affordable prices, provide free treatment for macular degeneration, glucomina;<\/li>\n<li>Extend working hours to 40 hrs per week, reduce overtime;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If Prez Maithree soft-peddle, both Ranil and Maithree will be dispatched to the bottom of the harbor.<\/p>\n<p>In regard to Bond Scam, there is a strong argument for criminal breach of trust by Mr Ranil Wickremasinghe. Usually Ranil does not get involved in issues like these.\u00a0 But as UNP\u00a0 was out of power for many years, accumulated losses were straggering, he\u00a0 might have been relucatanly compelled to explore alternative paths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Even if Ranil is found guilty for Bond Scam, there is no need to put him in Jail\u00a0 ( IN JUMPERS.)\u00a0 \u00a0This is my personal opinion. \u00a0It was an error of judgement on his part to become a politician<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By M D P DISSANAYAKE BASIL RAJAPASE\u2019S\u00a0 SKILLS\u00a0 AND EFFECTIVENESS SUPREME!
