It is said that Sri Lankans have short memories and most of the younger generation will not even know some of these facts. When it comes to Ranil Wickremasinghe, he has got away with so many wrongdoings it is unthinkable that he can run as a candidate against MR in the near future and hope to win. What he did at Batalanda against the JVP,\u00a0 the CFA agreement where he gave a free run to the LTTE in\u00a0 the north and east, the way he disclosed the names of the army long-range intelligence team to the public which resulted in the death of all of them by the LTTE who hunted them down and killed those brave soldiers. Then there is the famous Bond Scam which has cost the public of Lanka many billions of dollars, plus many more traitorous acts.\u00a0 \u00a0Those who are following Ranil Wickremasinghe for money are no more than political discards, traitors to Lanka.<\/p>\n

If you want to listen to the truth of how Ranil W saved Prabahakaran in 2001 resulting in the continued war and strife in Lanka, please watch the attached. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YZWO5fWDikQ<\/a><\/p>\n

Ranil is supposed to have agreed to a bridge to Sri Lanka from India in 2002. See:http:\/\/www.atimes.com\/article\/sri-lankans-oppose-bridge-with-india\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Ranil tried to give 2\/3 of the land to LTTE along with the Norwegians on a bogus Peace deal which was used by the LTTE to strengthen their defense systems. Entire container loads of equipment were allowed to go to the Wanni to LTTE on Ranil’s instructions. See:\u00a0http:\/\/www.island.lk\/index.php?page_cat=article-details&page=article-details&code_title=114673<\/a><\/p>\n

Ranil became a PM by trickery on Jan 2015. He could not contest Jan’15 (sure of losing), so he put Maithri forward and came behind him. Maithri got elected due mainly to the false campaign against MR led by JVP and others funded by foreign sources. The whole campaign against MR was based on lies. Maithri appointed Ranil as PM even when there was DM Jayaratne as PM and there was a UPFA Cabinet. At that time, no diplomats or JVP raised their voices against this illegal act.\u00a0 MR just gave up as the odds against him were many and he was tired (as Dayan Jayatillke put it), and he went back home to rest. Next, people realized what the Yahapalanaya new govt was up to and went by many thousands to MR’s home begging him to come back. At that time Maithri informed the public that he was forced to appoint Ranil as PM ‘by the west’.\u00a0 We presume this was part of the ‘Contain China’ program. Ranil then caused the Central Bank bond scam by appointing a foreigner as the Governor of Central Bank (an unlawful act) who proceeded to do a bond scam which has cost Sri Lanka a massive amount of money. Part of this money was used by him for the General Election in Aug 2015 which the UNP won only narrowly. In Aug 2015 Maithri created a problem for MR by announcing two days before the election that he will not appoint MR as PM even if he wins. I assume this was manipulated by Ranil and his foreign friends. Then President Maithri created massive confusion in the mind of the voting public in Aug 2015\u00a0 first by sacking the two General Secretaries of the SLFP and the UPFA on Aug 14 Friday at 3:00 pm just before the election.<\/p>\n

I believe Maithri is a genuinely sincere patriot. I think he believed in Jan 2015 that Ranil will bring foreign help to the country through his contacts with the West. Over three years he saw that this did not happen.\u00a0 It appears now that Ranil had other plans with his foreign friends. Also in the local government elections this year, Maithri saw the ‘writing on the wall’. The coalition government for 3 1\/2 years did very little other than importing luxury cars for MPs tax-free and pay massive salaries to themselves. What was done with the huge amounts of money borrowed by the coalition Government? They only stopped all the work MR had started in 2005 and then after Yahapalanaya govt lost the local Government elections (2018) badly they started frantically trying to do something along the lines of what MR had done in 2005. But the People of Lanka have seen through them.\u00a0 Ranil’s Neo-liberal policies will not work in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

The current Parliament is a comedy since the TNA which got only 16 seats is the Opposition while the SLFP and UPFA members who did not join the coalition are in the wilderness without any official recognition. All the JO group members were harassed at every turn by the speaker. Another illegal group called the FCID created by RW harass the opposition in the name of Yahapalanaya. He seems to get all these brilliant ideas which are obviously coming from the think tanks of the powerful countries. They passed the 19a in the parliament with the help of the JVP and the TNA. The 19 a was hurriedly put together by Jayampathy Wickramaratne, a man who was supposed to have been thrown out of the University for cheating, and it is obvious the main objective was to keep the coalition party in power till June 2019. But since the coalition broke up I believe that the President had every right to dissolve the Parliament and appoint a new PM acceptable to the majority in the Parliament which was the UPFA and the SLFP. Furthermore, Ranil tried to bring a bill to sell state land to foreigners which was stopped by the President. It is also stated by the President that Ranil, Sarath Fonseka, and Pujith were involved in a plot to assassinate the President. Ranil had the motive since he would have automatically have become the President if that happened. The TNA would have then got their objective of having a separate state. I am not a lawyer but just an ordinary citizen. Since the coalition broke up I think the best way to resolve the issue is to go before the people by having an election. It is very obvious that Ranil Wickremesinghe has no love for the country or the people. He has been a stooge of the powerful countries right from the beginning.<\/p>\n

Any other Govt which comes into power after this ridiculous puppet Govt must carry out a Plan to correct all the mistakes that have been done over the years by the Yahapalanaya govt. We must rename the country as “Sinhale” which was the ORIGINAL name of the country and the name used in the Treaty the British signed with the Chieftains of Sri Lanka in 1815 when they handed over the country to them.\u00a0 They must have an inquiry into the activities of Ranil Wickremesinghe over the years and prosecute him. When the Batalanda Commission found him guilty and removed his civic rights how did he manage to run for PM? Why is that no govt has carried out the orders given by the Batalanda Commission?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
