Praise to ex-President Ranil Wickremesinghe!

In the despicable absence of an urgent practical response on the part of the JVP/Anura Kumara Dissanayake-led NPP government to the devastating 28th March earthquake in Myanmar, ex-president Ranil Wickremesinghe has made a very kind, and sensible proposal regarding how to assist our disaster stricken fellow humans in that country, ex-president Wickremesinghe!

Thank you very much for saving, at least to some extent, Sri Lanka’s still unsullied reputation as a sovereign state populated by a most humane and hospitable people. You have again demonstrated your remarkable ability to emerge as an able state level troubleshooter at critical moments, this time though, just by being a mentor. I pity those of you that don’t think of adopting a more universally acceptable, less anglophile version of principled politics that will endear you to the general electorate again.

Induce the true patriots of the country to elect you to the hot seat, where you will have the chance to show your true colours!
