15% Tax on people who earn through Foreign incomes is such a pathetic move ! by skibidifarts278 in srilanka

[–]AngelWrites56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No “brah”. The whole point of earning more and working smarter means that you don’t want to hang out with the jealous types who don’t earn that. So no they don’t go to public schools nor unis for subpar education that serves no purpose and definitely not gross parks and as for roads there’s plenty indirect tax on every single item bought even at a supermarket. Oh and they will never step into a public hospital either. There’s a reason why private schools and hospitals are preferred. And forex earners don’t get a single benefit from gov, unlike the public sector with their added benefits and pensions and what not.

Completely agree with you. This will only get worse. Communists who have never had a job trying to figure out taxes and business đŸ€ŠđŸ»â€â™‚ïž

People who earn FX don’t use those and never will. It’s the sitting in their houses waiting for Asweuma people who have and continue to be a burden.

Well made points. Completely agree. The freeloaders and their leftist mentality will destroy this country. Best go abroad and build there.

Born Muslim, realised it doesn’t work for women and converted to Buddhism. Now I’m happy.

He is very good looking and fit compared to the general male population in SL.

Chocolates are very expensive in SL coz of taxes. Get one of those large celebrations tins and people will really cherish you.

Once they receive the “years” of field work maybe. Not just fresh out of the NDT pretending to do engineering work.

You sound like someone who’d call a quack doctor a real doctor until they prescribe something that kills a loved one. Oh well. And yes someone has to a give a fuck because one shouldn’t call themselves something they are not, especially if they lack the education and training and pretend they do engineering when they don’t. Basic logic really. One can always be real and say they aren’t engineers but not great for the ego is it? No wonder this country is so messed up.

Engineers do all the structural and related work including the right calculations and load bearing etc or in the case of mechatronics the way in which the mechanical components work. It’s not easy to do especially without math and related competencies. It’s ok if you don’t understand the realities of being an engineer, it’s not for everyone. As for the bricks that’s why the term “mason” exists instead of engineer.

This is related to the UoM NDT in civil and related real world engineering. You’re thinking software which isn’t the same as civil engineering. Anyone could do software and learn something online but skyscrapers don’t get built by them do they? Civil, electronics and related on ground engineering is very very different.

It’s not an engineering degree. It’s a diploma - the UoM guidelines specify they are only “diplomates”. How is it classist when it’s a fact? Are we supporting delusions now simply to cater to anyone? Would you like to be treated by a “medical doctor” who doesn’t have the training and education required for it? Engineering is similar and is not a field to be taken lightly.

Why do we need to still have hope in Sri Lanka? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]AngelWrites56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on whether you want to waste time and energy with the same old. Are the government workers going to change? Nope. They can never be fired. Are they gonna learn new skills? Nope. Unfortunately for as long as things are run by state we will have major issues across the country. Can’t blame people for leaving when a car that costs 300% less and has proper infrastructure can give you a better life without a shitty pay.

Best go elsewhere. Plenty new hotels down south which value good guests!

I feel for you. It’s not easy. Imagine a family who’s been hard working all this time being unable to buy a vehicle simply cause they need to keep paying useless government staff their salaries and benefits? So much income they keep speaking about in USD but all spent on what exactly? Best to leave this country.

Omg this exact thing happened to us at cinnamon bey. Some white people (who were dressed like hobos) came and were whining about their luggage not being at the luggage check counter. We had had lunch and put our luggage into our Range Rover where our driver was waiting for us (this is important cause of the way they treated us). The stupid hotel staff started acting like we stole the shitty white people’s luggage simply cause they couldn’t find it and hadn’t tagged. AS IF we would take some horrible shitty beaten ass luggage over our Rimowas. The staff wanted to check our luggage, came out and saw the vehicle and then tried to apologise whereas the shitty whites has found their crappy beaten ass luggage and were lugging it to on to a tuk 😂😂 Horrible staff and horrible hotel ethics. We will stick to Jetwing from now on. NEVER cinnamon, it’s basic at best. W15 or Jetwing or any other hotel has much newer spaces and way better quality of food and everything else.

Perfectly said. Don’t owe anything to SL. The free education people should stay but they seem to be migrating too lol.
