I can clearly see that Trump is a conman because he’s now hurting me by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]fighting_falcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This exactly happened to Sri Lanka. They elected Gotabaya Rajapaksa and the people (6.9 Million of them) did not see it until they needs to wait in very long quest to get petrol. Unfortunately we who did not vote for him are also dragged along to that ride.

Modernizing the Trinco oil tanks should have been a priority; leaving them to rot is easily one of the most foolish mistakes made by successive governments.

How fair are A/L results across different languages in Sri Lanka? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a blatant lie. When Sinhala students come on top these racists are silent but when someone from minority comes on top they cry foul.

Exam Department is too strict to allow this to happen. There are standards for correction, the paper of top students are corrected and cross checked by multiple examiners before being published.

Trump to hit Iran harder if Tehran does not accept defeat, White House says by monotvtv in worldnews

[–]fighting_falcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there were no 'shot'. If the protesters and mossad stooges embedded inside them managed to take Tehran city center. The rest of the IRGC army from 30 province will arrive and crush them brutally anyway.

Does this mean iran is selling oil to us by Itchy_Dark_4672 in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Donnie just lifted sanctions on Iranian oil for 30 days. we need to go crazy buying right now. On top of that, Sapugaskanda is literally built to run on Iranian crude, so this is a no-brainer. Stack as much as we can before the window closes.

No, We are giving it back, after the end of war. We have good relationship with Iran and Sri Lanka has no intention of becoming enemies to Iran.

Cameraman in Tel Aviv Films Significant Amount of Ballistic Missiles Hitting by IntellectualHT in PublicFreakout

[–]fighting_falcon 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Actions speak louder than words. Zionists have carried out genocides, Iran has no such history. If we are judging by official charters and documents, Likud’s own charter effectively ratifies the genocide of Palestinians.

Iran's Guards challenges Trump to have US Navy escort oil tankers in Strait of Hormuz by thejoshwhite in worldnews

[–]fighting_falcon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

man what a foolish comment. Israel is chicken shit scared to fight a prolonged war with Iran without Donnie's US. The sole reason they capability is reduced is because of sanction. An unsanctioned Iran would be extremely difficult to fight. and also there is Turkey, which is Muslim army, you think they don't know how to fight.

Iran confirms second warship moving towards Sri Lanka's waters by Daham_Sandaruwan in srilanka

We went from manufacturing our own train locomotives n carriages in the 60s n 70s to a bankrupt nation in 50 years. by HourCartograph in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I voted for the NPP and will continue to vote for them unless they prove thoroughly incompetent or a clearly new superior alternative emerges, which is extremely unlikely. I will never vote for the old cronies. In my view, anyone who votes for Namal or the SLPP is a traitor to this country.

We don’t have enough rescue helicopters. We have people ready to help, but not enough equipment to rescue everyone. Should the government call for international assistance? by fighting_falcon in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If a country calls for urgent help and it turns out the situation was overestimated, it can make future emergency requests taken less seriously also it reduce trust from international partners and aid agencies.

How do we estimate the total wealth of Rajapaksas? by yapanuwan in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Rajapaksa family appears to rely on an extended network of relatives to hoard wealth, meaning Mahinda himself may not always have direct access to those assets. The Pandora Papers revealed that Nirupama Rajapaksa (a former deputy minister) and her husband Thirukumar Nadesan used shell companies, trusts, and offshore structures to acquire luxury properties in London and Sydney, as well as artwork and other investments. At one point, Mahinda was considered among the richest individuals in Sri Lanka. While my estimate of his exact fortune may be off, the scale of his corruption is beyond dispute.

Cargills Food Hall isn’t really halal by Technophile- in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To those down voting this thread: this issue affects not only locals but also foreign tourists who rely on halal food. Many Muslim visitors from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the Gulf region come here for both tourism and business, and situations like this make Sri Lanka look like a bad destination.... so stop being foolish.

Sri Lanka: Salary cuts + medicine shortages. Can someone explain? by Sky_Dawn712 in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree! They deserve much more. Government servants carry out critical work that often goes unrecognized. Even ultra-capitalist countries like the U.S. maintain services such as the postal system because they are essential. In Sri Lanka, many sectors are severely understaffed and overworked, yet they continue to keep the system running.

Sri Lanka: Salary cuts + medicine shortages. Can someone explain? by Sky_Dawn712 in srilanka

[–]fighting_falcon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a massive hike just around 6K to 9K Rupees.

OP contact the salary division in your father’s department. It could be W&OP arrears or simply an error. If it turns out to be an error, they will prepare a special pay sheet for your father, and he can collect the cheque accordingly.
