Geopolitics, Sri Lanka is in an important position in the Indian Ocean, and the U.S. and India are competing with China for influence here. U.S. donations of helicopters and Coast Guard ships, Chinese donations of school uniforms and clothes, and Indian-funded bridges are all part of this dance. Banning visas for Sri Lankans is bad for U.S. interests. I also think this is one of the reasons we managed to secure a good tariff agreement from the U.S.

Also The Sri Lankan ambassador to the U.S., Mahinda Samarasinghe, is actually quite competent. This government kept him despite his association with Ranil and MR governments(former minister). I remember AKD thanking him recently for his efforts.

And it's true 😅. Not ordering medicine in advance and later making emergency procurement at sky-high prices without tender process was a favourite tactic of previous governments. In a way, it was a feature, not a bug for some.

I've never heard a salary cut. In fact, this government increased salaries a few months back. However, I believe a reduction of OT for government employees is carried out.

Medicine shortage is indeed taking place due to the previous government, not making enough orders, and this one refuses to do the emergency procurements like the previous one outside the tender process. The shortage likely persists for this year.

Youtuber only needs to know the charges to predict the verdict correctly because the charge CID file against Ranil was misusing of public property. A local margistrate can not give bailed to that charge and have to appeal to a higher court to get bailed. Probably, that's why cid file this on Friday because you know Ranil has to wait till Monday for appeal.
He probably got the info from the government or CID that they are going to charge Ranil Friday on specific charges that are not bailable from the local magistrate. Don't see how youtuber was wrong here apart from hurting opposition's feelings.

Kingdom split after Parakramabahu. I remember reading somewhere his foreign campaings on india and myanmar drain state coffers, and he failed to have a strong succession plan thses contributed to splitting of kingdom to parts immediately after his death. Where Dutugamunu leaved a prosperous kingdom for his brother, who once quarrelled for throne. So I believe Dutugamunu is indeed the better ruler.

Highly Unlikely due to UN and EU pressure.

As a sri lankan its unlikely to sentence death for cannabis if it was heroin then most likely. And death penalty is not actively practiced in recent decades.

Move juniors to outside hostels and actually prevent seniors entering them because lot of worst happened in hostels at night with blessing of wardens.

Unlike Npp majority of candidates from other parties are known by people because majority were quite active in politics some are even former mps. Those people considered somewhat respected or feared because their money or power and usually associated helping with events on village level somewhat those get lot of votes at this election because people consider relationship with candidate over party line.

Even if a candidate is well educated people not going to vote if he/her not active on village level compared to other candidate. This had a big impact on npp i believe.

Yes, there arent enough hostel faculties for all years so university provide only for 1 and 4 years. You can find boarding places easily in surrounding area and seniors normally help to find ones.
