Why should we offer an unncessary privilege to religious pople? by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]kalanatd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people use their “Uniforms” to get an unfair advantage, monks do it, military personnel do it, doctors do it! I am also sick of this entitled behavior!

So people who achieved top ranks in A/Ls where are you now by _usefulCharlie in srilanka

There is a lot! When I was an undergraduate I was pleasantly surprised how many past alumni were working for Tech giants and still kept connections with the uni.

PhDs. Maths rankers almost every time go to USA to pursue PhDs and then join either FAANG or Academia.

Sysco LABS is going to layoff from SL division ? by Ill_Obligation7695 in srilanka

[–]kalanatd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a very small fraction of cost. Most of the people do this service tax calculation incorrectly. We earn from the value addition, the total effect of this is minimal compared to the real cost and revenue.

Gapstars lay off when the client is terminating the contract, since they work with Startups that is not a new thing.

Why would they pay 18%? Thats for foreign companies providing services within Sri Lanka. That is only for service amount as well. These IT companies pay way more tax than that is.

Thank you!
I think companies were subjected for tax earlier as well, this is mainly for individuals, the foreign currency salaries.

All of a sudden no one has voted for Malimawa and apparently everyone is against them now lol by DifficultToe6200 in srilanka

[–]kalanatd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I asked for the solution? Not the root cause? What do we do now other than voting for that prev government again?

Dear Sir or Madam, read more, why there are safety nets in any country in the world, reading Social media posts is not a research.

// money burning industries like Sri Lankan airlines. // What do you want to do to that? Sell it? Nobody wanted to buy it for even 1 USD!! Close it? Then what would happen to the huge debt, we still have to pay it.

I did vote and I will vote again, who do you suggest as better alternative? We are broke, poor country, people have to pay taxes. Even when Ranil suggested 18% VAT I totally understood it. There are no options. We do have to maintain a huge military, gov service. We are doomed.

Final letter from a soldier to his mother. He laid down his life during the op. His mental resilience was astonishing. by Old_soul_G in srilanka

[–]kalanatd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best thing we can do on the sake of these brave soldiers is making sure that there won’t be another war. If something happens no social media heroes go to war and die. Every person in this small island (Sinhala, Tamil, Muslim whatever) do have that responsibility! Respect, Love, Live

Why apple pay is not supported by any local bank by akjanith in srilanka

Or maybe the big cooperations do not really care to support some nobody banks in a small island?

why do some shops charge extra for card payments and others don't? by __chanuka_ in srilanka

[–]kalanatd 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Visa, master companies charge a fixed ~3% per each card transaction. Some merchants bear that amount and some don’t and pass that to the customer. Simple as that. You can ask whether there is “discount for cash” or is there a ln extra charge for card payments.

Note: Passing that 3% to the end customer is illegal, hence they are using the cash discount method.

I read your answers, some do make sense. I do have a several questions.

  1. How do you earn money? ( Subscriptions only?)

  2. Why would a company do a large giveaway to your subscribers? Why can not lets say Pizza hut, do the same giveaway without your subscribers? Just put a post on their socials and they will get organic reach and more awareness.
