That guy Fernandopulle makes me spitting mad. He just had a party for 450 people at Water’s Edge (golf club). This is to celebrate being appointed Treasurer of the SLFP – chief robber baron of this land of thieves. Please note that I pay taxes. I pay at least 10,000 every month out of my paycheck, plus I pay tax on petrol, food and all and sundry. Just to say, I paid for that party. We paid for that party. This same Battaramullam Booruwa, last week in Parliament he admitted that Mahinda and 192 of his closest ass-washers spent half a million dollars for a tour to China. As a return on our investment, we established a Friendship City Guangzhoue. And everyone got a commerative charm bracelet. You fucking cunts. Please stop spending my money like you earned it. Build a tank or a temple, fine, that’s how king’s used to be judged. Keep bellies full and keep the faith. Today, politicians just buy a Benz and corrupt the faith. Now they don’t give a fuck about history, and they don’t give a fuck about me.
Anyways, if you weren’t keeping an eye on things – our soldiers are dying up North, 600,000 people still do not have homes, is still on death row in the evil Saudi kingdom, etc, erratum. This is a government that spent Rs 22 million on hoardings to fellate Mahinda for a year of robbery and only gave Rs 18 million to compensate Mavil-Aru farmers. This is a government dedicated to selling out our national security, freedom and very lives. I’m not saying that I don’t like pol sambol. I’m Sri Lankan and I got my feet, money and heart here if you want to call me a traitor. Denial isn’t patriotism, and things are seriously fucked up. Our leaders are corrupt to the core and this fish is rotting from the head. Once respectable men like Milinda Moragoda are polishing Mahinda’s balls. Our Opposition is led by two men without the courage to even acknowledge their own (homo) sexuality. The UNP is corrupt, the SLFP is depraved, the JVP are insane, and the JHU are an embarrassment.
And I still believe in democracy. It’s sucks but, you know, what else? I think Sri Lanka should add just one thing. Next time we vote, I want ‘None Of The Above’ as an option. Half of these fuckers don’t need to be replaced, they need to be fired. These people ignore us in their offices and stop us in the streets. Half of them should be fired, starting from the top. Politically impossible of course, like Ranil and Mangala admitting that they’re gay or Mahinda admitting that he stole tsunami money and gave money to the LTTE. But anyways, my vote is for ‘None Of The Above.
How would you measure how developed a country is?
Is it per capita gross domestic product?
Is it the adult litracy rate?
Is it life expectancy, i.e. how long on average people live?
Is it infant mortality, i.e how many new born babies die within 1 year?
Sri Lanka is ahead of India on any one of those indicators. Just do a web search, statistics for these things are available all over the place. Don’t be taken in by all the hype.
To say that India is a developed country is at best a joke. It is progressing very fast and at this rate they will become a rich country very soon, but as of now it is still a very poor country. I really doubt if they were crazy to declare themselves a developed country already. Do you have any references to that claim? I did a web search and couldn’t find any article anywhere stating that India has declared itself a developed country day before yesterday!
i was referring to Education, Science, Technology
Our statistics are high because we have very less amount of people comparing to India, we don’t have any major development in our country since 80’s apart from general development which affects to the whole world, but India is far more developed in sectors i have mentioned above,for example indias MIT,Dillhi,IIT is among the top 100 universities in the world read

But its commonly believed that india is going to be a developed country in 2020

AT LEAST THEY HAVE A PLANE TO BE, ASK A SRI LANKAN POLITICIAN WHAT IS THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOE NEXT YEAR?
i was just thinking…
so our money is spent (wasted) on expensive parties for politicians
and all we do is make a blog post… bitch about it while having a few beers with some friends…
our (democratically) elected leaders will still continue to spend (waste) tax money
and the cycle continues…
we citizens (peasants) are nothing after we’ve (democratically) elected our (idiot) leaders
hmmmm…. pathetic isnt it????
much anger i sense in young sittingnut
sittingnut – why are you so hostile??
off topic -> while all this was going on there were these two scientists who claimed that they made a quantum tunneling observation to suggest that photons can travel faster than the speed of light

if u go thru this blog, u’ll c my (original) country is the same. this has ahppened recently and could be applied to seri lanka
we had to resort to web born protests, then to the streets, collected signatures for a popular law (50.000 needed, over 200.000 in 2 hours collected). the popular law to be discussed in the italian parliament will be 3 points:
1- mps/ministers/etc. foung guilty in the past and future can’t sit in parliament.
2- they can’t have more than 2 terms in office
3- at elections, parties must indicate candidates (this applies to Italy)
all this is to combat corruption (in ITaly). could it be done in sri lanka? can’t ppl collect signatures fo referendums etc? cant’ “popular laws” with signatures, be discussed passed here? anyone know the law?
check this great comedian’s blog, it’s also in english. he started his blog, got pissed off, created a MASSIVE movement. of course snobbed by all media, but made it thanks to his blog. theres a cahcne of getting rid of 181 corrupt mps and around 200 corrupt senators from the italian gvmnt!?!?!!!!!!at last…..!how many would disappear in sl?
p.s.
adi, ur funny!
