@joekent16jan19 Finally some gutts! How many poor souls have died in this horrible war. No escape from Karma for the wicked 😡

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

@NewsWireLK Aimless people wondering aimlessly. Poor UK :(

Protest scenes in the UK as JVP General Secretary Tilvin Silva faced demonstrations by LTTE supporters during his visit to address the Sri Lankan community. Silva was in the UK to attend meetings and engage with expatriate Sri Lankans when the incident unfolded. 📸 Sisira Denipitiya

@NewsWireLK Best news heard in a while! Now let the citizens who have lived in poverty gain from these changes. Grateful to MR for ending the war, but the corruption & abuse of power during his reign was unprecedented.

“A lion is a lion, whether in the city or the wild,” said Manoj Gamage, spokesperson for former President Mahinda Rajapaksa, adding that both the government and the LTTE would celebrate the day Rajapaksa vacated the Wijerama residence in Colombo.

@NewsWireLK Just let it go PM, you have far greater issues to sort out than your image here. Don't you think this arrest has the hallmark of dictatorship?

“I challenge you to prove that I visited the hospital. If so, it will be proven that I lied.” Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya challenged a private news channel to prove that she visited former president Ranil Wickremesinghe in hospital, as claimed by a report the channel published.

@NewsWireLK The descent of the NPP has just begun. Had some faith in them, but it is eroding. An ungrateful Nation we are, period.

“My friend Anura… you’ll be able to understand the might of your friend after September 21,” President AKD said ahead of the September 2024 presidential election, adding that former President Ranil Wickremesinghe was attempting to curry favour by addressing him as a friend.

@NewsWireLK Thank goodness the religion I follow does not discriminate between people ☸️ 🙏

@narendramodi Congratulations Prime Minister Modi!! You have been a strength to Sri Lanka at all times ❤️

It is a matter of immense pride for me to be conferred the 'Sri Lanka Mitra Vibhushana' by President Dissanayake today. This honour is not mine alone - it is a tribute to the 1.4 billion people of India. It symbolises the deep-rooted friendship and historic ties between the people of India and Sri Lanka. I express my heartfelt gratitude to the President, the Government and the people of Sri Lanka for this honour. @anuradisanayake

@NewsWireLK Probe the late '80's killings too & better to have less talk & more work.

@JDVance Bully Vance is no second to Trump! How childish referring to the election campaign. 2 Egoists bullying the visitor & then saying America is being disrespected 😁

@JeevanThondaman 💯 Kanchana Wijesekera

Considering the NPP Government’s super majority in Parliament, it’s important that the opposition has Parliamentarians experienced in the ongoing reforms to hold the Government accountable. I hope that the remaining National List seat of the New Democratic Front is given to @kanchana_wij. Kanchana led the most ambitious and difficult reforms in the energy sector in our country’s history. He set the stage for competition, transparent pricing and accountability in our energy sector. He did all of this knowing that the political outcome of his decisions would not be good for him. Kanchana risked his electoral prospects so that the ultimate winner of his reforms will be the Sri Lankan consumer. Today, Sri Lankans are no longer beholden to the CPC or @LankaIOCPLC when buying fuel. Likewise, if we follow through with his reforms in the Electricity Act, Sri Lankans won’t be entrapped by the high prices and frequent power cuts of the @CEB_lk either. Like telecoms and fuel, Sri Lankans deserve the right to choose their energy provider and to be free from monopolies.

@NewsWireLK @EranWick @KalaniWrites SJB and it's talkers!

"Economy is a huge problem; internally, the NPP isn’t certain of what they’ll do or how they’ll do it," SJB's @EranWick speaks to Newswire's @KalaniWrites on Beyond the Ballot, as he addressed criticisms against the SJB leader and the new President’s economic challenges

@NewsWireLK Omg so the public is not informed 😔 Guess experience would make them act differently hopefully

We act on Intelligence, not hold Press Briefings - President newswire.lk/1n7c

@kanchana_wij Good luck Kanchana!

@AzzamAmeen Law of karma at its best!

For the first time in decades, Sri Lanka's Rajapaksa brothers won't be contesting in a Sri Lanka General Election

@AzzamAmeen Thank you @RW_SRILANKA & Team for your hard work to achieve this.

“Sri Lanka’s recent economic stabilization, marked by four quarters of growth and a current account surplus in 2023, is a significant milestone,” said David Sislen, World Bank Regional Country Director

@kanchana_wij @RW_SRILANKA @anuradisanayake We will always be grateful to @RW_SRILANKA🙏

It’s good to see that schemes approved, allocated funds through the treasury and initiated by President @RW_SRILANKA that was stopped by the election commission during the Presidential election recommencing under President @anuradisanayake. The fertilizer subsidy was increased from 15,000 to 25,000 and a fuel subsidy for fishermen was introduced as government policy decisions in August 2024 with the allocation of funds through the treasury. Solar panels for religious institutes was procured in March 2024 under the Indian Credit Line and the first shipment of the panels arrived in the country in July. All programs were put on hold by the Election Commission August. Letters from the election commission and the news articles of the approval 👇🏾

@TinkerbellNila @AzzamAmeen Hopefully no university strikes too 🤔

@AzzamAmeen He is not scared now . Bcoz all those who stormed the president’s house are his voters now. These roads were kept open by Gotabaya too but only closed after the Aragalaya

Closed roads to open : President Anura Kumara Dissanayake orders police to reopen Sir Baron Jayathilake mawatha & Janadhipathi mawatha near President's House, to the public from today

@alisabrypc Thanks to our former President, you & the Team @alisabrypc 🙏

We may not be a perfect nation—no nation truly is. Yet, despite our challenges, Sri Lanka remains a vibrant democracy, upholding constitutional governance, the rule of law, and an independent judiciary. Proud to call Sri Lanka home 🇱🇰
