There is no legal, moral, ethical or even spiritual justification for child ordination. A person that's too young for the vote is too young for the robe.

@OrevaZSN AI requires human input to evolve and have current information. Now that forums are long gone, social media is almost all noise and people in general feel less inclined to share knowledge, we are at the precipice of “garbage in, garbage out”.

When talking about an efficient government, also talk about this. I still haven’t received a reply from the Presidential Secretariat regarding my RTI request. Their phone line abruptly cut me off multiple times when I called to inquire about it. The fact that it has taken nearly two months to provide details relating to the highly publicised Ditwah Fund speaks volumes about the efficiency of this Government. It is unbelievable that these figures are not readily available. Can your office please provide me with an answer, President @anuradisanayake? If not, kindly inform me in writing and I will take it on from there. #lka #DM #democraticmovement

According to @business , Sri Lanka's rupee has gone from the worst performing currency this month to the best in less than two full days. @CBSL has less than 24 hours to announce their policy rate decision that will make or break the Sri Lankan economy.

Colombo probably should consider some form of vacancy/speculation tax because the “empty tower” problem is very real. Luxury apartments everywhere. Lights off in half the building. And housing prices keep exploding beyond what actual Colombo salaries can afford. Apartments bought but not used. That’s actually “wealth parking”. We cannot of course blindly copy NYC policies without Sri Lanka-specific adjustments. But this is something our economists can divise a plan for. Something to consider. @anuradisanayake @BimalRathnayake @Chathurangaab @Dr_HariniA

Our new pied-à-terre tax will have the ultra-wealthy elite — those who own $5 million apartments in New York City but don’t actually live here — pay their fair share.

This is why early sex education is important. Sex Ed is not about teaching children how to have sex. It's about teaching them to name their bodies, understand consent & boundaries. When children can't use the correct words for their private parts, their stories are doubted, cases are dismissed, & rapists walk free.

Sri Lanka’s Court of Appeal has overturned the conviction of a Buddhist monk sentenced to 10 years in prison for grave sexual abuse, ruling that the teenage complainant’s evidence was “unreliable” due to critical inconsistencies. D: newswire.lk/2q1u

As we approach Vesak, a time of compassion & giving, let us reflect on the true meaning of දාන - the gift of life. One person has the power to save up to 8 lives & touch more than 50 others. Take a step towards kindness & learn how you can become an organ donor. youtu.be/nTbWXQcSWSk?si…

Toyota Lanka has taken out ads in today’s papers saying it will not raise prices on existing stocks despite the customs duty surcharge effective from May 16 for three months. Dealers stuck with large unsold fleets were hoping to cash in, but Toyota has dampened their euphoria.

@gayaradesilva They genuinely don't understand, don't want to understand. It's much easier to compare a metric so vaguely. Sad but true.

What is happening today is NOT remotely the same as what happened under Gota. In 2022, many countries faced the same conditions without ending in sovereign default. The real issue under Gota was macroeconomic mismanagement: - artificially pegging the rupee - draining reserves - reckless tax cuts - excessive money printing - delayed IMF engagement, import bans, and denial around the scale of the crisis. Don’t rewrite history with twisted narratives. External shocks expose vulnerabilities. Bad policy management determines whether those shocks become a full economic collapse. As for today, yes excess market liquidity, weak investor confidence (we are still a stabilizing economy), dollar demand and lack of FDIs are all part of the current pressure. But that still does NOT make it structurally identical to 2022. Today’s conditions: - our reserves are in a better position - the exchange rate is more flexible - the IMF framework exists - CBSL credibility is far significantly higher today (Cabraal was a fool). Sri Lanka remains highly vulnerable to geopolitical shocks because we are still an import dependent economy, especially on energy. That reality does not disappear in near term because governments change. Global oil shocks are not due to stabilize anytime soon either. The market data already shows this. There is more to be done, but one next step the government should take to protect reserves and naturally control demand is to remove the fuel subsidy. Highly unpopular move, people will scream and shout, but cost reflective fuel pricing is important. People really need to stop comparing every currency movement to 2022 as if all economic conditions are identical. You are not helping the country with misinformed narratives like this. You are also publicly displaying your lack of understanding of what’s happening in the market, or geopolitically.

The Government has decided to formulate an Inbound Labour Migration Policy for Sri Lanka aimed at regulating foreign workers entering the country for employment purposes, according to Cabinet decisions. Cabinet noted that while Sri Lanka has traditionally focused on managing overseas employment opportunities for Sri Lankans, requests are now being made in several sectors to recruit foreign workers with skilled, semi-skilled and specialist expertise.

@NewsWireLK Sri Lanka don't have enough experts for some specialized feilds, for some feilds no one here at all. So if our companies need to be competitive with the international markets and to grow beyond local mindset. We need foreign workers to come and work here with us.
