I hope we have learnt from the kiribath era not to make kiribath right now. If we haven’t then there is longer way to go to change the way things have been. #SriLankaCrisis

Truth? What are we talking about? I had just thought that maybe SP is the best candidate for the job mainly because of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya team and then I saw this. Comms - total - fail. So then how to run a country? Let alone rebuild? #SriLankaCrisis

Hearing many #SriLanka Twitter discussions about potential candidates for President, but not a murmur about any potential female candidates. Women 🥰 We applaud them when they protest on our behalf & completely forget they exist when it’s time to elevate someone to power 👎🏾

I don’t know how 225 individuals, majority of whom are incompetent, choosing a president to lead us out of the worst financial crisis in our history is a good thing? How it is an occasion to “game on”? Please please please work on your comms. Samagi Jana Balawegaya Sajith Premadasa

I have had enough experience in Gov to know that what is really needed is a concerted effort with the involvement of comms specialists to enable Gov to communicate better. So much chaos can be avoided if there were coherent efficient communications! #SriLankaCrisis

The president-elect tomorrow will have the task of steering the country through one of the most troubled times in Sri Lanka's history. As MPs should make this decision with a clear conscience, they should not be burdened with inside deals. Protests shouldn't disturb them either.

Dear Dullas Alahapperuma let’s start with declaring your assets shall we? And also the racist thing - I know there has been an apology but we’re watching you. Expecting to see the 19A re-enacted. Be smart about your cabinet. Say no to the Rajapakses. Let’s take it from there.

People matter. We have all these problems because our decision makers, both political and in the bureaucracy, have forgotten this. I remember growing up with Manike Akka, I unlearn and check myself everyday so that I will never forget her. #Selyn #SriLanka #SriLankaCrisis

NO to #RanilRajapakse led violence. Our country has suffered enough. There is a better approach to ending the protests and that’s for you to discuss and negotiate on the demands made by the #Aragalaya. #SriLankaProtests #SriLankaCrisis

NO to violence. RW_LK take your role as our President seriously and come to a table to negotiate on #Aragalaya demands. This cowardly act is despicable. Shame on you! #SriLankaCrisis

This is a violation of our rights. Hope no international government will negotiate with #srilanka when there are blatant lack respect for our basic rights. #SriLankaCrisis

LKR 3,228,538,000,000.00 (10 billion USD at today's ex) was how much Microsoft invested in OpenAI for a piece of ChatGPT. And our lokka is talking about LKR 1,000,000,000.00 (~3 million USD). "You can fool some people all the time and all the people some time, but in SL..."
