    When comparing her tone of voice in this video to most others in VION, it feels like Palki Sharma has a crush on Ranil Wickremasinghe. 😄 This is the most polite interview I have seen of hers.

      Oh come on man , everybody in SL knows that our president is gay. It's not a crime to be gay. But facts are facts !
      He is gay. He don't have any crush on girls.
      However his economic strategies are day today accepted by many people in SL. He is much more realistic. But there are tings that very slowly happening, like traffic laws in the road , very slowly improving. Actually it's a good thing that he is gay, because he don't have any children. If you have a daughter and if you are able to steal , won't you steal and invest that money on welfare of your daughter? So I'm positive that he is a gay person. I actually believe that president of Sri Lanka should be gay. However facts are facts ! He is gay and he have no crush on Palki. No way !

      @@dayawimalasuriya1330 Thank you for replying. I do not belong to any party in Sri Lanka and I am an indigenous Tamil. I accept that opposition parties didn’t take up the offer from GR because they didn’t want to soil their reputation. They handed over country’s leadership in a silver platter. But Ranil’s popularity at that time was in the doldrums. Therefore Ranil’s assumption that he can redeem himself by accepting the position in the government and become popular again is a reasonable one.
      In that sense he had nothing to lose and everything to gain is an acceptable statement. I believe that Ranil is more popular now among the Sinhalese than before. But this gain in popularity I believe is not enough for him to win the election. He is now quite unpopular among the Tamils. He believes that he can compensate this loss with Muslim votes is a forlorn home. I believe that Sajit’s party will garner the support of most Muslims.
      There is an accusation that Ranil protected the corrupt leaders, mainly the Rajapaksas. He will always be tainted with this accusation.

      @dayawimalasuriya1330 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@Shan-tz7ct Well I think you are reading the situation and Ranil's actions incorrectly. The reason Ranil accepted PM post in May 2022 was because no one else accepted ( those leaders ran away from the PM offer because they thought they will be unable to control the situation, not because they had any special credibility ) the position and a risky power vacuum was created with Mahinda resigning.
      As he cemented his position as PM, it was a given he would become President when Gota fled SL. Had Sajith, Fonseka or Anura accepted PM post in May 2022, they that person could have easily become President in July 2022.
      I think Ranil did the right thing as any senior statesman would do in a similar situaiton and he did a lot to stabilize the country and economy.
      I'm not saying Ranil dawned the utopia to SL, but SL is way better off now when compared to July 2022.

    @plasticneko 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +55

    In Sri Lanka, getting things done often boils down to your political ties. Whether it's permits, jobs, or welfare, having connections is key. The Rajapaksas had a tight grip on this corrupt system for the past two decades, using it as their vote-making machine. Since the '90s, every president was either from the Rajapaksas' party or danced to their tune. Without a shift in this heavily politicized system and empowering independent regulators, the Rajapaksas are set to keep dominating every government.

      Palki is tough and way too soft here, And RW is "bullshit" tough and he cannot get away with Palki if she wanted to be tough.
      eg: Ranil says Chinese ships are civilian ships and Palki doesn't question him back. Those ships are military surveillance and tracking ships actually whole world knows that (just google the names Yuan Wang-class )
      Ranil openly speak that he had talks with Modi on trinco developments, land connectivity and electricity grid connectivity. You see where SL goes.
      At the end of the day FirstPost works for India and she is doing India the favour that is the only reason this interview for.
      She doesn't requisition answers by RW on lot of matters but ask things again about China.
      Just be wise to understand that the need for the interview is to make India looks better and make China looks more ugly. (Both countries are doing the same to SL for last 30-40 years )
