Strength of a country is usually demonstrated to world by Independance Day (military power) ... Gaming activities organizing such as World cup matches, olympics, commonwealth....bla bla bla... and international meetings and summits (Ex: CHOGM) and even how president travels.
But we are soo cheap that we didn't even have a blasting Independance day, and president is too pathetic he don't spend money on where it should be spent.
Does anybody care to organize a blasting welcome when President of Somalia visit. How if president of USA visit?
This kind of recognition earned by Maithripala himself and that is how world see us now..
