So our bus body manufacturing abandoned .  This happened not only to buses but also many other industries including textile eg Thulhiriya, .... , Oruwala Steel Corporation (we never made steel there but melted scrap iron and made ) but this was sold for a song by SLFP-JVP-JHU -SLMC coalition when prof GLP was deputy finance minister and Wimal, Champika, Hakeem were in cabinet , holding key ministerial positions. JVP never objected to sale and they had three ministerial positions in 30 member cabinet. MR held ministry of labour and later became even PM So what are we talking now about our industries now. These are good for social media and propaganda and may not be long term viable industries without state subsidy.</blockquote>
