There are quite a number of MP’s in the parliament who spend their time just seating like dummies. Mr Arjuana Ranathunga and Ven. Uduwe Dammaloka are well-known among this category, and we have herd of tiger proxies in the parliament who are mere dancing into the tune of tiger terrorists and not to mention the political clown like Mervin Silva who was made last in the preferential vote in Colombo district, still somehow creep into the parliament in shameless manner. Parliament is not to play devil nor for those who need to burn their extra calories.
It is in this backdrop that senior Presidential Advisor Basil Rajapaksa is to be sworn in as a national list MP today to fill the vacancy created by the demise of Irrigation Minister Anwer Ismail. It is believed that once Basil Rajapaksa is appointed an MP, he will be appointed as the Cabinet Minister of Nation Building.
This is the time where the nation is badly in need for leadership and the nation has apprehended the meaning of leadership. There was a time when political clowns and witches were procession in front of the nation by NGO mafia and foreign forces as leaders using their media network.
Still these media networks work crazily to cell their old agents as leaders, but the people of this country has march extra mile ahead of these vicious forces.
The whole political system in this country were under the custody of these foreign forces through their local agents CBK and Ranil. UNP never manage to come out of this grip but it was Mahinda Rajapaksa from Ruhuna who managed to defeat this evil grip in SLFP.
People were desperate to break free and finally they found a leadership. Now it is the time for gradually cleansing this mechanism and removing microbes from national politics. We need fresh leadership for this and luckily we are blessed with not just one leader, but a family of true born leaders.
It was under Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s prudent politico-military leadership that the war against terrorism is winning and the whole Eastern province has already been cleared. It is Basil Rajapaksa who took leadership in reviving the Eastern province economically and socially by withholding the winning flag hand over by military leadership.
If any one ask the question of which is the most successful task under this government, the unanimous answer is the ‘war against terrorists’ which is sphere headed by Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
That is why all the pro LTTE evil forces are targeting Gotabaya physicall and politically. That is the sole reason that these anti nationalistic groups lead by Ranil Wickramasingha try to spread false fear of existence of ‘Sahodara Samagama’ (brother’s union), because they clearly identified the threat if Basil Rajapaksa come into the political arena, it is economy and infrastructure development that is going to be rise next. It is a bold decision by Mahinda Rajapaksa to elect Basil as a MP in order to get the maximum use of his leadership and talent and we are pretty confident that just as his brother Gotabaya, Basill will justify for the responsibility his Mahinda is vesting on his shoulders.
When king Gamunu was busy fight against Elara’s invasion, it was prince Tissa who took up the challenge of boost up the prosperity in the south in order to wage the war successfully and roles of both the brothers were written in gold in the history.
