Cash-strapped airline Mihin Lanka’s former CEO Sajin Vaas Gunawardane was appointed as the UPFA’s Galle district organizer by President Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday. Mr. Gunawardane is also a Presidential Advisor.
The President recently gave a number of electoral organizer appointments, mostly to UNP MPs who switched allegiance to the Government. Foreign Minister Rohitha Bogollagama was appointed as the organizer for the Kotte electorate.
Meanwhile, Non-Cabinet Nation Building Minister Susantha Punchinilame is slated to be appointed as the organizer of the Seruwila electorate in the Trincomalee district.
Mihin Lanka lost Rs. 3.2 billion when he was the chairman of ‘Mihin Air.’ [/font]
