Speaking to Daily Mirror online, Dr. Mahin Mendis stated that at a  meeting in 2008 with President Mahinda Rajapakse, the Association was  assured of a salary revision within three months and that in 2009 when  the teachers had approached the government on the matter stating they  would strike, Minister of Economic Development Basil Rajapakse had  promised a 25-50% increase in academic allowances.           According to Dr. Mendis, the Association is demanding that the 25-50%  increase in academic allowances be made until the salary revision is  made by the President.<a href="http://www.dailymirror.lk/index.php/news/4800-lecturers-to-go-on-strike-.html" target="_blank">Dailymirror</a></blockquote>
