    It was revealed in the parliament that Mahindadananda Aluthgamage was failed the O/L Exam and he said "I am not ashamed...". He must have meant it. Why should he?
    I also think that to be a politician educational qualification is not a requirement. Uneducated may be better for tooday's political culture for less conscious one is more he is qualified to develop.... himself and people who support him.

    Politcions are chosen by a majority of voters (probably by a lot mostly who are uneducated). Ability to gain most votes is the only requirement. Once the votes are counted, the one who has most votes is legally appointed. He can be a teacher, scholar, businessman, monk, priest, murderer, robber, rapist, gang leader, ...anybody...any nobody can become even the president if he can get votes. Then he would choose his type of candidates. Sometimes with some leaders special types of candidates are more in demand.... From D.S. Senanayake to Mahinda it had been so.

    ryt agree

    yes brother that is what I have explained to some of few who believe that an "academic education seal":lol: (the degree) should be neccesary for the political leadership....

    the degree is not a tool to misure the inteligence,
    and it is not even a tool to misure the creativeness of a person.


    what about Mahagamasekara, Martin wickremasinghe? Did they attended the universities? :lol:

    (I am so surprised to see that the SL education system has made so many idiots , who believs that the "academic seal" as a political leading element..)

    Osho says...

    "Now, as things are, the profession of the politician is the only profession which needs no qualification.
    Even if you want to be a plumber, some kind of qualification will be needed, some training in plumbing, some certificate. But if you want to be the president, no certificate is needed. It seems strange: plumbing is more important than the presidency! If you want to be a senator, no qualification is needed. If you want to be a teacher in a kindergarten school, qualifications are needed."
    Osho missed another profession. Jornalism. Absolutely needs no qualifications.
