    Do you really think loans can fix the situation? SL got a lot of loans during the past few months right?

    we have no other choice do we? we need loans or donations to make things normalize, we need to raise taxes and encourage foreign inflows, inflation may rise, and taxes may have to rise as well, if you have played sim city you would know.

    Also worth to mention, the donations or loans or foreign currency remittance, there is no guarantee that rajpaksha or reset of thieves keep their paws off the funds, the public can't see where these funds will be allocated.

    This is precisely my understanding as well. Whenever the government seeks money from other parties, it looks like an alcoholic person asking for money "to start a new business." You know what happens to the money if you give it to them.
