Mahinda will have to accept his share of acts of stupidity.. but the problem is people talk as if Mahinda is our first President... and definitely the rulers before cannot be vindicated at all..Premadasa may have done some work, I agree.. but that period was the time Sri Lanka actually embraced open economy... so people are bound to see development in the country.. but don't forget the "Dark" period when Premadasa ruled... Burning tires, JVP problems, White Van culture was more popular back then, there were thugs using JVP as cover to settle their personal vendettas (JVP is not innocent either <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rolleyes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Rolleyes    :rolleyes:" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" />)... Media was barred and prominent journalists were murdered back then too (like Richard de Zoysa) I don't know whether you remember these or you too young to remember.. but there was such a period..But you have to remember every ruler of this country had good and bad points, expect for maybe Chandrika was good for nothing <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/lol.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="LOL    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> (in my opinion wasted a whole decade coming into scene from by gaining pity votes)What everyone did and will be doing for the foreseeable future will be to "monkey patch" the problem loot the country and runaway! <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/dull.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dull:" title="Dull    :dull:" data-shortname=":dull:" /> Until unless people put country first.. will that ever happen? <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/rofl.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rofl:" title="ROFL    :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" /></blockquote>
