The corrupt Yahapalana government did all wrong that could be done to our proud nation.

It brought humiliation and disgrace only internally and internationally.

From co sponsoring the UNHCR resolution to MCC agreement it had only one intention and that was to remain in power whatever the cost to the country.

As leaders they were incompetent and clueless and did not know what to do in the hour of need.

From the independence for over sixty years our National anthem was sung only in Sinhala.

Even during the war over thirty years there was no split.

However the yahapalanites thought it proper to sing it in two languages to create unnecessary confusion.

Confusion it did just the 19th amendment to the constitution.

It is not on any principle but knee jerk reaction at the time for the support of TNA.

Now it is revealed how TNA Sampanthan is to receive luxury official residence with services in spite of not being the opposition leader anymore.

And what did the UNP get from all that pampering to TNA at the end?

A 13+ demands that were worse than that of the murderer Prabakaran.

India is the great example for one nation one national anthem.

Our president has shown courage and vision to stand on principles.
