Whatever mistakes the Rajapaksa brothers did during their tenure, one must agree and give Full Credit to Mahinda & Gotabhaya for eliminating the Tamil Tiger Terrorism from the Island without forgetting General Fonseka.

Yes the Corruption was rife and a few made millions whilst the poor became poorer.

The Right Wing leaning towards USA & EU led by the Ranil Wickramasinghe tenure, did not make the matters any better.

In my opinion, Sri Lanka as an ex.British colony perrhaps may follow the example set by Singapore which gained independence in 9 August 1965 whilst Ceylon gained independence in February 4, 1948.

When you look at Singapore and Sri Lanka, a blind can see the difference between the two Islands, which are pretty obvious. Both Islands were led by the British educated Prime Ministers.

Will the new President Anura Kumara Dissanayake make a difference during his tenure can only start with the Elimination of Bribery & Corruption, as done in Singapore.

Left or Right leaning but Remove the Corrupt Practices by setting examples of punishing the corrupt Politicians, Civil Servants, the Police, and Public Sector with Rigorous Prison Terms.  

Name & Shame the Legally judged Corrupt Rich by getting them to clean the streets!
