(Lanka-e-News -26.Sep.2015, 11.00PM) The 70 th session of the United Nations general assembly commenced at the UN headquarters in New York yesterday midnight Sri Lanka (SL) time.
This conference is attended by leaders of States and representatives of over 150 countries of the world .SL’s President Maithripala Sirisena ,the foreign minister , the minister of justice, the minister of skills development and vocational training (participation of this minister whose portfolio has no relevance to this conference is a joke deserving a hearty laugh !), the SL ambassador to America and State representatives.
Daham Sirisena the young immature son of the president also was one of the SL representatives at this event along with others (vide photograph).
Interestingly , Daham Sirisena (so called) who is supposed to have completed the higher education, and has not even reached the age of 25 years holds no official post in the government . Hence , the only qualification Daham has to be a representative of the government is the Asian primitive qualification - son of his excellency the ‘King’ , which in the modern world is considered as a disqualification meriting nothing except disdain and detestation because it savors of most reprehensible unalloyed nepotism ( it is significant to note that people elected him on the 8 th of January as president solely and wholly because he loudly said, he will never be a “king” nor wear a ‘crown’ and fantasize himself as a King)
Therefore when the president had vowed most solemnly and loudly before the people he will not be an imaginary ‘King’ or wear a ‘crown’ , who made him a clown now ?
Who made young immature Daham Sirisena a representative and attend the UN assembly ? How did that happen and was it at public expense or were the expenses met out of his personal funds ? If it was out of his personal funds , how did he collect the funds when he has no proper job? Or were the expenses included in president’s entourage expenditure or from his private funds ? If Daham represented the governmment at this assembly what is the benefit he reaped for the country ? The Sri Lankans all over the world of the civilized age are entitled to know the answers to these questions.
Let us not forget, the Sri Lankans through the rainbow revolution of 8 th January threw out Mahinda Rajapakse’s despotic and family rule lock , stock and barrel. It is also undisputable that although Mahinda the despot selfishly plundered the country wholesale for and on behalf of his family , never did the country see his son going to Geneva and occupying a seat at the assembly despite the raging nepotism and cronyism during his reign .
In the present climate under Mathripala , even before the people could heave a sigh of relief that Rajapakse nepotism was got rid of ,nepotism in its worst abominable form seems to have already taken root outrageously at the very place and with the person it was least expected.
No matter what , let anybody who is trying to play fast and loose be warned , the triumphant rainbow revolution of the people which commenced on 8 th january cannot be reversed , and will not be reversed. Good governance shall flourish and those selfishly opposing it overtly or covertly shall perish. Buffaloes shall be tethered or sent back from where they came .
People should hence resist complacency and be alert against evil trends and evil leaders trying to take the people down the garden path while engaging in lip service, and doing disservice to the nation as a whole

This is what we implicitly wish. everyone wanted Maithri and afterwards they don't care who is in his government. They think people who were considered rogues in previous regime, gets holy water poured all over them by his excellency the king maithree and now they are all good boys.
So the king acts accordingly, He gives his brother a chairmanship, daughter a post and son an unofficial diplomatic appointment. We never vote a persom out or vote someone in with a collective group in mind, We wanted the viallain mahinda out and hero Maithree in.. Their team and collective effort is of no consequence.

To say that I am disappointed at this turn of events is an understatement, we worked hard to get him to power but never expected this type of behavior, MS is totally responsible for the health condition of the great Ven Sobitha who is just after a by pass surgery, the Ven Thero just could not take this from a person who was expected to put things right, I was present at most of the discussion we had before the January 8th election and was a witness to the various promises MS made in the presence of Rajitha. It is simply shameful to say the least. Thankfully the PMs reputation is still intact and I hope that he will step in and advise MS to act with honour.

Hello ENews editor, Please do not insult Sri Lanka President's immature decision to take along his son with the tax payers' money to New York. Alexander Lukshenko's 11 year old son Kolya who attented the same U.N. conference too got to sit in the front row with his Big Daddy who of course, contrary to wearing the kapati suit, was in full suit.
