President ready to talk with Mangala, Sripathi

President Mahinda Rajapaksa has reportedly told his confidants that he is prepared to talk with ousted Ministers Mangala Samaraweera and Sripathi Sooriayarachchi provided they withdraw statements, that the President said `grossly distorted the human rights situation in Sri Lanka and undermined national security`.
A source close to the President told the Daily Mirror last evening that the President had said he was prepared to forget what the two former Ministers had said about him and his two brothers if they `corrected themselves on what they said about human rights and security`.
Mr Samaraweera recently said somebody was being abducted in Sri Lanka every eight hours while Mr. Sooriyarachchi said the security forces fought a fake war in the East.
On the President`s side, the doors to reconciliation are still open, said the source.
`It is the opinion of the President that the two ministers had played politics with the country`s image by making mischievous statements on national security and crucial issues like the human rights situation` the source said.
`The President wonders why none of these issues were raised while the two were in the Cabinet and why they went public only after being sacked` he said..
`While the ministers were using the media to attack President Rajapaksa, even a couple of days before the sacking, the President made five calls to Mr. Samaraweera inviting him for talks to iron out any differences, but the former minister failed to exploit the opportunity, ` the source said.

Motta Ralayooo -
All you got to do is share the Loot, instead of keeping it with ONLY your family. Let others also enjoy the benefits of the plunder and everything will be fine.... :) |

President want to silence M&S before they spill more beans. As it is Briton has got a wake-up call before long Japan and EU are going to wake-up.
It would be personally cheap for the President to buy these two guys off and keep increasing the family wealth.
Bottom line no foreign aid: no room for scamming. |

I think the President was not listening to Mangala or Mangala started speaking in English after all these foreign trips.
He said he lost his position because he pointed out human rights violations by GOSL. President should have also known that he could not lie like Kadirghama with a straight face. Edited By - DVLADV - 20 Feb 2007 00:41:52 GMT |

Another Six UNP Members of Parliament will join the Mahinda Rajapaksa Govt. next week.....by the way none of these are members of the Rajapaksa family.
This is another blow to the Ranil/CBK/Mangala/Sripathi/TNA unholy alliance. Edited By - gamiya - 20 Feb 2007 06:47:41 GMT |

| I think our president should not forget the past as he is here today because of JVP/Mangala and few of other people.I do remember how Mangala and JVP used to work.I believe that they are HIS true brothers and they will never betray HIM at any cost. I WOULD APPRECIATE IF THE PRESIDENT CAN THINK OF THIS SITUATION AND CAN RE UNITE.Mr. Mangala you are too responsible for our country so please think about it and come back as we do not want to break the party.We love you Mangala,we love the President and we love JVP as they are the only people who love our country.This time is not for you'll to fight and break please be united to solve this problem once and for all. |

President ready to talk with Mangala, Sripathi..
So, now MR. is ready to bring the cats, inside the bag..
Oh.what a foolish President...

President can get some good advise, from Condalizza Rice..
Before making any decision.. |
