If Mihin is managed efficiently then it will be a successful airline, there is good demand for budget airlines.

Mihin Air officials should be cautious about the current regional aviation trends in South Asia and not to make any blunders, Air Deccan and Sahara Air lines are already making huge losses.
At a time we are splitting Air India and Indian Air lines have merged in order to enhance its operational capacity.

Can anyone tell me Why Mahinda Rajapakshe wanted to name fully Govt. owned air line ''Mihin Air'' ? Even Adolf Hitler didnīt change the name of the German Airline ''Lufthansa'' to Air Adolfi or ''Aryan Air'' we Sri lankans should be ashamed of not achieving a riped democracy,where head of state is considered as merely a Govt. servant.

Fogot to mention Somawansa Brothals.

-------------------------------------

otheday in a TV political discussion one tamil guy came on air and said
Chandrika Grab peoples land wanted to build presidential palace.

Mahinda Grabs people money and wanted to build underground bunkers for him and his family.

the caller said take a look at Britain were priminister office No-10 downing street is nothing but looks like a ordernary house on the street.
not a palace.
none in the country are talking about priminister palace here.

why the developing country are talking about palace for presidnts?
then how a country could develop?
and he pointed out according to analyst $4.5Billion is only enough for 10 months to pay jambo cabinet ministers salary and perks.

Ajan,
Indian Prime Minister is an Example to Mahinda Rajapakse, Velupille Pirbaharan and Ranil Wickramasinghe.
None of the politicians in the World is qualified as Dr.Manmohan Singh.He is a very humble man.
