Training is important to become a politician.

I think it is manilal fernando.....
He is too fat. In another 10 years, he will have diabetes and cholesterol problems. Probably, too much stress. So, eats a lot. |

News related to the subject topic.....
Football s media director blows his top
The media director of the Football Federation of the Sri Lanka Rukmal Perera yesterday abused photographers in foul language after inviting them to cover the commissioning of a new venue by Defense Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa at Slave Island.
In a high-handed act unbecoming of his post, Perera ordered the photographers out of their vantage point saying their desire for close-up shots of the ceremony endangered his position in the Football Federation.
One photographer however gave the jittery media director a bellyful and left.
The commissioning of the new venue coincided with the visit of Asian Football Confederation president Mohamed Bim Hammam.

I had seen him 15 years ago. He was like that fat.
Probably a qualification to be a politician. |
