all these illeagal things happened when our rajano ruled the country. he turned a blind eye to all these. shame. turning blind eye to all these also a way of bribing to buy influential sectors of the country. when will we have a leader who can stop all these dirty things including mayya brothers rice mafia if they have any? it is a disgusting to hear a full executive head of state who ruled country for 9 years cry about a sarong clad mudalalis sand mafia or rice mafia. from whom he expect ruling for the country? who has the responsibility to stop all these bad illegal things.
we must change this culture. law and order should be maintained for all. this is an opportunity to bring necessary constitutional changes.

The stories in these poems were doing rounds earlier also. I think they are true to some extent. However, all those corrupt practices may have been done with the tacit approval of the big boss. That does not mean that they are not corrupt practices. They are, but we are now faced with a situation in selecting the best out of worst.

Colombo Port City will be scrapped: Ranil - Page 2 Empty We will replace Port City with Western Province Metropolis – Ranil

Thu Dec 25, 2014 7:50 am
By Skandha Gunasekara and Shaahidah Riza

Ceylon Finance Today: Opposition and UNP Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe said Tuesday that a government under him as Prime Minister would halt the port city which had been envisioned by the Mahinda Rajapaksa Government and replace it with a much larger 'Mega-polis' that would encompass the Western Province in its entirety.

Addressing the business forum, 'Lets Unite' held at Cinnamon Lakeside, Wickremesinghe alongside and Common Presidential Candidate Maithripala Sirisena addressed corporate leaders and senior business officials on the policies of a possible Sirisena Government would adopt.

The establishment of a 'Megapolis' was first suggested in 2002-2003, and the Port City was a small part of it. The 'Megapolis' project would transform the entire Western Province into a fully developed modern city."

He went on to say that the Port City project would not be stopped but halted temporarily.
"We haven't completely scrapped the Port City project. However, if we come to power we will first take into account the environmental impact report, as well as a feasibility study before we go further with the project." Wickremesinghe observed.

Wickremesinghe stressed, that environmental impact of any project was of vital importance when considering its implementation and that a Sirisena Government would take global warming into serious consideration. "We are looking into sustainable development. Global warming is a grave issue and we are seriously considering its impact on our economy. We will go green. The world is pivoting towards sustainable energy and development."

The Leader of the Opposition went on to say that feasibility of any project proposed by a government headed by Sirisena, would be taken into account citing the heavy debts incurred by the nation for the construction of the Hambantota Harbour and the Mattala Airport.

"Feasibility of any project will be of paramount importance. The country has billions in debt as a result of projects taken up without proper consideration," he noted.

Its a wise move by Ranil because such mega projects definitly have sever impact on many things such as sever loss of sand diposits in the continential shelf, coral reefs, wave pattern, sea errotion, fisheries, stability of coastal habitats including lagoons, livelihood of riparian users, diversity of life forms etc. etc.,

?Who wants to have a concrete jungle at the expense of all these natural resources we enjoy at present.

The reason they halted was what ?

if they halt temporarily..., better start it now for some to get employment..If they halted it for environmental imapct reasons, stop it forever and stomach it up

Confusing with words stop and halt
