Great to hear this. We are all waiting till the biggest crooks like Sajin, Namal and other Rajapkasa cronies are sent to jail. Everybody knows what they did, but no real action yet. Present President is mostly responsible for saving the crooks as he is only interested in building up the SLFP. Best of Luck Sarath.
