People should also be held accountable for electing corrupt, failed representatives to Parliament (VIDEO)

Date:

Should the country continue to move forward with the current situation, there will be a severe famine, economic collapse and Sri Lanka will be branded as a bankrupted nation, warned Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MP Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka, speaking to reporters on his appearance before the Special Presidential Commission of Inquiry established at the Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMICH) to investigate, report and table recommendations on the service done by the Anti-Corruption Committee and its Secretariat appointed by the previous Good Governance Regime after the January 08, 2015 Election today (23).

On one hand, the people should also be held accountable for the country being dragged into such a state, the Field Marshal noted, reminding that it is the people who elect such failed and corrupt politicians to Parliament over and over again.

Fonseka further noted that leaders like those of Singapore and Malaysia must emerge in Sri Lanka, should the country’s political culture be changed.
