Every time the people of the country are staging demonstrations on the streets the country loses the dollars it is entitled to, said Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa, delivering a special statement today (11).
Addressing the nation in response to the instability befallen the country, the Prime Minister noted that these protests are an obstacle to save the country and therefore, all should be working with patience and courage.
Many of the current crises had spawned through the global crisis of Covid-19, Rajapaksa went on, adding that the government of Sri Lanka still has the capacity to save the country from every crisis befallen it.
He went on saying that the government understands the difficulties faced by the people and that their objections are fair. Continuous agitations, however, only worsens the crisis, he added.
