MPs not fit to work in a kitchen attempting to compile a code of ethics for journalists is a joke

August 2, 2016 by lanka666 Leave a Comment

Those who are not fit to work in Parliament’s kitchen, notwithstanding being elected as MPs, talking about preparing a code of ethics for journalists is nothing but a joke says the convener of Voice Against Corruption (VAC) JVP Member of North – Central Provincial Council Wasantha Samarasinghe.

Speaking at a ceremony held at Anuradhapura Mr. Samarasinghe said the present government that promised masses before the general election that a code of ethics would be compiled for all people’s representatives in the country has conveniently forgotten that and is preparing to compile a code of ethics for journalists in an attempt to subdue them.

He said recently a Deputy Minister of the government was seen, via media, pretending to commit suicide by hanging on to a ceiling fan while his henchmen were supporting him by holding his feet so that the noose around his neck would not get tightened.  It is such jokers, bar owners and other criminals who have been elected to Parliament who are attempting to compile a code of ethics for journalists said Mr. Samarasinghe adding that before a code of ethics is compiled for journalists a code of ethics should be compiled for Parliamentarians.

Govt. Swindles money from salaries of Civil Security personnel

August 2, 2016 by lanka666 Leave a Comment

It is reported that a vicious manoeuvre is being carried out to deduct Rs.15,000 from the monthly salaries of officers serving under Civil Security Department.

Normally a Civil Security officer receives a monthly salary of Rs.30,000 and they have been ordered to pay Rs.15,000 to the Senior Security Coordinator stating the money would be used for various projects.

Despite officers are told that funds would be utilized for ‘brick projects’, various cultivation projects etc., the officers do not receive any benefits and they do not know where the projects are being carried out.

Currently, Civil Security personnel have been deployed for work in various companies and are being subjected to various inconveniences say reports. They have been deployed as labourers in construction companies and the companies, without any consideration for their health, get them to continuously work for 12 hours while the food made available to these soldiers is not suitable for human consumption say reports.
