Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Okay, Sir.
¶ 02 This Government is giving Rs. 966 billion in relief to billionaire businessmen, while continuing to tax the poor.
¶ 03 Hon. President, the people still have faith in you. But some Ministers and MPs who sit in the cesspit do not know how to consume the honey you brought. Therefore, please even conduct a tuition class for them, to stop them from misusing your name. With that request, I conclude.
¶ 04 Thank you very much.
