I am akalanka De Mel and I am an engineer This is the 3rd time I am writing to this web site. These are my suggestions for the issues that we see in the ground level ISSUE 01. Please note that addressing to the Low income Low IQ people has been an issue. They have not being addressed well. Although the NPPs' establishing system is to bring them up. The message has not being conveyed properly to them. The middle class families has a good potential to vote for NPP and if a issue arise they can access internet and fix it. If not their respective middle class society will answer them in favor of NPP (since majority of the middle class is swinging towards NPP). Since from the outside what we can see is the campaign has been effective for middle class more than lower income people. Suggestions 01. Since the low income low IQ society rely on feel good factor and how a party could rally them. We Need to emotionally bring them up. And firmly address them giving them hope. I believe this is the time to bring the emotional factor up. 2. Allocating seperate people who can make a change to the specific people and bring as their main target to address that society (Example Samantha vidyarathna & Dr Harini) Why samantha Vidyarathna - part of low income people like to be addressed by one of their fellow members which they feel equal. And samantha has that ability to rally the crowd hinting the early days of Wimal weerawansha. So does Tilvin Silva, which he can end a meeting with a massive hype. I believe those people are good tools. NEED TO USE THEM MORE, NEED TO BRING SAMANTHA OUT OF BADULLA AND TO THE MAIN MEETINGS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AS A MAIN SPEAKER. Why Dr Harini - Same as the above, the flip side of it is the low income people like when a high class person speaks on behalf of them. They feel empowered by it. Like Royalty speaks on behalf of them. The picture of harini is like that for most of them. And need to keep hitting their emotional side continuosly. I hope someone looks in to this and work for this from top to bottom while we are holding from the bottom. Vote is a Vote. Lets cover up the medicine in suger coated toffees and give them to the society in need of treatment. In this stage. Thank you!

May I know whether your agriculture policy define the Long term and short term agric policies? Also, my view is provide a defined period of time for the growers to grow whatever the food items that we import for the consumption in Sri Lanka and ban of import thereafter. It opens the eyes of farmers to cultivate all bare lands to fulfill the country's requirement contineously and it saves foreign exchange on import of duch items
I am the Undergraduate of University of Morotuwa.I want to know about your university education policy .Have you suggested to build new universities .I suggest to solve the issues in current universities firstly.Do not miss universities students.They can help to build our country.I have a one request from AKD.please destroy or reduce compitative educational system in our country.
Based on my understanding, the NPP's emphasis on promoting locally produced goods to reduce imports appears promising but comes with significant drawbacks that may outweigh its benefits. For instance, the current livestock development policy aims to cut down on imported dairy products. However with already high taxes on imports, the cost of dairy products in Sri Lanka is among the highest in the region, making these essential foods less accessible to low income groups, potentially leading to malnutrition due to insufficient protein intake. By focusing on promoting local production there is a risk of further driving up prices making these products even less affordable for the poor. This suggests that your policies might be more oriented toward benefiting producers rather than consumers, which could be a concern in other sectors as well. I'm interested in knowing how you intend to address this challenge. While a straightforward answer might be to lower the cost of locally produced goods, this approach may not be practical given the lack of economies of scale and lack of openness to competition which can hinder efficiency improvements. Also providing incentives to farmers or producers is not a sustainable long term strategy. Hence I would appreciate hearing a more practical perspective on the strategies you plan to implement to overcome this challenge.
