Ranveer bro 🫡 Im a Sri Lankan and a big fan of your work. (Especially Jaishankar Sirs podcast) And I gladly say that you have done more justice to our country and our culture than most Sri Lankan leaders. Every question you asked were really important and true, but the answers were not all genuinely true I'm afraid. Although the one thing we can all agree upon is that us Sri Lankans are now more resilient and woken up more than we were ever before. We are finally less dependent on the Govt and politicians. Not all skillful youths have left the country yet. We will stay and fight till we bounce back! Thanks again for shedding this light on us ☀️🇮🇳❤️
Rajapaksha is currently most hated word in Sri lanka. I am from a totally unmixed sinhalese family and everyone hate the name equally irrespective of ethnicity.
Brother ❤❤❤, Rajapakse family and most of nayakas are lineage from madurai nayakar dynasty ,they aren't pure and true Sinhalese , they are the one to torture Tamils and Sinhalese and create fights and play a game ,they converted themselves to Buddhists and changed their language which was faking ,and they pretend to be Sinhalese.. that's why Rajapakse inspite of being Buddhist everyyear he goes to India to worship tirupathi in andra Pradesh , please expose this and tell this truth to save srilanka ...
Unfortunately Mr Milinda himself is very much part of the Rajapakse regime. It's easy for him to over simplify the issues in Sri Lanka. These are all smoke and mirrors. The root cause of all the issues is the regime and their nationalistic policy, identity politics and corruption. The family is only to blame.
Maxing out your country's credit card brings you lots of smiles from fair weather friends, also helping themselves, and also fair weather voters. "Organic" was a farce for any sensible, clear thinking, informed person. Which brings up another point: Where were all the smart people who should have been ringing alerm bells about an obvious future financial trainwreck. A massive oil storage terminal in a strategic location falling into decrepitude over the decades was a huge red flag saying, "any foreign, especially oil related investment, is not welcome here".
Don't ask about Rajapaksa... see he scared already. Singapore never said what to be like Sri lanka😆...Singapore advise to learn from Singapore on how to manage multicultural society in harmony.
He's talking about 80% salary', when the Rajapaksa family created extra job opening where you need one person. Now there's 10 just to do 1 single work. And yet it's not done on time.
Isnt it the desire to establish a Singhalese power structure and one which position only a certain type of Singhalese a root cause ? Also - the reason why Sri Lanka was left with good balance sheet was because the British was to turn Sri Lanka into an administrative centre for its larger holdings in South Asia. So, it was not higher spending but the economic loss and opportunity cost from pushing a new power structure following a similar governance structure of divide and conquer like the British.
Why didn't you ask about srilankan politics siding with china and risking indias geopolitical interests.....knowing the fact that they r into Chinese debt trap.
There is no bad luck. Mahinda Rajapakse took billions of dollars invested on projects where there was no returns. Biggest mistake was Gotabaya appointing his brother Basil as the main person to controlled the economy. This guy is not a economist neither have the the experience of making financial decisions on behalf of the country. No Govt. can wash their hands when a country goes bankrupt. Sri Lankan politicians are famous to give excuses and avoid responsibility. No investor will invest when there is a corrupt govt. with several cases of corruption and slip through the system. There is no freedom of speech. The country is run with an iron fist. People will come forward sooner or later if the Govt does not have a free and fair elections soon. This guy is affiliated to pathfinder.
Malinda is a great leader. this bad media and ignorance and hateful speech lead people to hate him. he is actually one of the best leader Sri Lanka ever had so far.

Asking a Rajapaksha lap dog wouldn’t get you a genuine answer.

not everyone hates them. this media and hate speeches and ignorance speeches like you lead them to hate them. Malinda actually a good leader.
@@peace3552 rajapakse is nayakar? do you have proof. Sure late kandyan kings have partial nayakkar ascendents.
@@mindbyte7021 watch kandi nayakar documentary
100^% TRUE and AGREED .
Unfortunately Mr Milinda himself is very much part of the Rajapakse regime.

nothing is unfortunate. Mahinda is a good leader.
Total nonsense from a politician. This interview is total waste.

this guy is a rajapaksha sympathiser
20% was fd rates in Sri Lanka some years back...indeed you were spending too much for people and people did become incompetent this way..
This man is HIGHLY corrupt . He is Milinda Moragoda .
He's talking about 80% salary', when the Rajapaksa family created extra job opening where you need one person. Now there's 10 just to do 1 single work. And yet it's not done on time.
This guy is a beig rime wheeler dealer appointed bt Gotabaya 😂😂
You can’t really ask a honest opinion about Rajapakse from a fan of his :) it has to be a neutral person
He can’t criticize Rajapaksha , because he was a one of Member of Rajapaksha Government and cabinet .. 😅😅😅

The root cause is Tamil Nazism that came from TN.
LKY in his biography wrote very poorly on SL, He wrote about how he was fed stale food in an SL govt guest house
What a joke 🤣 asking this henchmen of rajapaksha about ragapakshas......😂
This guy is a crook too 😂😂 asking him is thé worst thing you can do man 😂😂
You have to assume everyone is paid off by this family.
Why didn't you ask about srilankan politics siding with china and risking indias geopolitical interests.....knowing the fact that they r into Chinese debt trap.
You should have not invited him. What answer you expect asking Rajpakse are you corrupt 😢
