If mud was thrown at President's speeches it was 'White' vans then - Maithripala
Participating in a new water project in MahaOya on the morning of the 19th instant,the President had this to say:-
" In order to develop this country like money and resources are needed it is necessary for the people to be given freedom and democracy.This government has the pave the way for it.
We during this period for criticizing the government have not sent white vans.By quoting to my speech made last week at the foundation institute various talks had been made.I know about them.I
wish to ask those who criticized whether there were any persons who could have done so before the 08th January 2015.Were these words and language language spoken then? In that case within 24 hours they would have got white vans. Before I became President no one could take a telephone call as the calls were tapped. Now people had freedom.Those people have forgotten.I could remember that even a provincial council member do not speak to another member.A Minister does not speak to another Minister over the phone.We had such a period..That period was what we ended.When they ask what have you done my answer to them is I have given them the freedom.Freedom is more important than money.If the protest walks, clamours and what is shown in the internet were made they know the reply they would get.In this contest I am very happy as the freedom is been happily possessed by the people.Those who attack me are those who have not studied the facts.It is because they have become one sided.
