Sri Lanka

A political faction cancels a rail project citing,

1. Costs
2. Not having enough stops
3. Noise etc.

Then proposes a worse project or more highways. Does this sound familiar? I urge you to watch this video because there are many parallels between this Canadian tale and the now cancelled Colombo light rail project. There maybe lessons we can learn from Canada.

Newsfirst reports on recent incident of antibiotic reactions. Is the the result of Keheliya Rambukwella's attempt at removing standards for importing medicine? Does anyone know what happened to that scandal?

https://cebcare.ceb.lk/gensum/details shows Sri Lanka's electricity generation for the past 24 hours. For example on yesterday, 42% of power came from renewables and 58% came from non-renewable sources.

BaconReader is dead so I'm probably not using Reddit much again. Expecting that at least some redditors on r/SriLanka will be moving out too. Which server are most of them going to?

I am once again baffled how these people end up in the parliament.

I think this is from the Cold War era but I could be wrong.
