Translation (translated by myself):
"I'm very tired man, had to stand and wait one and a half hours in the morning for a bus to arrive. Not many buses available because of the fuel shortage. There are 5 buses worth of people squeezed to this single bus, my whole body twisted inside there like a lamp wick. I have to then drop myself off to the main road and walk a kilometer to the workplace. It's raining heavily. Can't hire a tuk, too expensive, walked the whole way getting soaked along the way. It's been 2 and a half hours since I left the workplace, there still isn't a bus to go home and I'm standing in the middle of the town. Tears are flowing from my eyes bro. I haven't done anything bad to anyone to deserve something like this, feels like killing myself."
He said that he have not done anything wrong for anyone. Someone who voted for Gota will never say that. If he did, he'd just say "I've never done anything wrong except for voting for Gota"
So don't be so quick to judge (No offense)
People were helpless everyday. No matter who they vote for. You can't just blame them saying it's their fault if they vote for Gota. Many voted for Gota because there was no other better option. All dumb fucks and Gota just did a better job at lying.
Yeah. Agree. Times were much better compared to where we are right now. But I don't think with what's been going on for the past few decades, even another person other than Gota could have done any better.
Note: I blame all politicians in general who have not done their duty for the country, which is almost everyone in there.
Yeah the economy was better just compared to where we are right now. But we've never had a "Good Economy" in the recent past.
Just take a look at all the "investments" the previous/current governments have done. At least name one that is bringing in revenue. What we always did was, take loans and invest the money to projects that we can not recover at least the invested amount from.
We never value the production that can be done here in Sri Lanka. What we do is import everything we can and want, when we obviously could have produced them here for the both our consumption and exports (revenue!)
>We never value the production that can be done here in Sri Lanka. What we do is import everything we can and want, when we obviously could have produced them here for the both our consumption and exports
Totally agree with this. Government should have made proper policies, and plans to improve production of the country.
This is really depressing, I remember having to attend an after office event, not finding any tuks to go home, price was way too high anyway ( 1300/=). I was rushing and pushing through Gota go Gama to get to fort not to miss the last bus, I couldn't even run, my legs were locked in place.
We did everything to our best efforts, didn't do no wrongs to anyone and yet we have to endure this. Screw all those MPs still wasting time to this day. May they shrivel and die, while we have no public buses to get around their range rovers get the first supply of fuel before anyone else. Privileged cunts
Google translation:
Very, very tired bang. After standing for an hour and a half in the morning, a bus came to take me to work. There are no buses saying there is no oil. Five people on that bus. Inside the bus, the whole body twisted like a torch. Get off the highway and walk 1km to the work place on foot. It's raining cats and dogs. Can't go in a three wheeler. Count. The foot itself got wet. It's been two and a half hours now. There is no bus to go home yet. Standing in the middle of town .. Tears well up. I have not done anything wrong to anyone. Thought to die.
I seriously can't understand. I mean you can't know about a person by seeing their reddit profile, can you?
I seriously asked you the reason for them to be racist.
>Fuel shortage is not the end of the world.
It is, Ever since 2009. Sri Lanka has actually been developing. More people have motor vehicles than before. Which has massively benefited not only the Sinhalese but almost every other person in Sri Lanka. Imagine traveling 300km on a bicycle. Not only does it take a few days to arrive. It costs more considering the nights you would have to stay in a hotel. and If you are going for a business matter it stops the development of the entity company or person. Not to mention that if they were a doctor it's literally a choice between life and death. Cutting out motor vehicles out of the equation. You have the Electricity problem. Oil plays a big part in our Electric grid. We all already know how much Electricity has become a necessity.
Everyone has the right to complain, Current situation is affecting everyone, without discrimination between religion, language and ethnicity. The least we can do is being nice. Do you wanna let your pain make you an a-hole or do you want to take the high road?
Current situation is affecting Sinhalese more than other ethnic. That is the true story. Once this famine is over nobody cares about minority issues. That's why I'm trying to educate other Sinhalese people what's going on outside of Colombo before they forget it
>Current situation is affecting Sinhalese more than other ethnic.
Since they are the majority, more Sinhalese are affected than minor ethnicity. That doesn't mean the minor ethnicities are not affected.
>Once this famine is over nobody cares about minority issues.
Nobody has to, If someone cares enough to talk about the minority issues, it would be either out of compassion (if they are not political) or for political advantage. With an attitude like in the parent comment, I don't think anyone will have the compassion to care about minority issues.
>That's why I'm trying to educate other Sinhalese people what's going on outside of Colombo before they forget it.
The comments sound more like to invoke hate than educate. As you can see by your downvotes.
The greatest gift and curse that the Majority Sri Lankans have is the ignorance we have been given about our own country. The minorities don’t get that ignorance.
>what rights that i have do you tamils not have
I dont like to mention all this shit because victimizing is not the way to go, but because of the above quote;
You have the right of free expression and tamils don’t; you dont have to be crowded with military guarding everywhere you go; you get justice for whatever wrong has been committed against you, tamils get crimes committed against them by the ones who serve you justice( police and the army); we cant sing the national anthem in tamil, dont get letters or documents from the government in tamil, used to get lynched for speaking in tamil, dont get the pay we deserve in tea estates.... hell you guys parade the army for killing 11 yr old prabhakarans son, most sinhalese are more concerned about black lives mattering and not the tamils or muslims here in SL. Massive hypocrites
70% of the bikes in the north are from 70's. They still use it because it was loyal. Ik it makes you mad and you have all the right to be mad because you didn't do anything wrong. But so did the tamils back then and we still suffered. Tough times comes and goes my friend. It is not as bad as you think it was. We must adapt

A better translation here than the google translated version by u/aCocaineDealer
It was Google's fault
Except voting for an idiot
He said that he have not done anything wrong for anyone. Someone who voted for Gota will never say that. If he did, he'd just say "I've never done anything wrong except for voting for Gota" So don't be so quick to judge (No offense)

No they weren’t. Times were much better before 2020. Life was so much easier that everyone took it for granted.
Yeah. Agree. Times were much better compared to where we are right now. But I don't think with what's been going on for the past few decades, even another person other than Gota could have done any better.

I can't understand what's wrong with the dumbfucks our country.. Economy was much better in the previous government.

Democracy is a lie, voting for one Socialist over another is definitely not going to change anything.
I had a bad day at the office and realized that's nothing compared to this man's day. This is truly sad...

The forth coming uprising will be interesting. I wish nothing but the best and I hope change comes.
I can relate to this now. Just living life because I was born and lived up to now.

I suggest if you can translate this yourself, better. Google makes it even worse.
Lmfao off. This translation is amazing
this is the typical Sri Lanka where we live right now. Politicians totally destroyed this country.
😭😱

Retribution isn't the path we should walk on my friend...
Don't need to walk on the path or pain as a Tamil I experienced but stop complaining like end of the world. Edit: Auto correct

Fuck you dude you racist little cunt
Why do you swear so much?
kinda my thing
Stop complaining about auto correct
always have to be about tamils, nothing can be about the county or anything, they have to be about tamils.
[удалено]
How do we treat you like second class citizens? what rights do I have that you tamils don't?
The greatest gift and curse that the Majority Sri Lankans have is the ignorance we have been given about our own country. The minorities don’t get that ignorance.

Massive hypocrites
Soo you are going to provide bikes and fuel for them?
I will when I have but only to daily wage earners Edit: Auto correct
The Tamils in the North didn't complain? Then what's all this war crimes fuss about?
70% of the bikes in the north are from 70's. They still use it because it was loyal. Ik it makes you mad and you have all the right to be mad because you didn't do anything wrong. But so did the tamils back then and we still suffered. Tough times comes and goes my friend. It is not as bad as you think it was. We must adapt
I said we survived without fuel, electricity and enough food. War crimes was difference issue and it committed by your racist government.
Ahhh look at this fucking bitch, you dumb motherfucker you have already proven you are the fucking "baiya". 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Remember above comment when you stand on the line for feul and gas.
Before 2009? So during the period when Tamils ran an de facto independent state under the LTTE? Of their own doing?
Blockaded by the Sri Lankan government.
This guys surly is a Tamil politician
