The decay of education in Sri Lanka

Sri Lankan education system is run by (mob) three super-stars! 

1) Minister of higher education is a former students’ union leader who betrayed all the student activists of the country. Both the Minister and his son were drooling over the documentary about Dr. Neville Fernando’s Private Medical College (PMC), SAITM, which was produced by my friend’s Media Company and used to call them on every morning and evening until it was ready! He wrecked the system to safeguard Neville’s almighty dollar with the certain hope of laundering his money which he has already done. 



2) Minister of education, doesn't even know how to hold a meeting, talk to people and he neglects important meetings. He has narcolepsy and sleeps while giving away the awards at ceremonies. He is a former tuition master and taking cognizance of his own past he closed the deal of the age-old bill which was proposed to prohibit tuition classes on Sundays. 

3) Finally the deputy Minister, (a veteran member of my own club) the owner of the largest International school network of the country, (even though he is resigned from his designations) that will be a conglomerate in the near future with new additions of his son’s business ventures.



Are we Sri Lankans so desperate to appoint a man with a conflict of interest as an authority of education? Or is it a part of the master plan of Rajapaksa Regime in creating a bogged down public education system?
