Samagi Jana Balavegaya (SJB) General Secretary MP Ranjith Madduma Bandara said that the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), which celebrated the May Day by commemorating
Che Guevara, Karl Marx and Lenin, has said that they will go to America and gather all the people from the Leftist camp and the Socialist camp.
He mentioned this while participating in a press conference held yesterday (31) at the Opposition Leader’s office.
He also said that Anura Kumara Dissanayake has been criticising American expansionism and has gone to America and said these stories while standing under the American flag. Indian expansionism is one of Wijeweera’s five classes in 1971. 7,000 people were killed by the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna personnel when the 13th Amendment peace agreement was signed with India in 88-89. Anura Kumara Dissanayake said that we need to build an industrial economy instead of the tea, rubber, coconut, economy. It shows the level of his economic knowledge. Sri Lanka had an export economy of 80 percent from tea, rubber and coconuts. Industrial economy had only 20 percent. He also said that during the Ranasinghe Premadasa era, industrial zones were created and industrial income increased to 80 percent and the income from tea, rubber and coconut became 20 percent, he said further.
