"The SJB is not a typical opposition party; it is a political movement that challenges traditional political norms." "The country is in the midst of a deep economic crisis, and it is crucial that we find a way to recover. We are closely monitoring whether the government will choose the successful paths taken by other countries or continue down a road of failure. We will support the government if it does what is right." 👉 https://island.lk/sheer-number-of-non-voters-disconcerting-sjb/amp/ #ImthiazBakeerMarkar #sjb #srilanka
