An election something from me, about the hypocrisy, illiteracy and degeneracy of Lanka's elites & their mouthpieces, all on display (*gestures around wildly at #lka twitter*) with the anti-NPP Red Scare they have, quite needlessly, created for themselves. ft.lk/opinion/Elite-…

The people of Sri Lanka vote for progressive change, rejecting austerity and demanding a changed approach to the IMF and bondholders, as well as to economic strategies for development. A time of challenges, but also hope!

Sri Lanka’s new president Anura Kumara Dissanayake could now review all details of the negotiations with IMF and make a case for renegotiation. The wellbeing of people takes precedence over interests of external creditors. CBSL Brad Setser Theo Maret youtu.be/5kEAKJiX6_Q?si…
