Principle of Main Parties Is “Flight Instead Of Fight”: Pubudu Jayagoda

 

Frontline Socialist Party (FSP) Propaganda Secretary Pubudu Jayagoda stated that all major parties are promoting a “flight instead of fight” theory by speaking of a world market economy.

Speaking at a meeting in Avissawella, Jayagoda said that rural people are given the message that money can be earned in the cities. Urban people are told that one has to emigrate, he pointed out.

All three parties are saying the same thing in different words, Jayagoda said, adding that they were now promoting an idea of increasing Sri Lanka’s portion in the world market.

Pointing out that the world market was in recession from 2008, Jayagoda said that capturing a larger portion of market in recession was an empty promise. An economy with more participation by the people was needed to solve the problems of the country, he argued.
