Mahinda‘s Health advice to Mangala

It so happened when Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa, Ministers Mangala Samaraweera and Malik Samarawickrama met recently at the funeral house of late Gandhini Rajapaksa, sister of former President Rajapaksa. Their discussion centred on their health issues with a twist.

Rajapaksa and Mangala started chatting with each other, while Samarawickrama was sitting between them. “You know Malik, once Mangala and his web gang put me on a wheel chair,” Rajapaksa has said. “Oh that is nothing, Mr. Former President. We will all be confined to wheel chairs soon. We have reached that age in life,” Mangala has replied.

In response Mahinda said, “I’m not joking. Look at you Mangala. You look like a pig. Consume less liquor and start exercising like me. Otherwise you will never know when your heart will stop,”

Mangala responded by saying, yes yes Malik. Our former President drinks liquor every day but not in a habit of drinking. Between meals he is vegetarian. And goes for jogging in his vehicle”, said Mangala.

 While Samaraweera and Samarawickrama shared a laugh over this, Mahinda has said, “Now see, its Malik who is at his best. He does not get angry. But he will carry fire not through water but even petrol. You must tell your boss to take some medical advice from Malik.”
