Sri Lanka is in middle of an unprecedented economic crisis.
Colombo has no money, no food, no essential medicines or fuel.
Food prices have gone up by at least 30%. Who is to be blamed for this?
Gotabaya Rajapaksa or China?
Palki Sharma tells you.

It’s disgusting to think that it’s gotten to the point where individuals have more money than entire nations. Sri Lanka needs 20 billion dollars, bill gates has 10 times that, but he won’t budge, neither will any other “charitable billionaire”. Charity for the rich is a publicity stunt, and publicity stunts aren’t worth anything when no one cares enough to watch.
Rajapaksha famly has money.
Parliamentary expenses are very very high.
Wuhan Virus Savage….
Wuhan virus is so racist..can be more responsible while conveying the news
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man with no investment and I'll tell you how long it takes to fail. The investment creates a safe haven for the future. With the right investment choi noce that has at least a minimum risk of 2% and with expert advice, both profits and interest are 100% guaranteed.
What other news agency still refers to Covid-19 as the "Wuhan Virus" ?
Kudos , WION ! Stay Strong !
Just sell the islands to New Zealand & Fiji.
(ÍNDIA government should be very careful with WION. WION IS AMERICA PUPPET) ..
Dollar Appreciates, then Sri Lanka Goes Bankrupt
I don't get it. Our country has over 13million external debt. Should we be afraid/worried?
Let’s not forget this is a country that went through a tsunami that killed millions and destroyed millions of homes and a civil war that had to be ended with aggression by the government. People are unbelievably strong minded and will recover from anything. No doubt.
At the end of the 1st quarter of 2021, the United States public debt-to-GDP ratio was 127.5%.
Sri lanka had 111% so why don't we bankrupt USA
Why do we still believe in the broken petro dollar
Lesson to the Indian State ministers – Kejrilal Thapadwala, they will give freebies now and will default on back of Central Government.

This food crisis was caused by the world economic forum that forced them to reduce Nitrogen fertilizer use. They are doing the same thing in Canada, Australia and the Netherlands. They want to kill us! We must reject this nonsense!
I saw testimony of how economy helped a man make -$50,000 weekly Profit I tried now am also sharing my testimony with over,$10,000 from the company thanks for the good did he has done for me for this short period of time.
Sorry friends
Easy, don't buy what you can't afford to pay back, you will sleep better and the economic news won't bother you one bit..
Get help from thriving countries on how to run Sri Lanka. Instill their management practices end to end upto and including government. Enough is enough.
The same citizen was happy when this family was brutal with Tamil Srilankans. They didn't care about the economy or wealth when they were shown a common enemy and leaders were fighting with them.
Hate make them so dumb that they don't even care how badly corrupt there leader is.
Now they are protesting. You are responsible for the situation. A wolf eats a sheep anyway, it's the sheep's fault to enjoy seeing other sheep getting slaughtered.
அதிமுகவுல இருக்குற இந்த குப்பைக எல்லாம் வெளிநாட்டுக்காரவங்களுக்கு திட்டம் போட்டு வெளிநாட்டு வேற போகுங்களா அங்கையே தோண்டி பொதைக்க சொன்னதுக்கு நீங்க ok சொன்னேங்க thank you ☺️👍🏻
It’s because of fascist globalist pushing ESG scores. And forced y’all to embrace nutty communist bs.
I’m sorry that this has happened to you guys. I would ask Elon musk, Jeff bezos, and Saudi royalty for help. But Elon musk seems like he actually cares. Idk about 20 billion. But maybe a couple. Anything is possible. Tweet to him with pictures of hungry kids saying please send help we need 20 billion to restart our economy anything will help. Also press the United States government. They’re working on our 2023 fiscal year budget. We tossed Ukraine 60 billion to fight a war like it was nothing. Our military gets 700 billion a year. America can afford to help y’all out. I mean Switzerland, China, America, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia should be able to come up with 20 billion with no strings attached. It’s their fault that covid and this obsession over ESG scores are a thing which doomed your country.
Soon India will be in this State.
Rajapaksha family 😡😡
Yup this corruption result…
"Sri Lanka's response to this disaster has been disastrous."
Gosh, I love this woman.
Let's ally ourselves with china, they said.
What's the worst that could happen, they said.
