That degenerate miscreant Donald Gaminitillake (of the now dysfunctional VKS blog) should not be allowed to replace him as the head of the ICTA.

Donald Gaminitillake is really a beast. Don't forget, he called Prof Samaranayake as "Jara Mahalla" in his blogs. Donald shouldn't be given any place any in SL. Donald buruwa, come forward and tell us what you tried to do. You are the most wanted criminal in Sinhala histrory.
