JHU’s members overseas pledge support to the General
Sources from the Sri Lankan embassy in Washington say several active members of the JHU residing in the US have pledged support to General Sarath Fonseka in his endeavors.
Over 20 Sri Lankan doctors, scientists and businessmen who are members of the JHU have met with General Fonseka last Tuesday and have pledged their fullest support and financial backing if he decided to contest at the next Presidential election.
JHU sources meanwhile say that with the news of the possibility of General Fonseka contesting as the common candidate at the next Presidential election has caused a rift within the party. Western Provincial Council Minister Udaya Gammanpila and several monks have said the party needed to support President Mahinda Rajapaksa while Minister Champika Ranawaka and a majority of the monks have said that although steps should be taken to prevent such an eventuality, if the party was faced with such a situation, they needed to back General Fonseka

The people have the right to know the correct position of each political party.
The members of the political parties are more worried about their position in the future. They have no time o think about the country's future.
That is the real irony.
