“What’s the point of all this hoax?

Is it the chicken and the egg time or are just yolks?”

(Monty Python’s The Meaning of life)

( October 12, 2014, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) The signs proliferate. After the announcement of an early budget with a pared down debate came the reduction in gas prices. The President himself proclaimed the reduction, as if it was his ‘personal’ gift to the consumers. 

There will have to be an election soon, so that the regime can jack up prices again.
