The tragic #Horana elders' home fire that claimed 12 elderly lives is a horrific stain on the nation. When the #SriLanka government fails to enforce basic building safety codes for vulnerable citizens, it is guilty of institutional neglect. @roelraymond https://t.co/yEQGtgfCUp

The #Padukka factory explosion isn't just an accident; it is a damning indictment of the #SriLanka government’s complete failure to enforce industrial safety standards and protect the working class. Such cases are repeating far too often. @nimilamalee https://t.co/yEQGtgf54R

A small country like #Srilanka must have a robust prevention of organised crimes law to save our children and the economy from the transnational criminal organisations. We don’t want our streets being flooded with drugs and money laundering. @NPPSLOfficial @anuradisanayake https://t.co/SU0SIaYaoW

Over 338 fire calls in #Colombo alone by mid-October, yet #SriLanka administration still operates without a comprehensive Fire Safety Act. Bureaucrats sit on their hands while commercial buildings turn into death traps. @RehanJayawick https://t.co/ezTSmR4Y5P
