SJB alleges Trinco oil farms sold to obtain USD

30 Dec 2021

A protest was staged by the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) against the sale of the Trincomalee Oil Farms to India, where several members voiced their opinions. The protest was staged opposite the Ministry of Finance yesterday (29). "If they can, let them sell the oil tank farm, let them sell 40% of the Yugadanavi plant to a monopoly, If they can let them give away 13 acres of land in the port. The trade Union collective will do everything it can to stop these from happening," said SJB MP Ashok Abeysinghe. Additionally, MP Harshana Rajakaruna demanded that the Government stop selling the resources of Sri Lanka. "We wish to tell the Government that we will rally against the sale of resources with the people," said Rajakaruna. Meanwhile, SJB MP S M Marikkar said that suspicions have arisen that the oil tank farms are sold to India to obtain more dollars. "People are standing in queue from 2am for fuel, whereas the Prime Minister travels to Thirupathi in a private Jet. The Central Bank Governor has said that dollars are flowing into the country, but he has not said from where. We have suspicions that they are trying to sell the Trinco oil farms to get more dollars," concluded Marikkar.
