Yes. Of course. He has a difficult path to go. I hope this good hearted new president will navigate this beautiful country carefully. People really know these circumstances & they will help him & use their energy to develop this country
While the NPP in Sri Lanka was initially associated with leftist ideologies, rooted in Marxist and Leninist thought, it has evolved over time. The party, which includes the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), now positions itself as more of a progressive, democratic movement focusing on issues like social justice, anti-corruption, and good governance. While some of their earlier Marxist-Leninist influences remain, the party has broadened its appeal to a wider section of the population beyond traditional leftist ideologies.
They have pledged to follow liberal economic policies where government do not involve in businesses other than services (education, healthcare and energy)
Please don’t label the NPP as a Marxist Party. NPP is full of professionals and people with no hidden agenda. It’s unbelievable you as a Sri Lankan making these comments. Make unbiased comments.
Anura Kumara isn’t humble. He used to kill people. He never prays to Buddha properly. I saw every single person day that. We demand a new president. Anura Kumara and his friends used to kill. Not only him. His other friends. Anura Kumara said “should we kill people” this is why we want Sajith to be president. As I always say, Sajith Premadasa is the only humble person in this Country!!
I am suprised as to why this news channel invited this guy who doesnt even live in Sri Lanka 😂😂😂. There are much better, political commentators in Sri Lanka. This little young boy has no idea about politics
They ask the wrong people about our new President. This guy and many more live to bring the Marxist piece. They have fellowship all the qualifications but do not know about how much people suffer under these so-called democratic rulers like JR premadasa, Mahinda, Chandrika, Ranil. We love our new President. We will give him more power in General election.
Yes. Of course. He has a difficult path to go. I hope this good hearted new president will navigate this beautiful country carefully. People really know these circumstances & they will help him & use their energy to develop this country
As proud sri lankans we voted Mr.Anura to build our country and to make free from curruptions. He always showed us the truth which we have to be faced and he gave us a proper plan to solve our problems. That was not a political campaign. He said the truth..Very clean man..Love you our president AKD ❤
Yes. Of course. He has a difficult path to go. I hope this good hearted new president will navigate this beautiful country carefully. People really know these circumstances & they will help him & use their energy to develop this country
Being a Srilankan Tamil I am optimistic about the changes, yes the new president may not have the experience even the knowledge to deal the present situation but he has the Human Resources, if he is willing to listen and get into a plan. Please don’t portray ur negativity in international media..
The so-called ‘experienced’ leaders were the ones responsible for this situation. As for knowledge, Anura is not a simple outsider who only had Marxist ideologies, but was a parliamentarian for the past twenty five odd years. He was the minister of agriculture in the coalition govt of Maithreepala and has the credit of turning the loss making Milco around to be a profitable venture. True, his new capacity is challenging, but we have faith in his integrity.
Only Sri Lankans put their own country down in front of the Western world. They were jealous and disappointed that they couldn't corrupt the nation anymore. Sadly, this analyst is proving his agenda very clearly.
😅If all wasten midia talk negative about your choice , you must be doing the right thing. -->Almost all wasten midia talk positive about Argentina choice
@priyankaramarasinghe1146 so how can we call this type of people as professionals? If he doesn't know how to constructively critique, you should know. Just without being biased. Of course, Anura or his party can not bring overnight results as it's been a decade of mess and corruption. If this person have expertise, just support rather than criticise.
This person is the son of the late Ossie Abeygunasekara, who was a minister from Ranil Wickremesinghe’s party, the UNP. He is a strong supporter of Ranil Wickremesinghe and has close connections with the corrupted Rajapaksas and Premadasas. It is unlikely that he will give an unbiased opinion, as he is considered to be part of Sri Lanka’s corrupt political system.
Well done to Julie Yoo, finally a news reporter who doesn't ruin pronouncing the names of the candidates. As a Sri Lankan, that's refreshing to see. Every other foreign news network, including those that have reporters based in Colombo, absolutely butchered their names.
This person, Asanga, is not the right one to represent the country in global media! So pathetic! Sad to see that you have selected him for this. Even before the election, he tried to spread some negative messages. Just because your supporter didn’t win, it doesn’t mean you need to share your pessimistic thoughts. If you really care about the country, please try to support efforts to make our country a better place for innocent people by supporting the president who was elected through a proper election. The majority of Sri Lankans believe that AKD can do it! ❤
Anura who new Sri Lanka president, He is democratic and very flexible person We vote for him against former curruption economic and social. Also against injustice Against mislead law enforcement To keep social security To keep human rights We believe he will keep people expectations If anyone against people power our Sri Lankan people reject those politics. We waiting our time.
As a well established reputed media firm, we never expected this sort of interview. In simple its like you are asking a chicken recipe from a vegan. This guy worked under Sajith Premadasa and his father worked for UNP. He once did an interview on a youtube platform related to Easter attacks, he asked the interviewer to upload the interview once he leave the country. This sort of things will tarnish your reputation
To clarify misconceptions in international media, Anura Kumara Dissanayake, Sri Lanka’s president, is not an extreme Marxist. Although he has roots in the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), his leadership under the National People's Power (NPP) is centered on pragmatic reform, anti-corruption, and restoring economic stability. His administration values democracy, transparency, and fairness, as shown by his commitment to working with global institutions like the IMF to manage the economic crisis. Sri Lanka, under his leadership, remains committed to democratic principles, and does not align with any extreme ideology.
This person is clearly uninformed of the NPP and the political culture in Sri Lanka. Your network should seriousy ask how he was selected for the interview? There are virtually hundreds of better informed and neutral commentators the channel could have selected. This is an abject failiure.
Ask Sri Lankans who live in Sri Lanka, not the journalists, not the experts, just the simple people (and most of us can speak good English, but don't go harass poor 3wheel drivers if they don't understand your frilled and fringed questions) We did not choose a Marxist president. We chose a person who doesn't have corruption in his past. We Sri Lankans chose to overlook instant gratification and move towards truly meaningful, sustainable progress in our country with a team that does not have a corrupted past.
Most in this comment section see Marxism as something bad! Carl Marx was a visionary. Some of His ideas have been taken by many western parties. Namely most of the labour parties in Europe.
Stop this labeling him as Marxist. He is just center left. He is liberal than most far left people. Sri Lanka needs a president like him to wipe out grappling corruption in government sector.
It's a good Q & E session. First thing the world should stop calling NPP a Marxist party/gov. The people who voted for AKD don't expect overnight reforms. Priority thing most people want is the corrupt old regimes of Rajapaksa and Wickramasinghe to be out of any power as soon as possible. Then the long lasting political reforms to be brought in through a transparent process of parliamentary election and to form a stable gov. Also, from day 1, AKD and his party needs to continue talks with IMF and other creditors using the current administration process of central bank, the treasury and debt restructuring team who are not political. Some harsh IMF reforms as high taxes and reduced subsidies on public services needs to be renegotiated with IMF.
Shameful expert, bias, Ranil lover sort of a guy. Can't expect more form a guy like this other than negativity. He clearly does not support or even think about the country. And clearly he is not even in Sri Lanka at least for past five years. A bully
Clearly, you don't know him. He was arrested by RW when came to his mother's funeral, about 2 months back. But I agree with you that his analysis is wrong and I believe that's because he has to protect his employer and where he lives now. If and when AKD initiates the 2019 'Pasku attack', this man is an important figure in giving evidence!
This man has no idea 🫠🤷♀️ We trust our new president ANURA KUMARA DISSANAYAKA!!! 🇱🇰👊🏼🧭❤️ who is strong and simple personality Its time for say bye to the corruption of this rude family oriented government scheme 😅😅😅
Sri Lanka's gov official debt report: 47% - Market borrowings (bonds) - most of which is held by BlackRock (U$A shadow government company) 13% - Asian Development Bank (Japan, but a western own and run bank) 10% - China 10% - Japan 9% - World bank 2% - India 9% - Others
The "waste" want to have c01d w@r ver2.0 . Sincerely hope Sri Lanka able to progress peacefully. Hope he work for the best of his people interest , not any foreign.
He said one of his speeches he invites /would be ready to bring expertise living in other countries (Sri lankans) for the development of this country. No person, even with experienced political background, rescue SL. We hope they will gain the knowledge and excute their duties. This is not easy, but we clearly need a change to this political corruption to an end.
Well u are understanding the whole Sri Lankan community. We are no Indians or Bangaladeshees! We just had wrong ppl on power for a very wrong long period. There is always first time for everything. they are well seasoned politicians n have no experience in corrupting the country for sure as all these political leaders we had so far. We are not optimistic, we are sure of our upcoming bright future. Buckle up world!!!
Asanga presented a fair assessment of political stakes facing new leader,AKD. Srilankan peoples frustration with rising Cost of Living was mainly instrumental in the victory of AKD. I certainly hope he could translate his promises to action and uphold the expectations of the people. Unlike previous Presidents of the country AKD does not belong to a elitist class and understands the plight of less well-off people
Why is this guy given this air time??? His father was a Ranil and Rajapaksha supporter. We dont need such people to comment negatively on our new President and our Country.
We were fed up with corruption which ruined the economy, 75 years suffering and this Sri Lankan guy is not aware of the situation on the ground...AKD is the only sensible leader we could have among the candidates...wait and see how he will work..
Yes. Of course. He has a difficult path to go. I hope this good hearted new president will navigate this beautiful country carefully. People really know these circumstances & they will help him & use their energy to develop this country
Why did you select a wrong person to ask these questions? He is misleading you and whole world through your follwers. As Sri Lankans we have a positive hope on NPP than other corrupted political parties.
Some channels are wrongly claiming that Anura Kumara Dissanayake is still a Marxist leader. In reality, he now leads the NPP, not the JVP. The JVP has evolved from its Marxist-Leninist roots into a progressive, democratic movement focused on social justice, anti-corruption, and good governance. Under Dissanayake's leadership, the focus is on a balanced, middle path combining liberal and socialist values, which is the best way forward for Sri Lanka. So, check your facts before spreading false information.
This person seems to be having a hidden agenda to distort the perception of NPP due to the fact that he is a supporter of Ranil. In reality NPP is neither marxist nor leftist . It is not at all what this person is trying to picture of.He must be trying to create a false impression of AKD and his govenment in the eyes of the people. CNA,Please try to pick the correct person if you truly want to get an unbiased view of the present political stance in Sri lanka.
If all wasten midia talk negative about your choice , you must be doing the right thing. -->😅Almost all wasten midia talk positive about Argentina choice
We people of Sri Lanka have been very optimistic about NPP and our new president. He can face and tacle things which Sri Lanka still staggering under the blow. He has intellectual set of people and hope to rebuild the nation in a positive way..... God bless him ever. We will tolerate things untill he achieved what he has been with his mindset.....
Nice to Asanga in a very good place in USA, rather than being in this puddle, where you were arrested, harresed for something you didn't do plus they rejected your advice related to the easter attack. Really happy to see you in USA dude!!! All the very best
Decades of past political actions have shown that knowledge, skills, and experience alone do not make an ideal leader for the country. While many past leaders achieved personal success through wealth, power, and the prosperity of their close circles, as a nation, we failed. The consequences of their leadership extend beyond the present, affecting future generations of Sri Lankans. AKD possesses a key quality that previous leaders lacked: a genuine love for the country and its people, without any conditions. The NPP, with its resources and AKD's compassionate leadership, has the potential to overcome challenges and transform Sri Lanka into a thriving nation. Asanga is intelligent, analytically sharp, well-educated, and technologically savvy. However, he lacks the same essential quality that was missing in past leaders, which limits his vision for the country and its people.
This critique Ashoka Abeygunawardana is completely wrong . Mr . Anura Kumara Dissanayake was agricultural minister for 14 months in C B K 's govt where he made several institutes profitable which ran at loss and minimized wastage in that ministry . He has experience and ability to run any ministry in this country . He courageous capable man .
this is the right time even India change the party politics! the people who are seriosly worried about this change are the people are benefited from party politics!! and gain personal benefits!!!
People of Sri Lanka are happy to bear austerity measures as long as corruption is eradicated and money is spent on the country and not go to politicians and their henchman’s pockets
It is very unfair to label NPP as a Marxist political party because NPP is a broad political front of various people from all walks of life and the primary/main objective of NPP is to build a better Sri Lanka based on "Advanced True Democracy". NPP is a comprehensive platform for addressing the grievances of Sri Lankans based on justice, equity, fairness, etc. The founding father of modern China, the late Hon. Deng Xiaoping came from the Chinese Communist Party, however, later he transformed China into a global giant, and China is the second-largest economy in the modern world. Yes, AKD could be our Deng Xiaoping, because NPP's manifesto and other policies are based on a “truly progressive, democratic vision”. Sri Lankans hope for such a developed country! NPP is a democratic choice of Sri Lankans, so please let NPP lead this country in the right direction!
Please do your homework before commenting on international media. He represents NPP, not just JVP. NPP is comprised professionals, activists with mixed political perspectives, not just leftist ideologies, with a common aim and goal in mind. That is to rebuild Sri Lanka, the beautiful nation ruined by politicians who were ruling and robbing the country for more than 75 years!
It’s not that Sri Lankans like the leftists. It’s that the person who the people believe in is in leftist party. So there’s no other option rather than voting him. I think that’s the reason for him to became the president who isn’t elected by majority. At the moment we believe in his vision and give our full support. If we see that he’s also not capable of fulfilling our requests we’re looking forward to another solution.
Ceylon when it was independent in 1948 was suppose to be the best experiment of independence. How is it today the country after colonialism go through civil war and now this debt crisis? Wish him the best, and that he can do maths, to balance of payments.
Naturally, the Sri Lankans have lost the trust they had in those parties. And why should you interview this fellow who doesn’t even live in SL? They have better people. And would you trust any US president to bring peace to this world?
CNA and many foreign media outlets are miserable when it comes to selecting "experts" in to their programs. Am not sure if this is unintentional OR deliberate as no country in the region would want SL to be out of the misery we are in, no matter what they say .
Neither Marxists nor Leninist it is all about unity against political and economic corruption. They just take the lead of that roll to make sustainable country which other don't want to.
Some points of Mr. Asanga is wrong here. This comment from Sri Lanka. Try to get some comments from multiple people to find a balanced opinion. Feel like this person is representing past president Ranil
A humble President where Allah bless and protect him
You are really correct . He is a man of the common .

Don't hear that asanga's bullshits. He is not a neutral commenter
We people of Sri Lanka have been very optimistic about NPP and our new president. He can face and tacle things which Sri Lanka still staggering under the blow. He has intellectual set of people and hope to rebuild the nation in a positive way..... God bless him ever. We will tolerate things untill he achieved what he has been with his mindset.....
Nice to Asanga in a very good place in USA, rather than being in this puddle, where you were arrested, harresed for something you didn't do plus they rejected your advice related to the easter attack. Really happy to see you in USA dude!!! All the very best
Decades of past political actions have shown that knowledge, skills, and experience alone do not make an ideal leader for the country. While many past leaders achieved personal success through wealth, power, and the prosperity of their close circles, as a nation, we failed. The consequences of their leadership extend beyond the present, affecting future generations of Sri Lankans.
AKD possesses a key quality that previous leaders lacked: a genuine love for the country and its people, without any conditions. The NPP, with its resources and AKD's compassionate leadership, has the potential to overcome challenges and transform Sri Lanka into a thriving nation.
Asanga is intelligent, analytically sharp, well-educated, and technologically savvy. However, he lacks the same essential quality that was missing in past leaders, which limits his vision for the country and its people.
Great leader❤❤❤❤❤
This critique Ashoka Abeygunawardana is completely wrong . Mr . Anura Kumara Dissanayake was agricultural minister for 14 months in C B K 's govt where he made several institutes profitable which ran at loss and minimized wastage in that ministry . He has experience and ability to run any ministry in this country . He courageous capable man .
AkD ❤❤❤
When you read the comments, two things stand out.
1. AKD is not a marxist.
2. This guy Asanga’s comments are biased. You picked the wrong guy.
This is not an anger , this is a rejection
Asanga Abeyagoonasekera supported Sajith Premadasa openly.
ANURA IS NOT A MARXIST
HE IS A CENTRE LEFT
Asanga has a background working with these failed regimes and his comments are in line with his priorities.
We all are eagerly waiting to live in a country, corruption free and a better place for all to live in
Anura kumara good president ❤🎉
Please be knowledgeable 1st.
this is the right time even India change the party politics! the people who are seriosly worried about this change are the people are benefited from party politics!! and gain personal benefits!!!
People of Sri Lanka are happy to bear austerity measures as long as corruption is eradicated and money is spent on the country and not go to politicians and their henchman’s pockets
Anura kumara Dissanayake will be a great leader for Sri lanka and south east Asia
Thanks for the video clip geopolitics
It is very unfair to label NPP as a Marxist political party because NPP is a broad political front of various people from all walks of life and the primary/main objective of NPP is to build a better Sri Lanka based on "Advanced True Democracy". NPP is a comprehensive platform for addressing the grievances of Sri Lankans based on justice, equity, fairness, etc.
The founding father of modern China, the late Hon. Deng Xiaoping came from the Chinese Communist Party, however, later he transformed China into a global giant, and China is the second-largest economy in the modern world.
Yes, AKD could be our Deng Xiaoping, because NPP's manifesto and other policies are based on a “truly progressive, democratic vision”. Sri Lankans hope for such a developed country! NPP is a democratic choice of Sri Lankans, so please let NPP lead this country in the right direction!
You comments are hugely biased against NPP. Please leave your personal opinions out of it and make an unbiased commentary. NPP is not Marxist leaning.
He is not a Marxist. A left leaning progressive.
Please do your homework before commenting on international media. He represents NPP, not just JVP. NPP is comprised professionals, activists with mixed political perspectives, not just leftist ideologies, with a common aim and goal in mind. That is to rebuild Sri Lanka, the beautiful nation ruined by politicians who were ruling and robbing the country for more than 75 years!
From where do these international news channels find these journalists..
They are only looking at the surface...
This guy supported Sajith Premadasa openly.
Congrates 🎉 our Mr. Prasident AKD
It’s not that Sri Lankans like the leftists. It’s that the person who the people believe in is in leftist party.
So there’s no other option rather than voting him. I think that’s the reason for him to became the president who isn’t elected by majority.
At the moment we believe in his vision and give our full support. If we see that he’s also not capable of fulfilling our requests we’re looking forward to another solution.
This is ridiculous
He is not a Marxist anymore
Ceylon when it was independent in 1948 was suppose to be the best experiment of independence. How is it today the country after colonialism go through civil war and now this debt crisis? Wish him the best, and that he can do maths, to balance of payments.
This sri lanka ❤not a indian colony .and we are waiting not anty indian .but you must respect your small brother,thats all .
Naturally, the Sri Lankans have lost the trust they had in those parties. And why should you interview this fellow who doesn’t even live in SL? They have better people. And would you trust any US president to bring peace to this world?
CNA and many foreign media outlets are miserable when it comes to selecting "experts" in to their programs. Am not sure if this is unintentional OR deliberate as no country in the region would want SL to be out of the misery we are in, no matter what they say .
Why don’t you question this chap on the elections of the US as he is living there?
Anura Kumara, the first president of our country
It's not a clear message. Only 42% voted for AKD. 58% is against him. Only thing made him a winner is the there were three candidates.
Neither Marxists nor Leninist it is all about unity against political and economic corruption. They just take the lead of that roll to make sustainable country which other don't want to.
No longer a Marxist
Most politicians gave promises before they come the power . After they came to the power they forgot the promises.
Some points of Mr. Asanga is wrong here. This comment from Sri Lanka. Try to get some comments from multiple people to find a balanced opinion. Feel like this person is representing past president Ranil
Nimal Bandara NPP GRATE LEADER AKD IN People's PRISIDENT IN SRI Lanka 🇱🇰 JAyawewa ❤️ 💛💚💙🧡💜☀️🌹🌹🌹☀️☀️☀️🌹🌹🌹
