India's help for Sri Lanka in its moment of need will never be forgotten. Thank you @DrSJaishankar and @narendramodi. We've had sooooo much song and dance for $3B from IMF (and still going) while India forked out $4.5B in no time to keep us going in 2022. And it wasn't at all

Namal there’s no point in apologising: fix it. We need energy in the country. Talk to your dad and uncles and re-route the money to make that happen. If you guys can’t fix it then get out of the way please. This is the worst its been managed in our independent history.
The only viable person I see to lead Sri Lanka as PM from the current parliament is @MASumanthiran. He’s the humblest, smartest, cleanest and overall best politician we have and is a gentleman to boot. He can lead a real national government. Yes he’s Tamil, but so what?
Huh. @RajapaksaNamal now speaking in parliament says that political parties are driving the protests. You may WANT to think that Namal, but for ONCE everyone is unified against rotten governance from top to bottom. All 225 must be out of the picture in governing Sri Lanka.
The #aragalaya has won and #GotaGoHome has been achieved. It is now time for people to stand down and let our constitutional system do its thing. We can't do more good by further protests and violence NOW. Let's please not risk anarchy!
Take time to protest! It is now or never. medium.com/@sanjiva.weera… I posted the email I sent to the WSO2 @wso2 team encouraging everyone to have their voices heard in this crucial moment in time for Sri Lanka.
I’m thrilled to announce that @wso2 raised a $90M investment from @GoldmanSachs. More info in a blog we published: wso2.com/blogs/thesourc… We look forward to furthering our current products and the new cloud offerings of @ChoreoDev and @asgardeo with this funding!

First piece of FANTASTIC news out of the public protests in Sri Lanka: Nandalal Weerasinghe is the new governor of @CBSL! He was recommended for it when Dr. Indrajith Coomaraswamy finished his term. Just IMAGINE if he had been appointed to start with! DON’T STOP PROTESTING!

Mahinda Rajapakse @PresRajapaksa resigning doesn’t absolve you from the crime you committed today with your supporters who triggered violence. You and your family including @RajapaksaNamal WILL pay for this. @GotabayaR this is you 1983 moment. Don’t FAIL the country any more!

While I was on the ICTA board I helped write a report on this project which said we can build a more modern solution to railway ticketing locally at a fraction of the cost. Tragic that we lost this opp to go all mobile and paper/card-less. Smart cards are dead old now.

August 4th is WSO2's birthday. Happy 17th @wso2!
WSO2 @wso2 will be working from home for the remainder of 2020 at least. Our offices will have opt-in availability (where legally allowed; like LK) but no one has to come in. We’re committing to this for the rest of the year so people can choose where they live etc..
