Lunch is often a mundane affair, but sometimes, it opens windows into realities we seldom consider. Today, while enjoying a meal at a restaurant, a young server approached to check if we needed anything else. Polite and eager to please, she hesitated when I asked her how she felt about her job. Pressing further, I inquired about her salary. Though reluctant at first, she eventually disclosed it—a meagre amount. However, what followed struck a chord in my conscience. She revealed a troubling truth: diners sometimes leave without paying their bills. The loss isn’t shouldered by the establishment but passed on to the servers, deducted from their already modest earnings. Bottled water theft, in particular, posed a significant issue. Last month alone, the total unpaid cost exceeded Rs. 50,000, divided among 14 servers. Imagine the indignity of working long hours, catering to customers with a smile, only to have your wages docked because of someone else’s dishonesty. What drives such behavio...

Grant Them the Majority.

Granting them a majority in the upcoming general election (which seems unlikely given the current sentiment in the country) is important. Otherwise, they might continue to blame a lack of majority for their inability to implement policies, just as they currently blame past administrations. It's important to remember that they played a role in establishing three of the most corrupt periods in our parliament's history. If they do receive a majority, it will be interesting to see how they handle their own perceived successes. එළැඹෙන මහ මැතිවරණයේදී (රටේ දැනට පවතින මනෝභාවය අනුව එය කළ නොහැකි බව පෙනේ) ඔවුන්ට බහුතරයක් ලබා දීම වැදගත් ය.   එසේ නොවුවහොත්, ඔවුන් දැනට පවතින පරිපාලනයට දොස් පවරනවා සේම, ප්‍රතිපත්ති ක්‍රියාත්මක කිරීමට ඇති නොහැකියාව ගැන බහුතරයේ හිඟය දිගටම දොස් පැවරිය හැකිය.   අපේ පාර්ලිමේන්තු ඉතිහාසයේ දූෂිතම කාල පරිච්ඡේද තුනක් ස්ථාපිත කිරීමට ඔවුන් කාර්යභාරයක් ඉටු කළ බව මතක තබා ගැනීම වැදගත්ය.   ඔවුන් බහුතරයක් ලබා ගන්නේ නම්, ඔවුන් තමන්ගේම අවබෝධ කරගත් සාර්ථකත්වයන් හසුරුවන්නේ ...

Printing Money - Benefits & Consequences

Image
While quantitative easing and replacing old notes are common reasons for printing money, there are other factors that influence a country's decision to print currency: ප්‍රමාණාත්මක ලිහිල් කිරීම සහ පැරණි නෝට්ටු ප්‍රතිස්ථාපනය කිරීම මුදල් මුද්‍රණය සඳහා පොදු හේතු වන අතර , වෙනත් සාධක රටක මුදල් මුද්‍රණය කිරීමට ගත් තීරණයට බලපායි : Economic Stimulus: During recessions or economic downturns, governments may print money to inject liquidity into the economy, stimulating spending and investment. This can help jumpstart economic growth. ආර්ථික උත්තේජක : අවපාත හෝ ආර්ථික පසුබෑම් වලදී , රජයන් ආර්ථිකයට ද්‍රවශීලතාවය එන්නත් කිරීමට මුදල් මුද්‍රණය කළ හැකිය , වියදම් සහ ආයෝජන උත්තේජනය කරයි . මෙය ආර්ථික වර්ධන වේගය ඉහළ නැංවීමට උපකාරී වේ .
