I am not suffering with Japanese mania or any other mania but if you want to live peacefully with ur vehicle you better not to go for India,China or Korean brands.I do not say each and every vehicle from those countries give troubles to you.There may be exceptions but most of the times they give real troubles.

Yep. Thanks,

I kw this incident but machan i hope these are normal in any country.

Think what will happan to Japan and china factories.. Much bigger impact than this.

Every where people want more and more leaves but only the people who works more will be successful. I Personally know some business families who works more than 18 hours per day. ( They are billionaires.) Any way.

And AJ , I really appreciate your point And i always wanted thes type of arguments to be built among us. U got a good point this time and let me/us think on it.

Thanks

What Aj says will be correct if Gov. Or the policy makers dont take an action in 3 to 5 years time. Sri lanka currently get more and more FDI to hotel sector as u said. What Gov. should do is slowly encourage other sectors as well.

We need more and more businesses to be started and if not this will be just an hotel destination.

Additional port , Road dev. will give the required infrastructure for businesses and much needed Bantamweight ( one of the poorest district ) will be look after by MR. So there are plenty of bare lands to be occupied.

lets wait and see.

1) Now You have to spend more than 3m to get a Japanese Car
you can buy Panda with all the options at 1.6m around

After Sales
2) you get 100,000km warranty
3) you get 3year warranty
4) and they replace what ever abnormal part immediately
5) at Kalaniya service center you get excellent service
6) at kalaniya service center they have the facility of 100cars to repair and service
7) and they use modern technology to serve the customers
and if your car stall where ever car carrier come and lift to the service center free of charge (withing the warranty time)

pls note that this is not a promotion
this will help you to get an idea about a car and specially who are suffering from tax and Japanese mania

How about fuel consumption for panda, such a small car with gears manual transmission? at least 18km/1L?

(Japan or Korea are not big markets either they export worldwide. Also Japan fought with the world before 1950s. They were that powerful from the beginning. They were not Sri Lanka before 1950s.)

Sri Lanka will be a tropical travel destination like the Caribbeans. The foreigners are investing in the property, hotels, travel and leisure destination. Check out all the high rises planned in Colombo. They are all residential properties. (But none of the law abiding citizens of Sri Lanka can afford buy even a room in those apartments.) So it's more of consumption than production. Food, medicines and everything are going up in prices steadily you'll need a foreign salary live in this tourist destination. So you, Sri Lankans, can all be beach boys, waiters, cooks, janitors... May be I'll give a tip when I visit. Don't think about Japan, Korea think about Caribbeans islands. That's what Sri Lanka is.

Dude u seem to have a big EGO man.. Let me think... U educated from SL and went abroad now cursing SL cuz SL hasn't got the luxury u can enjoy there Twisted Evil

So being beach boys, waiters, cooks, janitors are bad in SL but doing such in abroad is cool??

We also give tips to the ppl who carry the above services when we visit abroad know Wink

..

Ah that's becuz ppl live in SL doesnt know what a person does abroad...

These Aj diaspora refugee types have hidden agendas. Born in Sri-Lanka refugees who try to undermine the country of their birth.

We should pity Bj, spending so much time gathering info on Sri-Lanking and then writing long winded rants. It seems that asylum centers in Aussie provide PCs and internet access for the likes of Bj.

Maybe Bj should start to worry about this http://adaderana.lk/news.php?nid=20497

Run and hide Aj before they come and deport you.

As per what I heard from a relative who bought this, Panda was not great on fuel like a Maruti but reasonable. Around 10-12 km/l in city limits mosly. Its 1.3L engine for a small car right?

But the interior looks really and comfortable than a Maruti or Alto.

How abt Geely MX7 @ 22 laks? A nice looking car with elegant interior Wink

The only problem with these Micro cars was those only come with manual trans rabbit
