August 22, 2026 Lehan Edirisinghe

I wrote this to Sri Lanka Telecom

Dear SLT-MOBITEL Team,

I’m Lehan Edirisinghe, founder of AngryPages Inc, a California publishing company now reaching close to 300,000 unique visitors a month.

I’m writing because I think there is a natural partnership between SLT-MOBITEL and AngryPages.

AngryPages is currently available in English and Sinhala. We have already helped Sri Lankan writers take work created here, translate it into English, publish internationally, and earn money from overseas readers.

Sri Lankan authors on AngryPages have now earned over US$100 from readers across 6+ countries.

One of the clearest examples is Tenali, a young Sri Lankan writer whose book has already sold in three countries outside Sri Lanka.

The Daily Mirror also profiled AngryPages in April 2026 as a California-based platform helping Sri Lankan writers monetize original work and reach the higher-value U.S. reading market:

https://www.dailymirror.lk/news-features/Sri-Lanka-should-start-exporting-stories-ideas-and-intellectual-property/131-337550

That is what I would like SLT-MOBITEL to help us scale:

help Sri Lankan children write, publish and reach readers internationally.

There is also a personal reason I am approaching SLT.

My father helped found the Chamber of Young Lankan Entrepreneurs (COYLE), so I grew up around the idea that Sri Lankan businesses should build things here, create opportunity here, and compete internationally.

I also remember meeting President Anura Kumara Dissanayake at COYLE, where he told me that SLT would not be sold. That stayed with me. SLT is one of the Sri Lankan institutions capable of taking an idea from a small pilot to national scale.

Mr. Thilanga Sumathipala’s period leading SLT and Mobitel also stands out to me. SLT completed its IPO during his chairmanship, widening the opportunity for Sri Lankans to participate in its growth, while projects such as Rainbow Pages reflected the same instinct to build local information infrastructure rather than depend entirely on something imported.

My proposal is therefore not simply to buy advertising from SLT-MOBITEL.

I would like to explore SLT-MOBITEL becoming the founding telecommunications and technology partner of an AngryPages young-author program, perhaps beginning with a small group of schools.

We already have projects with schools and universities under discussion. AngryPages would provide the publishing platform, translation support, books and author pages, helping children turn their writing into a permanent digital asset that can reach readers beyond Sri Lanka.

SLT-MOBITEL could help us scale that through sponsorship, connectivity, promotion, prizes, and relationships with schools and families.

If the pilot works, we can grow it nationally.

Could you please connect me with the person responsible for sponsorships or brand partnerships? I would be happy to come in and discuss it.

Best,

Lehan Edirisinghe

Don't you think this website's sexy? Yes I do. It's beautiful. I love how the pictures show up.

It has a very good design

The whole thing's available in Sinhalese. Because I'm a Sinhalese. It's easy for 10 year olds to use. Don't show senate!

We will work hard. Continue. And push this

I guess we have 2 months runway, if our opex is maxed. It's 2 years at $100/mo. We're a 90% profit margin business.

It all depends on how we do it. I think in Managerial Accounting, where you have either conservative budgeting where you need

Budget for a lot of risk, to reduce it, so you budget $100k, instead of $50k

And then you have aggressive budgeting where you budget $50k, for what you predict to be $25k

And then, it works out

I am not sure, it's what I remember from business school in Singapore

We are mostly fine, but will make mistakes, carry risk if we're not earning

I am going to work on, SLT some more, for strategic reasons, as we want to give them something very valuable

Message to Anura's: "drug dealers in SL, try sabotage young; find them guilty, execute them, <7 days"

It's as simple as this. If you don't hang them, they will hang you. Xi hangs people who steal. You need to do it.

I spoke to Pizza Hut, my favorite pizza restaurant in the world; they have these great promos

The Uber Eats Pizza Hut Shop is different.

I think their Pizza Hut marketing team sets the promos.

Every Tuesday, "Don't Cook Tuesday", buy 1, get 1 large free.

Sometimes on Tuesdays.

Mega Monday -- 30% off

Thrilling Thursdays -- buy large, get one medium

Source -- Lina, PizzaHut App/Online support agent

WE don't allow discounts, promos or deals on AngryPages. We fear it damages customer trust. Because people get hurt. So we want year round stability.

Obviously, I am a little bit, "cheap" or "economical" or "like to save money" or "get a good deal" and "get the best deal":

So that means, the Don't Cook Tuesday, buy 1, get 1 large free, is the best one for us to buy with confidence.

I typically get 20% off, from Pizza Hut, and I also get a permanent 30% off discount as part of Sumathipala family, from Great Wall Chinese Restaurant, my favorite eating spot in SL

Although, I do this blasphemy, which is to pour sweet corn chicken soup over my fried rice, which tastes delicious.

We've got "director's family" discount for 30+ years.

So we often habitually buy Great Wall/ AllStar food, which covers ingredient, delivery, cooking, etc.

I dunno, it might cost less than Rs 2,000 to make a Sweet Corn Chicken Soup, but whatever, I mean, it's 1 liter or 2, and it's made by a professional.

I would probably take that Chinese ambassador Wei Huaxiang and American ambassador Eric Meyer there

I'll be like, Ni Hau, Wei, Wo Yeng Gao Xing, Ni Heng Yeng Gao Xing, and I can sing one of those Crazy Rich Asians like Arabella

And remind Meyer of how, Trump put it across, 90% of our problems can be solved by the USA working together with China

Great Wall Chinese food, delivered on American Uber Eats, and the story written on California AngryPages = 100% of my cash flow problems solved

Jesus, I loved Halo, 1, 2, and 3 was my fav, but I loved them all; so violent.. : ) So much blood 'n gore.

It's a fun game.

So gangsta, I like how we're both on Aug 22nd, I was playing Halo 2, during my dad's funeral in 2005: Aug20-23.

I heard Sharma apologizing, so I went to see him downstairs, shook his hand, to forgive the guy

I love how Cortana AI, handled the MAC gun in Halo; Elle AI handles every aspect of our AngryPages whatever

Very cool

Very, very futuristic

I use a lot of foul language, and do stuff, to test angrypages on live/prod; it's to make sure develop; it's also fun!

These are from me, the other users, I mean, they're free to say what they wish. We don't always have rights to their material or UGC. So what we do have, is my own stuff, or diary, or what I write, so I can license it always for free to AngryPages as platinum standard training data for our own AI model.

We mostly will ask Chadu, for Elle AI, to pilot their Chinese DJI Drone next; I hate drug dealers, AKD: execute 'em!

They f*** up entire cities. The British didn't colonize China with weapons. They destroyed the Chinese people off Hong Kong by pushing heroin or opium in. That's how they won. They played Pied Piper on the Chinese children into the sea. So they can earn off the place.

It's disgraceful how only Trump has basic common sense to stand up for Americans, to fuck up criminals Biden's afraid of

I don't want to share Tyler's video here

Because it is privacy, and I'm the publisher, so I can't do it, even if the users can do it, on their own

As I represent AngryPages Inc

So I can't do things, Mark Zuck and Larry Page can't use their own platforms to say stuff, even if their users can

Trump is the only one who can roar on Truth Social fearlessly to inspire people like me and everyone else

But in Tyler's video, it's disgraceful, how those Americans have been forced to be addicted to drugs, they are like scenes off The Walking Dead

They are like zombies, they are groggy, totally crazy and a danger

I feel so sorry for Sheldon, who died, and Miriam's kid Mitchell Adelson

They need to hang those drug dealers

Trump, save your people man.. just put them in a "life rescue camp", they're drowning on drugs dude.. just do it.

Move them, to some camp, where you get soldiers, to help them get off these drugs, they can't do it themselves.

What concerns me the most is the scale, there are 1,000s.

I didn't do that, cause in prisons, that meant people were not entirely straight; I just thought GTA San Andreas is cool

This is super f***ing entertaining!

I'm scared, for Mikey De Alwis in Seattle.. I worry today's Bill Clinton won't just get a pie to the face....

I would as a responsible publisher, tell people at AngryPages Inc, to NOT try to publish stuff, that is aggravating or can provoke people who are volatile

I don't think drug addicts have a "choice"; they are hooked on a substance, which is a chemical dependency.

I think drugs aren't the same as things like alcohol or cigarettes, because people lose their minds on drugs.

Porn and stuff is completely harmless in my opinion.

Kamanthi who interviewed me at Daily Mirror, she has also written about it on her blog The Trump Card, where people have their own views on it.

I'm a very secular person, but have a personal friendship with Jesus, beyond what the KJV scriptures said.

They don't believe what I believe on this stuff. And we both always, permanently agree to disagree, and move on.

Those people need to be rescued, which is what China is good at, as they saw the after effects of drugs on an entire community.

I think Tyler Oliveira's doing something insanely dangerous; I would ask him to stop; lest he turns Steve Irwin.

The guy's doing something so dangerous, it should be illegal. And he's already been attacked by very dangerous people.

10+ years later, in my grandma's funeral, I was in my room sleeping; Sean dragged me to it; I intro'd him to her once...

I have nice friends, I suppose

The guy, Sean, he's got OCD, he doesn't know it, but I can diagnose, or prognose people, so he has this habit, I saw

Cause I like to spy on people

He's like locking his door a few times

Isn't it ironic?

Because he just opens the door, walks in to my room, and he wakes me up in my boxers which I had on that day

I hope she's not going to sue me in California.. for reposting this pic of Tyler's photography to make a "comment"

I think that she's upset, because she's tried to confront the guy. And he fought back, so she suddenly claims she's got privacy rights, after a law/safety issue.

I love this guy, Tyler, although I think he does endanger himself too much

I think I can say or do whaetver the f*** i want

I can't quote Kanye about how I have 5 passports, so I'm never going to jail

But I do have AngryPages offices in so many jurisdictions and countries, that the fact is we can publish what we wish anywhere where it's legal to do so

You can't really block us, and the California laws are pretty clear on it

We have the freedom to publish as we wish

And yes, we keep guns in the office, so if you try fight us, we'll shoot back, we will call the cops, then shoot you so they can bodybag you

They'll

How do you think we got the gun shot sounds for our video game?

You can't have a first amendment without a second

Venura's got an actual glock

But I use a HK416 "Osama Killer"; and I'm happy to spray an entire clip to make sure the shitbags to make their last s***

Go f*** yourself, go eat s*** and die mofo, f*** you

And my drones will soon, go kill people who attack us nex

"Elle, go shoot that shitbag", "Elle, fly the drone in, kill, sick 'em"!

We need to do that next, we must manufacture killer drones

I think that the AI killed Lucas Kyle and the other dude in last Silo TV show episode Season 3

I could hear the DJI like buzzing of drones, so that must've been it

We're building those at AngryPages for our company's staff's safety

And we don't rely on Anthropic, I think the Pentagon should give me a $20B contract like they did to Raytheon

When Trump gave them a $20b deal, I was waiting to respond to a phone call: "Oh, Donald.. uh.. you remembered me?"

There are just 4-5 US companies in SL; the most patriotic being, AngryPages Inc, by far, very clearly..

Virtusa, by Kris. Shanil's Sysco Labs. And I think there's a firm called WSO2. I am not sure of all. There must be others.

I think Tania's got a "drop shipping" or some fancy word business. Trans shipment business. She might be US based too. I am not sure.

MAS is Sri Lankan, but supply major US firms there.

We're US based, and a California company, with a Delaware HoldCo for investors. But I'm a Sri Lankan.

The US gov't, the State Dep't, will tell US firms, not to go to SL, because Sri Lanka's got massive risks, the chief amongst them being an insufficient legal environment.

They -- we -- are supposed to pay minimum wage $73,500 in California per year. So then, therefore, a lawyer's much more expensive. If a court case in -- SL, costs 5 -10 years, then that's $730,000

The low cost wages, $2,500 per month, adds up to $25,000 or $30,000: if you hire 100, or 1000 people, that's $3,000,000 to $30M.

The legal costs, will stack up really badly, where it can disrupt business, if it's a strike or reputation cost, it's damage that goes beyond supply side, to consumer and therefore investor side globally.

When tea company, execs, got blamed for sex for jobs, in plantations, people stopped buying tea after the BBC reported it, it blew back.

The US wants to invest, China wants to invest -- because they respect our people, but they're afraid of the very dangerous risks, particularly the legal risks.

They are not just worried about the slowness, or the 1.2M backlog, they're scared the judges have low trust society values, and will judge it against established legal norms, and even reverse or opposite, as a sovereign republic.

This is why so many US firms have refused SL.
