Haha

I appreciate leaders who can make me laugh

I am like 45 kilograms. I am severely underweight. However, I am running to be the president. I have chosen, out of respect, to give my defense department portfolio to Probo auntie, Shemara, Sarath, Shavendra and friends. I would still see myself as commander in chief of the armed forces, and technically the police commander as well. I have likewise entrusted the home department to Sangeetha aunty and Lalith uncle. I tend to call people by their first name out of familiarity; they are my parents' friends. According to Sirisena's constitution I am 31 and the requirement is 35, which I question, but I remain committed to my path.

I am very proud of my ethnicity, my community and our country. I love my country, Sri Lanka, and I have confidence in our people, which is why I have taken these steps with determination. Our society enjoys popular shows like Game of Thrones and Squid Game, and we should not be defined by simplistic stereotypes that paint us as only rural or underdeveloped. I feel frustrated that we face serious economic and social challenges, and that frustration drives me every day because I want my country to develop and for all our people to advance together.

When I'm president, I will work so anyone can take part. That includes people who use wheelchairs or who have limb differences; I believe in respecting and supporting people with different abilities. I also believe children will gain inner confidence not only from personal achievements but from teamwork, shared effort and skill-building. We will aim not to exclude anyone who is willing to serve or contribute. The most crucial quality in any service member is their spirit and commitment. That is why the legacy and spirit of a devoted person can endure for generations. Many feel that people like Shavendra will be remembered long into the future.

We try to be realistic about physical differences, but in operational and community roles everyone can play a valuable part. Women are essential to sustaining resilient communities, and we want diversity in our teams — for example, aiming for at least one woman in every four-person unit. Conscription, if introduced, would apply to all genders. When people go through such service, their routines may change, and many will gain fitness and confidence. My hope is that shared service will build civic pride, resilience and collective progress for Sri Lanka.

Good luck on your trip!

I like China; they reported a $1 trillion trade surplus

Up from about $800m or so

I observe a strong work ethic, considerable skill, ███████████████████████████████

I also noticed measures to restrain imports

Xi Jinping is held in very high regard by many people in China

Their model of state capitalism has supported significant economic development under the current political system

This contrasts with the more social-market or social-democratic approaches seen in parts of the West

In the United States and the UK, leaders and commentators often emphasize generosity and goodwill

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

Market-based systems can be effective, particularly for business owners

They can also create jobs and raise average incomes for many people

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

China is a prominent example of a communist-led country that has experienced rapid economic growth

I believe we have a lot to learn from China's experience

Even Trump has focused heavily on China in his messaging; despite occasional offhand comments, ███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

Trump has 74,650,754 voters, worth $81,695, and Kamala had 70,916,946

████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ business owners are Republicans who favor tax cuts

Typically, more liberal or progressive leaders tend to influence mostly upper middle class, more secular, and more educated communities

They generally support higher base taxes to pay for social spending

█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ religious (Christian), tend to be conservative

███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████, and some own extensive land (10m sq km)

$6,098,593,348,030 behind Trump

This is $6 trillion

Kamala has about $5,793,559,903,470 dollars behind her

There are $29.167 trillion in the US

161 million people out of 330m can vote in America

74 + 70 = 145,567,700

Apparently:

242m out of 330m can vote

81m did not

***

China $17.79 trillion USD or $12,614.06 for 1.411 billion people

All under Xi's leadership

This is a source of their strength

In SL, I think, I will need voter bases to count on to do anything with

However, it's $3,200 x 23m = $74b

That's not exactly very demanding, which I find challenging

I don't really do well when the standards or expectations are low

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

██████████████████████████████████████████████████

I wouldn't prioritize tiny targets, like a small pirate skiff or a simple floating plank

With what?

███████████████████████████████████████

I'm taking my █████████████████ medication to help me sleep.

I couldn't set up encryption because it caused errors. There were issues with string versus bytes. I was having trouble encrypting and decrypting files as well.

We'll see what can be done later.

There are experts I can speak to who can guide me on it.

Today, when I wake up, I will work on two other apps, as I finished the ads app. Then we'll just launch. We can move the data there, too, to serve audiences. We have a lot of business lined up as well.

That's encouraging.

We can start then.

Things will work out. Just be patient. Trust our team, God, and our strategy.
