    I like your work. If Anusha Palpita works for Laugfs gas while on bail during corruption jail conviction, does this cause conflict of interest between Laugfs and government. As laugfs would have protected Anusha and when charges are dropped he goes back government work. And if Anushas brother supplies LPG to laugfs does this increase the price for poor Sri Lankans. Look into it ask Laugfs the question I have evidence
