Bulath Hape or Chewed Betel

Bulath Hape or Chewed Betel

I hate betel leaves.
It leaves a nasty stain.
Besides, it predisposes to Oral Cancer.
I won't go into its individual contribution besides arecanut has more nasty chemicals in its constitution.
I saw a young guy with his mother, hoodwinking my neighbor who is a Christian by faith.
Asking for a FREE Bulath Atha.
 
I told him an average betel leaf's selling price is Six Rupees and is costlier than tea leaves which is anti-carcinogenic by nature, which is foreign by origin, thanks to the British.
Even coffee is foreign.
95% of our plants including cashew nuts brought in here by Portuguese are foreign.
Coming back to betel half a hand is 20 leaves costing 120 and the teachers collect them by hundreds and sell it back to the vendor, and same leaves are sold several times (I did not tell my neighbor of that shoddy transaction) just like the Ata Piricara, our Buddhist monks sell over 100 times.
They are supposed to have only two saffron cloths and half a dress of sarong type for bathing.
You can see how teachers get rich (even without tuition fees) and Buddhist monks are fabulously rich by cheating.
Once upon a tome bétel leaf was a political symbol.
We should ban bétel leaves since bribes are carefully wrapped inside and offered to Grama Niladharis in this country.
 
That is where thé corruption begins and Chinese should learn, thé tricks of thé trade before embarking on business big or small.
 
The voters are disposed like chewed betel in this country, till the next election.
 
It looks like bringing a military government into power they have done away with the supremacy of the voter contribution for their entire life.
 
Military does not understand Democratic Values but only the command chain of discontent for individual values and human rights.
