Interest for elders

Thought of writing this after reading Mrs. S Attanayake’s letter on Monday "Why lower interest rates for savers?"

When I wrote to Nagananda Kodituwakku (presidential aspirant) a few weeks back, asking his opinion about the effect on senior citizens due to lowering of interest rates – the reply he sent was: "This is a matter that is duly addressed in our manifesto. In a nutshell most public services for senior citizens will be free of charge (including medicine) and they will be looked after by the government in many ways including special interest rates".
