Hey .@LowyInstitute you should consider some narrative analysis to your Covid-response ranking. Did you the know the #SriLanka govt is forcibly cremating its #COVID19 victims (inc. 20-day old infants) disregarding the religious & human rights of its citizens? #forcedcremations
Also did you know .@LowyInstitute that SL cabinet ministers have promoted an unknown potion made by some quack as a "miracle" #COVID19 cure? And are refusing to accept responsibility for their part in it?
Did you know .@LowyInstitute that thousands of SL migrant workers are without proper food, water, housing or money stuck in the middle East because our govt is not repatriating them back home? And when they do, it is not the state bearing a significant part of the cost of it?
But now thanks to your ranking .@LowyInstitute the Sri Lankan govt will pat itself on the back and say "good job" to each other - while the reality is, our numbers may not to as high as some other countries, but SL's response has been far from humane, intelligent or acceptable.
