They are "1st world" experts in whining on pdf.

i wonder if these butthurt trolls know sri lanka is the wealthiest country in south asia. In fact it even ranks higher in hdi than the mighty supa powa china, the country whose feet every pakistani here licks like slaves. Pakistanis have no right to call sri lanka 3rd world when their country makes sub-saharan african countries look wealthy

Yes we do.

Besides, we can import far better models from China.
We have no intention of buying "Swadeshi" crap just because they are locally made or cheap.
lol.... first learn what "REFURBISHED" means.
It means you buy SECOND HAND stuff and repair it to make it "Look" like new.
But you DO

At least we do refurbish our own stocks. It's worth much more than importing units made of "Desi" Steel.
But you DO

Under political pressure. Otherwise, we do not need Indian stuff. Even the mighty WDM2s are turned out to be gas guzzling smoke monsters. What else to talk about anything else.
3rd world SL buying second hand stuff and pretending its 1st world. lol.
Meanwhile "Desi" Mittal Steel is the Largest steel producers in the world.
Why is 1st world SL under political pressure ? Make your own train or STFU. Pretty shameless to first buy our train and then bad mouth us.

Mittal maybe the largest produce of steel but that doesn't mean Indians get the best stuff either.
We don't want Indian stuff so don't shove them down on us. It's simple as that. We have used several of your trains and they don't last long.

Why what's wrong with it? Sri Lanka has a very humid climate.

Trains should be air conditioned and what are the handstraps for, are they subway trains? But I never saw a toilet on a subway train, that's really strange..

Why? Would you rather have them sitting this way? As if these trains never get crowded.
Not all the carriages are air conditioned, it is as per the requirements of the Sri Lankan railways.

How long ago were those photoes? Beside, China only have the rush during the Chinese new year, other times you never see people sitting on the floor, how long ago were those photos taken?? years ago that was uncommon.
Check this and find what a regular train ride in China is like

I don't care how old the photos are, this thread is not about Chinese railways. I am merely making a point.
This is the interior of chinese trainsets of Sri Lankan Railways. They also happen to have hand straps and fans. Go figure.
