A good decision taken by Hayleys board.

a wise move.. as a fresh line of thinking badly needed for the company to overcome the present bad run of the company

Hayleys need a good leader. Hope Mr.Dhammika Perera will end up as a Chairman.

Good, People over 90% of Hayleys staff (from minor staff to management staff) are looking for a change.

Wonderful. It is very clear he may used proper words to make NGW take this decission.

He will be next chairman.

Wasantha where are you????????????

We desperately need young blood and innovative CIO’s for long run. Dhammika known all middle and first line management work hard for Hayleys and looked for shine the company. But presently we failed to create any …………. . First dhammika has to consider HR , Very Poor Stage in Hayleys.

Yong Blood is good, but with some sort of control and endurance.

Yes, Company HR activities should be looked in as a first priority. Hope, HR division will be liberated from the existing head soon for the betterment of the company and its employees.

But, have a doubt whether DP can access to all these areas only as a non-executive Director.

Kindly refer Mano’s comments made on “BOI Chairman became the major shareholder of Hayleys Limited within two weeks” and then you all can get an idea of what is now happening at Hayleys.

Old jokers might come against you. Hence identify them and handle them with care. Good luck DP!

Mr. Dammika Perera please show your real colours . Clean your old allegations of casino and others. This is a blue chip company. We expect some thing extra from you. Be active otherwise puff. puff. puff . Think of new ways like Mr. RY and Mr. NGW but dont delay salaries of monor employees.
