TIL that in 1979, a Burma ambassador in Sri Lanka murdered his wife before burning her body in his backyard- in front of spectators and the police.

Wow- met Dashni Morad, the woman who followed the shining example of the NZ Prime Minister and wore a Cross to show solidarity to the killed Christian women & men in Sri Lanka.
Just wanted to help my friend's place out. Ever since the attack, his place wasn't doing as well as it used to. In my opinion, and to be completely frank with you guys , he has the best bubble tea and East Asian food in all of Sri Lanka, I'm not being biased is actually that good.
State of 4.5G in Sri Lanka? And roadmap for 5G?
As I know Mobitel & Dialog has 4.5G in coverage Colombo, but Dialog only for routers and not for cellular phones. Am I correct?
I'm using Dialog and I've never seen my phone connect to a 4.5G network anywhere in Colombo. While I've heard some Mobitel users have connected to 4.5G there.
And SLT Fibre is 4G and not 4.5G as I know.
With 4.5G still not even mainstream, and the two main carriers Dialog & Mobitel already demonstrating 5G, is there a chance that Sri Lanka wouldn't lag up in 4.5G and jump straight to 5G?
Are their any authorized Google Pixel or OnePlus dealers in Sri Lanka? I'm looking to buy a smartphone and most of these shops in Colombo look way too shady. Who are your recommendations?
