Today I went to re register the mobile phone to Mobitel
I told them that I am the owner but my wife use it
Mobitel wants my wife to be photograph but not me!!!
They are not worried about the registered owner only the user.
Therefore why not reregister all motor vehicles in Srilanka and say All occupants need to be registered.
Then we can get rid of most of the three wheelers, Buses, Govt cars, escort vehicles.

Time is very short better buy some Cattle Horses and Donkeys commence feeding them. ASAP
