A. The terrorists don't care what day it is when they attack ! What do you suggest ? Should the army just watch while rebels attack and kill them or Innocent people? Eggs and chicken are freely available on Poya days.Go in to any super market and See.The only things that are banned is beef and alcohol.Traditional Buddhists abhor eating beef.Most Sri Lankan people are Buddhist in case you don't know.And movie theaters are closed co'z it's a holiday (mercantile and bank).All countries have customs like this. You have to accept them and live with them.I you think one day of the month is this bad try going to Saudi Arabia ! Alcohol is banned 365 days of the year !
