The current government is pretty much the same faces that has been in power for over a decade.

The current president "Gotabaya Rajapaksha" is the Brother of "Mahinda Rajapaksha" who was the president before him.

When Mahinda Rajapaksha was in power, Gotabaya was the defence minister.

When Gotabaya was recently elected the president, Mahainda was the Prime-minister.

In Sri Lanka it doesn't matter which party you elect as the government, ministers jump from one party to the other always, they fight and throw chairs at each other in the parliament and on stages, but the very same day they will all meet and have a party with each-other. (I wish I was exaggerating)

there was a different government before Gotabaya was president and After Mahinda was president. But, it was basically the same old culprits.
