Most of our government workers aren't workers; they're just slackers that kissed ass into a cushy/stable government job for the pension that comes with it.
Our people are heavily in the "Benevolent Monarch" mindset. To them each new president is some kind of savior that they hand over the fate of their lives to.
Zero self-actualization. Be it at the personal or group level. Anyone that does have some sort of self-actualization is seen as weird or privileged. The "gib" mentality is strong.
When the British were forced to give us independence they lamented the fact that the majority of the population was neither politically wise nor independent and would screw up the country in a few decades.
Couple that with the Indian-sponsored LTTE as a means to annex Sri Lanka and you have a population that's disenfranchised, demotivated, and convinced the grass is greener on the other side while keeping their lawn in the dark.
