Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya, on her official visit to the United Kingdom, told Sri Lankans living in London that despite natural disasters and international crises, her government has succeeded in stabilizing the country’s economy while providing relief to the people.
She stressed that Sri Lanka’s political culture has undergone a positive and irreversible transformation, marking a new chapter in governance.
The Prime Minister made these remarks during a cordial meeting with nearly one thousand Sri Lankans representing Sinhala, Tamil, and Muslim communities.
According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the event drew a large turnout despite being held on a weekday.
PM Amarasuriya engaged in discussions with community members, underscoring the importance of unity and resilience in overcoming challenges while reaffirming the government’s commitment to sustaining progress.
Also addressing the event, Minister of Women and Child Affairs Saroja Paulraj, stated that a governance system has now been established in the country where all communities are treated equally, and the benefits of economic development are shared fairly among all citizens.
Moving away from the traditional method of political gatherings, the event also provided an open platform for members of the Sri Lankan community to directly raise questions and express their views to the Prime Minister and the Minister.
Commenting on the organization of the event, the organizing committee stated that all expenses, including dinner, were borne by the participants themselves. (Newswire)
