Sri Lanka: Time to Come Together to take Country Forward – PM

( October 27, 2016, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe today made a statement to Parliament on the state of the economy during which he said that it was time for the country to rise above personal opinions and different political affiliations and come together to take our country forward.

“We have the best opportunity for that under the National Government. We cannot hold the past accountable for not going forward into the future. There’s no use in shedding tears over the wrong economic pursuits of the past. Instead, we need to focus on the path forward, on our ability to compete successfully in a dynamic global market place and carve out our niche among the prosperous nations of the world,” the Prime minister said in his address.
