Defeat of terrorism sets stage for national revival
(Srilankamirror) - Defeat of the LTTE in May 2009 has set the stage for a national revival that should enable Sri Lanka to become one of the leading countries in Asia, said defence secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa.
He was speaking at the induction ceremony of the Organization of Professional Associations at Waters Edge in Battaramulla yesterday (Jan. 03).
“I hope that all professionals will contribute to the national cause by putting aside whatever personal or political differences they may have and work together for the future,” he said.
