President Ranil Wickremesinghe’s visit to Japan next week is important to rebuild the country’s economy, UNP MP Vajira Abeywardena said.
Speaking to the media in Galle, he pointed out that the President is taking great pains to arrive at a consensus with Sri Lankan’s creditors and donors.
“President Wickremesinghe is the only contemporary leader in Sri Lanka who has the international recognition to proceed on this task. All public representatives in Parliament and the public have a responsibility to support his endeavours to rebuild the economy,” he said.
Commenting on Wickremesinghe’s visit to the UK to attend the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, MP Abeywardena pointed out that Wickremesinghe’s father Esmond Wickremesinghe and mother Nalini Wickremesinghe had attended the coronation ceremony of the Queen back in 1953. The MP said that the media should cease inciting hatred and anger among the public and adopt a self-regulatory mechanism.
