Minister participating a discussion on problems related to a land in Trincomalee said, "the legality of the investments should be the concern rather than the investor's history". President Maithreepala Sirisena and Prime Minster Ranil Wickremasinghe are not taking any step threatening the country’s security.

The Leader of the Opposition R.Sampanthan MP participating the event pointed out, offering the ownership of local lands to the people should be done without damaging public or the development process of that area.

He also emphasized the importance of the investments and added the foreign investments for the development of the country should be obtained without damaging the national security.
