    New Year greetings from the Opposition Leader

    April 14, 2017

    I would like to extend my heartiest wishes to all those celebrating the Sinhala and Tamil New Year.

     


    As always, a new year marks a new beginning and brings new hope and expectation for everyone. As a nation, we have a crucial year ahead of us. It is a year that could be decisive in determining the future of our country and people. My hope and prayer, therefore, is that we would unite in the coming New Year, to achieve our dream of building a peaceful and prosperous Sri Lanka that upholds the dignity and equality of all communities.

     


    I believe, however, that this dream could only be realized through a new constitution. Hence, I call upon all citizens to support the promulgation of the new constitution, ensuring the realization of the dream of a new Sri Lanka.

     


    As we celebrate the new year, I would also like to encourage that we remember our brothers and sisters who are vulnerable, marginalized, and grieving among us. They deserve our attention, support, and urgent action.

     


    May this New Year bring true happiness, peace, and prosperity to all.

     


    R. Sampanthan
