Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Then the racism and religious extremism that exist will also diminish, as will narrow aims among us. Therefore, Sir, if we as superior Members of this Parliament can confer that dignity through this House, we can make this country a good country, an environment where people can live well. I pray that your Government will have the strength to do that. I conclude. Thank you very much.
