Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Please allow one minute. The system is currently being maintained, as any system typically must be maintained by its developer. But I clearly state: from here onward, while I hold this office and have ownership, these companies will not take new Government projects. I stepped down as CEO and am only serving in this role. There is nothing to hide; the Opposition may verify anything. Do not mislead the country with false allegations.
