Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Thank you. Do not be angry, Hon. Chairman. I only said you have no right to sit there because this Parliament came due to J.R. Jayewardene’s efforts and our international relations; learn from that history, do not curse it.
¶ 02 In conclusion: Sri Lankans are a proud and dignified nation before the international community. We must never allow our country to be dragged into disgrace or embarrassment on the world stage.
¶ 03 Thank you very much.
