Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, I heard a comment in this Chamber today that a lady MP in Malimawa was called “childish.” I wish to state clearly that there is no such “childish” lady MP in Malimawa. Our ultimate objective is to make this country prosperous and to beautify the lives of our citizens. All the women within Malimawa are strong. We are all hopeful that on the 669th day we will build that prosperous country, uplift the lives of our citizens, and we will not turn back. I conclude in silence.
¶ 02 Thank you very much.
