Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Thank you, Hon. Minister. We speak of women’s protection. Recently in Vavuniya, a woman was found decapitated; another woman government officer died in a fire. Such insecurity persists. By empowering women, we can grow the economy and reduce State expenditure while cutting subsidies through growth. Your answers were clear; I thank you again.
