The Hon. Dilith Jayaweera
Dilith Jayaweera urged that entrepreneurship be treated as a core element of national strategy rather than a vague concept. He called for studying regional and global competition and argued that embedding entrepreneurship in the national mindset would help address social problems such as drug use and support national development.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 You are being unkind! I think you did not give me those extra two minutes. Anyway, 30 seconds to sum up?
¶ 02 Entrepreneurship is not a loose word. Understand its deep meaning, study regional and global competition and incorporate that into national strategy. When entrepreneurship truly enters our national mindset, only then will people turn away from drugs and other ills and rise as one nation. Thank you.
