The Hon. Lasith Bhashana Gamage
Hon. Lasith Bhashana Gamage said the Government’s economic model had already been outlined in the first Budget and would be further reflected in the next Budget. He stated that the Government’s aim is to build a “prosperous country—beautiful life” by empowering families, villages, divisions and districts, with public participation, state institutions and political leadership working together.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Very well. The Opposition seeks our economic model. We discussed it in the first Budget. Even if I speak at length, you will keep seeking it for years. Next, you will have nothing to say when we present the next Budget. That too will happen.
¶ 02 Finally, to build a “prosperous country—beautiful life,” we will empower families, then villages, then divisions and districts, and build a strong Sri Lanka. We know this cannot be done alone; the President has said so. It needs public participation, the state machinery, and political leadership all working together. We will certainly succeed.
¶ 03 Thank you.
