Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 I will conclude. When we point out Government mistakes, accept them fairly and correct course, instead of assuming “we never err; whatever we do is right; the people are with us forever.” Public opinion is not carved in stone; it changes. You have thrown down a challenge to us; as SJB and other Opposition groups, we accept it. Thank you.
