Statement
by Hon. Nimal Siripala de Silva
(Leader of the House)
at the Sri Lanka Parliament
upon tabling the final report
of the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission
(LLRC) The achievement of national reconciliation is one of the principal aims of the government after the eradication of terrorism. The reign of terror, which our country had to endure for thirty long years, was the main impediment to economic and social development in every sector. It is a matter or deep satisfaction to the government that it has been able to rid Sri Lanka of this menace. We now have the opportunity, which eluded us for so long, to derive the fullest benefit from our country’s natural strengths and, in particular, from the unique caliber of our human resources. |
