"Sri Lanka has spent decades chanting the slogan “6% for education”. But while the shouting has grown louder, confidence in the education system has collapsed. Parents no longer trust schools. Tuition shops now hold families to ransom. Employers no longer trust graduates. And

The former Canadian ambassador to India, my friend David Malone, passed away on Monday – of his own volition. Medically-assisted termination of life is not legal in India, but it is in Canada, and David, suffering from cancer and Alzheimer’s, chose this route. My rumination on my

Hearing @MontekSinghPC at @JindalGlobalUNI is a delight as he shared the stories of 1991 #reforms, not just to know the history but to learn for future. Evidance based #policymaking needs leaders with intellect and courage! Dr @_ManmohanSingh Memorial Lecture at @JSGP_JGU.

Thank you @ShashiTharoor 🙏 Unfortunately, the leadership is not able to see the value of his service - not even his contribution to lift the Island out of the terrible crisis in 2022. This is the most they could get to put him behind the bars & failed to grant him bail even.

Concerned about the detention of former Sri Lankan President Ranil Wickramasinghe on what, on the face of it, seem trivial charges. His health issues have already seen him taken to the prison hospital. I call on the government of Sri Lanka -- while fully respecting that this is

Spoke in @ParliamentLK today defending #Rohingya refugees. During #lka civil war, Sri Lankans sought refuge worldwide for better life. Today, it's our turn to show the same compassion. We have both legal & moral obligations to protect those fleeing persecution, not deport them.

my friend Lasantha Wickrematunge Sixteen years ago on 8th January 2009, I received a phone call that Lasantha was attacked and taken to the Kalubowila Hospital. I was not a politician then but a Banker and a friend of Lasantha. Each year on 8th January I visit Lasantha’s grave

#PlatformWorkers #Gigworkers @kunalkamra88 asks @letsblinkit CEO to reveal wages of delivery partners, says quick commerce #exploits gig workers.

For the first time in history, Brasil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva received the document containing civil society's contributions to the construction of public policies at the G20.

Extraordinary, Humble and Vitty, #BibekDebroy, thank you for your writings that helped me learn the #Indian State.

NPP and AKD @anuradisanayake has proven that words belted at campaign stages and their 263 page manifesto is nothing but a bunch of lies. Extremely disappointing ! PTA is disastrous and it must be repealed. I guess AKD too wants to misuse the PTA for political gain.

Thank you @RehanJayawick
