President Expresses Confidence on the Country’s Prosperous Future

President Anura Kumara Disanayake stated that the National People’s Power (NPP) government has stabilized the economy over the past four months that has instilled confidence in the country’s ability to move toward a prosperous future.

He noted that the government has achieved numerous economic victories, increased state revenue, and resumed several stalled development projects initiated with foreign assistance, thereby signaling economic stability to the nation.

President Disanayake made these remarks yesterday (21) during the parliamentary debate on the third reading of the budget.

He asserted that those who attempt to disrupt this national progress for political gain will ultimately be rendered irrelevant in politics. He emphasized that the only path available to all politicians in the country today is to align with and support the government’s development agenda.

Additionally, the President stated that the era of media-driven politics has come to an end, arguing that if such an approach were still effective, the current government would not have come to power. He described the present administration as a political movement that remains engaged in continuous dialogue with the people.

Reflecting on past opportunities to rebuild the nation that was squandered, President Disanayake stressed that neither he nor his government would let the current opportunity slip away. He reiterated that their mission will only conclude once the country has been fully rescued from its current challenges.

President Anura Kumara Disanayake stated that neither he nor any minister in the government harbors personal ambitions; instead, their only aspiration is the well-being of the country and its people. He firmly assured that this vision would be realized and invited all opposition members to participate actively in the nation’s journey toward success rather than being remembered in history as obstacles to progress.
