Minister identifies lack of discipline as root cause of SL’s economic downturn

Date:

Colombo (LNW): Minister of Tourism and Lands and Minister of Sports and Youth Affairs Harin Fernando boldly pinpointed that the primary cause of Sri Lanka’s economic downturn is a critical deficiency in discipline.

Expressing the prevailing challenges faced by the populace, he acknowledged the discontent over the value added tax (VAT) increase and other shortcomings.

Minister Fernando vehemently emphasised that the solution lies not in a systemic overhaul but in a transformation of people’s ideologies.

Highlighting the crux of the issue, he declared that the nation’s remarkable system remains intact, attributing the downfall to a lack of discipline.

In a resolute call to action, the Minister asserted that what Sri Lanka truly needs is not a change in systems but a profound shift in the people’s ideologies, urging self-discipline as the cornerstone of national recovery.
