Kotte Vihara registrar and Chief Sanghanayake for Japan and South East Asia Ven. Pelpola Vipassi Thera says that the current President Ranil Wickramasinghe, who has long political experience, should be given time to build the country.
The prelate also pointed out that everyone should support the President’s plan to solve the people’s problems by freeing the country from the current economic crisis, away from the method of ousting the rulers by holding protests.
The Maha Nayake Thera pointed out that the current President has fearlessly accepted the challenge at a time when the country is facing a disaster and expressed confidence that he will be able to overcome all the challenges.
Ven. Pelpola Vipassi Thera made these remarks when President Ranil Wickramasinghe yesterday afternoon visited the Sedawatta, Weheragoda ancient temple and engaged in religious rituals. During the visit to the historic temple, the President met with the Maha Sangha and inquired about their well-being. The President also had a friendly conversation with the people who had come to the temple, President’s Media Division said.
Sedawatta Weheragoda Ancient Temple, which is a temple of historical value, was dedicated by Helena Wijewardena and Don Philip Wijewardena.
Buddhasasana Minister Vidura Wickramanayaka, MP Suren Raghavan, Temple Trustees Chairperson Amari Mandika Wijewardene, Secretary Channa Wickramasinghe and others attended the event.
