Dr. Gamini Hewawasam’s appearance on the “Aluth Dinak” program on Rupavahini Corporation conveyed how change in Sri Lanka begins with individual responsibility. He emphasized that every citizen has a duty to contribute positively, irrespective of their background, to help build a better country.
Dr. Hewawasam discussed the importance of utilizing resources effectively and adopting a compassionate mindset in personal, social, and corporate spheres. He spoke about the concept of a “U-turn” as a metaphor for acknowledging past missteps and committing to a new direction.

He acknowledged that this shift will not happen instantly but requires commitment and a readiness to delve into these ideas further, especially during this pivotal moment for Sri Lanka.
