Implementation of ‘Clean Sri Lanka’ Program with a Focus on Humanitarian Goals is Essential.
Prime Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya emphasized the significance of implementing the “Clean Sri Lanka” initiative with a focus on humanitarian objectives. Speaking at the Colombo District Coordination Committee meeting held at the District Secretariat in Narahenpita this morning, the Prime Minister emphasized the complexity of the program and its wider purpose beyond just environmental cleanliness.
The meeting included discussions on various topics such as the allocation of land for an explosives warehouse in the Colombo District, the future development plans for local government institutions, community empowerment initiatives, and the implementation of the “Clean Sri Lanka” campaign. There was also a focus on resolving issues related to paddy lands bordering Maharagama and Kesbewa, the urgent need to remove waste at the Colombo Main Bus Stand, and putting an end to unsafe garbage disposal in the Niripola paddy fields in Seethawaka.
Prime Minister Amarasuriya stressed that the public had voted for change in the last election, requiring the government to fulfill those expectations. She emphasized that “Clean Sri Lanka” is not just about environmental cleanliness, policy enforcement, or legal measures but also about promoting excellence in behavior and human connections.
“The change must start at an individual level. People should decide the impact they want to create in their surroundings. Being sensitive and providing high-quality service to the public is crucial to ensure satisfaction with the services offered. This is a transformation that cannot be achieved through official directives alone,” the Prime Minister declared.
The government is dedicated to ensuring the success of the “Clean Sri Lanka” program, involving all stakeholders in creating a cleaner, more organized, and community-driven future.
