My goal as Honorary Consul is to further strengthen the relations between, Sri Lanka, US and Hawai’i. As well as uniting the Sri Lankan community in Hawaii. Our community here may be small compared to others but when united we are able to accomplish great things for both nations.
I am ready to work hand in hand with our Sri Lankan Community and lead it in a new direction to bring prosperity to both our motherland Sri Lanka and our new home Hawaii.
