Speaking at the event, President Rajapaksa said that he is devoted to protect all religions – while protecting the Buddha Sasana and respecting other religions.
He also commented on modern technology and social media websites.
“Today there is facebook even in the Pirivenas. We must use this modern technology. We cannot prohibit it. All that we can do is teach our children to identify right from wrong. “
“Parents need to be more cautious with their children. I think that incidents occur because of the lack of knowledge on how to use this and the neglect of parents,” he noted.
