Speaking at an programme held to lay the foundation stone for a children’s development school in Ellegala area in Hambantota, Minister of Housing and Samurdhi Sajith Premadasa says that he will face any challenge when serving the public.

The foundation stone for the school was laid as part of the programme of the Ministry of Housing and Samurdhi to uplift and develop 15,000 villages under the theme “Dorin Dorata Gamin Gamata.”

Minister Premadasa stated that there is a group of persons that brought the ethanol culture, drug culture, casino culture, culture of extortion, as well as the culture of molesting children and women to the country, and placed the nation at the mouth of destruction.

He went on to note that they are ready to face these challenges out of fear for the sake of this country’s development and people.

He added that they are even ready to sacrifice their lives, and added that with the guidance of Ranasinghe Premadasa, he is ready to fulfill this historic revolutionary development programme and lay it at the feet of the people.
