Colombo (News 1st);  The President officially launched the ‘Digital Platform’ to solicit the views of the public on the proposed education reforms.

From today for the next 3 months, the public can submit suggestions and ideas for new education reforms to the “digital platform” through the egenuma.moe.gov.lk website.

President Gotabaya Rajapaksa pointed out that the “Digital Platform” is a great opportunity for the public to come up with ideas and creative proposals to formulate a “Sustainable Education Policy Framework”.

“The vision and philosophy of a country are shaped by its education system. An outdated education system creates a society that cannot keep pace with the modern world. A policy formulated as a result of wide public representation cannot be changed in the event of a change of government, said the President.

The President made these remarks addressing the ceremony held at Temple Tree to launch the ‘Digital Platform’ to solicit the views of the public on the proposed education reforms.
