Sinhala is a good language but it is better for everyone if learn English.<br /><br />I must admit that I cannot speak or write in Sinhala but you can hear what I say because I'm fluent in English. That gave me a job too.<br /><br />I like to tell the writer to include a system to teach English to school drop-outs too. There are lot of them. They like to learn.<br /><br />There is no point arguing Sinhala-Tamil. We have no problem with Sinhala-Tamil. Everyone wants jobs and better jobs. They can't be studying languages all the time. If more people have better jobs, no one will fight or argue Sinhalam-Tamil. <br /><br />Sri Lanka has a lot of catching up to do with Tamil Nadu and Singapore.Yogananthan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04699903267060844009noreply@blogger.com
