Addressing the final sessions of the three-day South Asian Conference on Sanitation (SACOSAN), President Rajapaksa stressed that Sri Lanka’s humanitarian initiatives had enabled the government not just to end a 30-year-old conflict but to divert resources earlier spent on the war towards welfare and development. “I can say this as our government not only has ended a painful and costly war against terrorism and we have reduced our defense expenditure that had been well in excess of 5% of GDP before 2005 to around 3% last year. This is a level required only to provide national security and to sustain peace in the country,” President Rajapaksa emphasized. “We need to give the benefits of economic growth back to the peopIe so that they could afford their basic needs,” he said.
At a time when the world is faced with so many disasters both natural and man-made, it was necessary to be prepared to face the sanitation needs of our countries.
IRSP Participated in SACOSAN IV held at Colombo Sri Lanka. IRSP was represented by Executive Director Syed Shah Nasir Khisro and Manager M&E Mr. Altaf Ur Rahman.
