A prominent scholar who strongly stresses requirement of Sinhalese to carry their mother language to global village,
and show international community the strength of the Sinhala language.
"I agree with the opinion of in safe hands of the Sinhala language,
but did you ever think that same policy would lead to die our mother language in the international contexts.
Its like a mother killing her own offspring by pushing tightly towards her because of the too much of love.
Let Sinhala to change, by absorbing words from English and other languages for it’s own survival.
It happened in the many stages of country's history in the regimes of Portuguese, Dutch and English."
