Sinhala and Tamil New Year Message from H.E. Ambassador Cheng Xueyuan
On the auspicious occasion of the Sinhala and Tamil New Year, I would like to convey the warmest greetings from the Chinese government and people, to all the Sri Lankan people, for a peaceful and prosperous new year!
The traditional New Year, known as “Aluth Avurudha” or “Puthandu”, symbolizes a good harvest. In the year to come, China is willing to work together with all levels of government, political parties and all walks of life in Sri Lanka to continue promote our pragmatic cooperation in various fields. China is also committed to continue provide all kind of aid and assistance within the capabilities to Sri Lanka for the latter’s national development and people’s welfare. Let’s expect a more fruitful harvest of China-Sri Lanka friendship and cooperation in the new year.
