We have a problem

Wasantha Samarasinghe’s interview at the Doha World Investment Forum has sparked an important conversation about English proficiency, political leadership, and Sri Lanka’s international representation. But is speaking fluent English really necessary to be a good politician? In this video, we discuss Wasantha Samarasinghe, Foreign Minister Vijitha Herath, and the importance of effective communication when representing Sri Lanka on the global stage. Let’s be clear: Not speaking fluent English is nothing to be ashamed of. But when you’re representing over 20 million Sri Lankans at international meetings, shouldn’t you make an effort to develop the communication skills your position requires? This isn’t about political parties, accents, or educational backgrounds. It’s about professionalism, responsibility, and the standards we expect from our national leaders. 💬 What’s your opinion? Should English proficiency matter when appointing ministers to internationally focused positions?
