[@ajithfernando7344]

Extraordinary presentation. Must be studied by all those involved in policymaking in the government. Like he says unless we learn from history we will repeat the same mistakes. Well moderated Murtaza. Great questions.

What a depth with simplicity …….taking the best out of an intellectual is not easy unless otherwise well-moderated
