Issuing a new year message, Foreign Minister Rohitha Bogollagama said in this new year ’We need to focus on a more people centred diplomacy by connecting with people at all levels. We will need to be proactive in diplomacy, friends to all, and enemies to none and based on our traditional non-aligned value based approach’. The Minister said the Ministry had successfully faced numerous challenges during the year 2007 and in the year 2008, he sees a further increase of such challenges. The Minister also said that he is confident that the Foreign Service is well groomed and capable of achieving Sri Lanka’s foreign policy objectives.
