From time immemorial, Sri Lankans have irrefutably proven their capacity, capability and sheer will to achieve bigger and better things. Everyone in this small island nation knows how to think big; from the ancient kings and emperors who built impressive stone monuments that remain standing today, and the engineers who built advanced irrigation systems thousands of years ago, to the scientists and economists who occupy a disproportionate number of the global hot seats today and the team of cricketers who uphold a nation’s spirit, Sri Lankans take pride in their history of remarkable achievement.
