CHANGE IN GUARD -SLLS

I am hereby giving notice formally that I am relinquishing the Chair from April next year. it is not a sudden decision as I have been contemplating this for some time. I cannot quote the standard political jargon of "in order to spend more time with my family" !This leaves plenty of time for new ideas and new names to take the SLLS forwards. It has given me a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction to Chair for the past 10 years but it is now definitely time for new blood and fresh thinking.

Thanks to all of you and a special thanks to my fellow committee members Ruwan and Niro.

Mahendra Gonsalkorale 4th December 2020
