Editorial: Happy New Year

Let there be no more wars on this planet


The year 2019 was marked by a number of important events on the Asian continent, in the Middle East and a number of other regions. Regime changes, armed conflicts, the rapid growth in the number of terrorist attacks, natural disasters — that’s the outcome of the short-sighted policies employed by certain countries and Wahhabi states. The year 2019, Sri Lanka has suffered from one of the most ruthless terrorist attacks in the history of mankind allegedly sponsored by Islamic extremism. Events occurred in 2019 proved that our challenges are far bigger than we think.
