This is a cool place called Senegal in Western Africa, it's got the concept of "Teraanga", similar to Hakuna Matata which is just so cool, the people seem to be getting along great: all about trusting people, being kind to one another and getting along.

The majority Muslims and Christians share food, they're stable/peaceful and they're a good example for the region. Those small things, they add up, you build bonds that unite people.

Sri Lanka is doing fantastic, but we can encourage mingling, social cohesion and develop an "Inter Religious Organisation, Sri Lanka" emulating Singapore's IRO to work on building awareness, understanding and sensitivity training basics to learn about, connect, cooperate for trade, respect and trust each other.

I'll direct Cyberspace Command to the duty of building a SL IRO and connect all the communities together. I'm proud I have representatives in our senior level from all communities in Sri Lanka, including super minority Zoroastrian (unofficially), Burgher (informally) and Jewish people!

I feel I had a big advantage going to Colombo International School because I had friends from different backgrounds, races such as Tamils or Portuguese/Dutch descendant Burghers and faiths such as Christians, Muslims and Hindus.
