Hasitha, I consider myself a product of Harry Jayawardena.

He gave me $4,000 that my dad invested long ago, which he had grown with care.

Good luck on your journey; I believe in you, as do many others.

Please do your best not to harm the stock price.

You're a AAA Fitch business, top 10 in SL.

I remember Harry saying, "I read what you wrote!" to a journalist in a bitter tone; he also reacted angrily and reportedly showed fierce ability to defend his honor.

I couldn't help but chuckle.

"First put your own house in order, before trying to put anything else right.."

I smiled.

I received Rs 1,200,000, which is now Rs 1,300,000 from you.

***

Just ignore the negative commenters.

They may allege ties to Chandrika and make harsh remarks.

You helped save DCSL in a fair manner.

Chandrika was a prominent leader who served in Sri Lanka.

Consider honoring your father's memory by supporting the development of our people.

When I think of Harry and why I once wanted to create "Harry's Bank" — although I no longer do, since he has sadly passed — it is because:

He made the best of the hand he was dealt.

He brought Western ideas to Sri Lanka as a Sinhalese entrepreneur, and he achieved much, walking with influential figures as an equal.

I saw that Kanchana Ratwatte spoke with people who rank court systems, and Denmark ranked highest.

And there is so much to gain when we pool our best energies together.

Work to promote good outcomes, focus on exports and branding, and continue efforts to address the kassipu moonshine problem as your father did.

He would wear civilian clothing to observe liquor operations, hired security staff to manage operations with disciplined systems, and was respected for his authenticity and integrity.

Those are qualities we can draw inspiration from in Harry and apply in our own lives.
