   Excellent decision made by His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith requesting all churches to refrain from conducting Sunday and other Masses till the end of March.
   Sri Lanka is a Buddhist country, why not Mahanayake Thero will decide to have Piritha Sermon island wide either in morning or evening at specific time in all temples including Radio & TV stations. Thereby whole country will be blesses to get ride of this Corona Virus. During Lord Buddha period when there was a epidemic and Piritha was cantered. If Mahanayake Thero are not yet ready to make a decision, let it started by some other leading Buddhist organisation who were very active all the time in “political campaigns” .
