Congratulations, Defence Secretary!

This is to thank you for enlightening patriotic public on a night recently, of the Government's determination to fight terrorism. What touched us most on a lovely Sunday Night was your solemn pledge of finishing this menace, and not leaving this problem to our next generation.

Being a parent I think most parents will pray that the Blessings of The Triple Gem will be with you and the brave soldiers to achieve that noble duty of saving our beloved COUNTRY!

It was very humble of you to give full credit of all the victories to the valiant soldiers who are behind weapons as it is not weapons that make the difference but men who are behind them.

I have visited the East before and after your Government cleared it from the ruthless terrorists who ruled that part of our country. You should have invited the so called arm-chair critics to visit the East and assess the development you have done there.

You should also request them to visit the East and speak to the people who have been living there to find out how happy they are now. Or better take them there at Government expense and let them find out the truth.

I have been a chairman of a Corporation and have been a working committee and an executive committee member of the United National Party. I do not think you should answer to the people who want you out of the position you are holding. Have courage as the whole nation is behind you. As they say Rome was not built in a DAY!

Thank you for not blaming the past regimes and opposition politicians (which has been the practice) during your interview!

You have shown the whole country what a OFFICER and a GENTLEMEN you are!
