Sri Lanka doesn’t just need influencers. It needs the right kind of influencers.
We need people who inspire others to build real, skill-based careers. People who show that being a carpenter, mason, electrician, or mechanic is something to be respected and taken seriously.
Because one of the biggest problems we face today is the lack of proper skills in these trades. Many people work for a few months under someone and then start on their own without fully learning the craft. The result is poor quality work, unfinished projects, and clients left chasing after their own money.
This is not about disrespecting blue-collar jobs. It is the opposite. These professions are essential and deserve respect, proper training, and professionalism.
That is why influencers who promote skills, discipline, and craftsmanship add far more value to society than those who only tell us where to eat, what to wear, or what to buy.
If we want a better Sri Lanka, we need to value competence over convenience, and skills over hype.

When will we in #SriLanka come to our senses and do the same thing?
Contrary to what many believe, selling a state asset does not equate to betraying your country!
Re-reading Niccolo Machiavelli’s “the prince”. Makes me wonder why, and I repeat why, we didn’t reconcile. Even Machiavelli, who’s considered “cruel” emphasises the importance. I hope this government makes it top priority.
