The following are excerpts of the speech by S. Skandakumar who was the guest of honour at the launching of the book \u2018The Community\u2019 which was penned by Mevan Pieris. The book launch was held at SLFI Auditorium on March 21, 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was three years ago that an equally eminent Thomian Anura\u00a0 Tennekoon invited me to speak at the launch of his book. Today I am privileged again by one of similar standing and must thank Mevan for the opportunity,\u201d is how Skandakumar began his speech.He said that it merely reinforced the values of our two great institutions, where the fierceness of competition on the playing fields have led to the strongest of bonds off it.<\/span>
\n\u201cSandwiched between the learned Professor, and the revered Warden, I feel like a Dwarf. Thankfully Royal\u2019s sterling performance at the big match on Saturday has given me a few inches!<\/span><\/p>\n


\n\u201cIt is not my intention to comment on this amazing research and labour of love of Mevan\u2019s . It\u2019s an area I must leave to the Professor who is far more qualified than I to do it.<\/span>
\n\u201cI will instead touch briefly on the author who I have known for almost sixty years,\u201d the speaker said.<\/span>
\nSkandakumar and Pieris had first met at the Royal Thomian of 1965.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nSkandakumar and Pieris had first met at the Royal Thomian of 1965.<\/span><\/p>\n

He went on to state, \u201cA great rear guard action in the post tea session on the second and final day for our last wicket between Nissanka Wadugodapitiya and Lakshman Thalayasingham saw us earn an honourable draw that prompted our winning captain of the 1969 encounter Eardley Lieversz to pen an article which he captioned -When a Draw can be as good as a Win\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Royal team was truly honoured !<\/span>
\n\u201cOur paths next crossed at the Colombo University where we played three seasons of the Premier P.Sara tournament together.<\/span>
\n\u201cIn the third season Mevan was made captain and it was a season of great achievement made possible by his inspirational leadership.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHis attention to detail, meticulous planning, complimented by his own sterling performances with both bat and ball raised the bar for every member of our team. And it was no surprise when we became champions in our league; beating some very formidable sides. One had no less than seven national players!<\/span>
\n\u201cSadly examinations clashed with the final round games and we were never at full strength thereafter.<\/span>
\n\u201cWe then went our separate ways and Mevan achieved much in the field of education completing an MBA and qualifying as a Chartered Chemist and made a significant contribution to the Plastic and Rubber Industries of the Country.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHis meticulous application to detail, flair for research, and a passion for anything he undertook has now evolved a book probably unparalleled in content and in history.<\/span>
\n\u201cAs the Warden mentioned, the contents will be debated for their negatives, but the positives he pointed out remind us of the contribution this elitist group of three colonial eras of the Portuguese, Dutch and British, made to the well-being of Society in general.<\/span>
\n\u201cWhile we take those positives let us today take a step back to reflect seriously and honestly at where we are as a nation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor a Country blessed with natural resources as we have and inherent talent as we see even today, the circumstances we are in, seventy five years into Independence have left me utterly humiliated as a Sri Lankan.<\/span>
\n\u201cNever did I even remotely dream in my time at the University, that in the twilight of my life I would see our great country placed as it is today.<\/span>
\n\u201cThere is a future we owe and must ensure for our succeeding generations and it is now time to press the reset button to facilitate that.<\/span><\/p>\n
