And other leaves minimum 15 days so totally 130 non working days out of 365 days

I think SL is the only country in the world which highest number of public holidays
As a result of its ethnic diversity, Sri Lanka also is home to various religious faiths and is one of the few countries to celebrate every religious holiday
There might be no other country in the world with so many holidays as in Sri Lanka. In addition to all the Sundays all important Christian, Moslem and Hindu festivals and all Buddhist and national festivals are celebrated. Sri Lanka has about 72 holidays per year.
Great country! |

In Western countries they only celebrate X'mas, I am told. We should reciprocate by making Dec 25th a working day. Also, Ramazan and Thai Pongal should be made working days. |

Ru I have a serious q for you, If you are so strong with your principles being a Buddhist. How come you went to Bishop's?. you should have gone to a Buddhist school,why double standard. |
