“We respect all three official languages in Sri Lanka, and urge Chinese companies to follow,†the embassy said in a tweet.
The embassy pointed out the Tamil language is given equal prominence by sharing images of the signage at the Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMCIH), and the 600 years†old Zheng He Stone Tablet displayed at the National Museum, Colombo
