Japan- Lanka Relations: Shotaro Noda’s Meeting With Hikkaduwe Sri Sumangala


| by Laksiri Fernando
( September 15, 2014, Sydney, Sri Lanka Guardian) After I last wrote about “Shotaro Noda’s Visit to Colombo from Japan in 1980” (Sri Lanka Guardian, 8 September 2014) some interesting comments and dialogue ensued. These were important in mapping Japan Sri Lanka relations from a true historical perspective, preferably a student/researcher of history should follow up. Those valuable comments were by Manel Fonseka and Dr. Janaka Goonetilleke.
