Opinion

Appreciation

November 13, 2023

Everything in this world must come to an end. This happened to Gamini Weerakoon, Journalist and former Chief…

Retired from the National Health Service ( NHS -UK)- Medicines Control Agency in London; formerly attached to The British Pharmacopoeia Commission Laboratory at Canons Park, Middlesex, (NHS) the UK.

He was a veteran journalist, accredited as the London Correspondent by all the major English Newspapers published in Sri Lanka; also accredited as the Newspapers’ London Correspondent with The Commonwealth Press Union, London.

He is retired at present and very much acts as a ‘retyred” journalist. His main hobby is writing concentrating on the maxim: ‘Facts are Sacred, the Comment is Free.‘

He was a weekly columnist at The ‘Ceylon Today’ newspaper for several years, but presently he concentrates on converting his valuable articles ( both general and political) into book form. He looks forward to publishing his book concentrating on a series of short stories ( some modified into the blend with present circumstances) while he has written studying in London.
