Over 700 members of Sanasa attended this event representing over 100 Sanasa societies in Kurunegala District.
The need of a broader development programme from grass root level to the national level which has the support of all Sanasa societies was discussed primarily, while Sanasa Life Insurance, Sanasa General Insurance Company, Sanasa Campus, SANASA International Pvt Ltd and Sanasa General Assembly play a key role in implementing this project.
"If we are to overcome the current crisis situation, we shouldn't wait for relief from the government.
Everyone from grass root level to national level should come together for this.
We are implementing the "Let's cut expenses and increase income" programme to popularize this ideology.
There's much we can do together and personally.
The concept of Sanasa that is being implemented across the world successfully is taking decisions together," Dr. P. A. Kiriwandeniya said.
