good move, SL should adopt it.
Calistus Jayatilleke Friday, 12 October 2012 12:00 AM
A very good move in keeping with the times. It is high time we too in Sri Lanka stop referring to an elected President as a "King" and also refrain from calling uneducated fellows as "Doctor" because it is an insult to those who had earned Doctorates through sheer academic achievements. via DM Android App

Sri Lanka should follow suit ; not even in UK do they use these prefixes, Hon Prime Minister is how they are addressed and this is good enough for Sri Lanka too.

Can we not follow this practice in SL too with central secured locations for govt functions, without the inconvenience and chaos caused on public roads?

The term "Colonial" is not an honor. Its is the taste of "Slavery" wanting to be servants for comfort. 99.99 % of Sri Lankans may oppose this change as they all like to slaves of the masters. Who would dare to change the Torrrington Place? Are we not using the Bullers lane still? These are Slavery and not colonial!.

His excellency should be used only when addressing the president since India being a vast country it must be a nuisance with too many dignitaries!!

As you wish Hon. G(ji). Sri(Shri) Lanka dropped many.
