Yet another Sri Lankan first women's achievement! This is what we need our women to accomplish - not work in liquor shops wearing mini-skirts.

Sleeping Simon.... what about all those women who are going to ME as housemaids for ages now?

Isnt it better to just give women the freedom to work where they want to and wear what the want to? They may not all want to climb Mt. Everest.

I don't get some of these comments posted here. What's the connection between this Everest climb and women's achievements? Are they suggesting that this climber is a woman?

The Sri Lankan who first summited Everest was Jayanti... Johann could not summit. So he is going back in 2018..to be the first male from Sri Lanka
