Only a statement no plans and government doesn't have revenue to support and implement the policy plan we have heard many statements in the past

Without a vote means no objections. Voting is done only if there is objection.

If Sri Lankans want to build strong united Sri Lanka, Tamils or Sinhalese or Muslims does not impose their will on each other. Instead, each of these communities respect each others. If any of these communities practice barbaric culture, they should stop these practice if they are considered by international law as a barbaric.
