Why we accept European Union to have an Ambassador in Sri Lanka when all the important European countries individually already have an Ambassadors in Sri Lanka. Each of the Asian country has an Ambassador in each of the major European countries but do anybody thing any European country would accept in addition an Ambassador from the South Asian Regional Organisation in their country ? Now we even appointed a Sri Lankan president to this association and we feel happy about it. Europe knows how to fool the third world.
