"We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land and pay our respect to First Nation Indigenous elders/leaders past and present. We recognise the Indigenous communities' giftedness, contributions and achievements. Their footsteps were here long before our shoeprints. Their handprints were here, centuries before our buildings rose. Their cultural authority and traditions were established long before our communities of relationships and leadership came to be. Let's walk gently on this land".

Serving Our Community Since 1973

We are an association for all Sri Lankans in NSW providing a common meeting ground for persons of Sri Lankan origin and to integrate with the Australian community.

    I’m so pleased the Sri Lanka Association has taken the initiative to pressure the government to sign up to net zero at COP26.
    I’m 71 years old. My generation is clearly responsible for the biggest damage caused to the world environment and climate. I’ve decided before we go, we owe it to the coming generations to do something about it in a way we can.
    Hence I’ve decided at every Federal and State election hereon,  I will vote for the major party with the best plans to address climate change.
    I’m very disappointed with the current Federal Government not showing any leadership in this matter but extremely pleased our NSW State government is showing the way how to do this.
    I’m also very concerned with damage being done by corrupt politicians to democracy everywhere. So I will be seriously considering voting for a major party with the best plans for a Federal truly independent anti-corruption body.
    You can count on my support in these matters.
