The Japan-Sri Lanka Friendship Association made a significant contribution to the Sigiriya community today (24 May 2023), solidifying its presence and commitment to fostering bilateral relations. The initiative carried out with the approval of the Commander of the Air Force, Air Marshal Sudarshana Pathirana and under the supervision of Commanding Officer of SLAF Station Sigiriya, Group Captain Chaminda Herath, aimed to support low-income families in the area.

Mr. Goto Hideaki, accompanied by a delegation from the association, displayed the benevolence by generously donating a consignment of reading spectacles to the local community in Sigiriya. Furthermore, on the same day, a momentous event took place at Thalkote Primary School in Sigiriya.
