coordinate with SLIG. He emphasizes that this is more advantageous for the
Local Government Institutions in Sri Lanka.He declared these ideas at a
workshop held to make aware the provincial programme coordinating officers at Hector
Kobbekaduwa Agrarian Research and Training Institute, Colombo 07.
Expressing
further, the Director and the chief executive officer of the Sri Lanka
Institute of Local Governance, Sujeewa Samaraweera said “..When coordinating
with International Institutions, we gain the opportunity to share their
knowledge and experiences where we can develop our Local Government
Institutions. Their experiences will help us to overcome our current issues in
Local Government Institutions. We should plan the future training programmes
according to the state policies when implementing training needs in Provincial
Councils and Local Government Institutions. Training programmes should not be
affected by private needs. It is the public money we use for these training
programmes through our institute. So the training programmes should be done with
a proper plan and using qualified resource persons. Also
theoretical and practical training programmes should be planned. If not the training
programmes might be useless..”
