(The writer is formerly of the Ceylon Civil Service; former Secretary and Director-General, Ministry of Education) It is an honour and a privilege for me to deliver the 13th J.E.
Jayasuriya Memorial Lecture. In an appreciation I wrote to the newspapers
on Prof. Jayasuriya's 83rd birthday, I described him as "Sri Lanka's

achievements, and the contribution he made to education in this country
are only too well-known to bear repetition on this occasion. Other Stories
