Venerable Elle Gunawansa thera in an exclusive discussion with a reputed weekend newspaper had

been asked a question and the answer given by the thera is as below:

Q: Will President Maithripala Sirisena serves to benefit the country?

A:  I cannot make predictions right now. He has to build up a good team. For every task the best person has to be selected.

Even Lord Buddha conveyed what he learnt first to the “Paswaga Mahanun”.However as the two Chief Disciples were two different persons. Lord Buddha entrusted the exercise of ordaining Prince Rahula to someone else.Elle Gunawansa thera concluded saying only Lord Buddha possessed unique qualities.
