The third Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Dunedin Sri Lankan Society Inc. (DSLS) was held on the 9th of June 2024 at St Patrick’s Basilica Hall, South Dunedin. The event started with an official welcome by the president of the society, followed by the approval of the minutes from the last AGM. The president then presented the past year’s progress of the society, highlighting the glamorous events organised during the term of 2023/24. This was followed by the treasurer’s annual financial report. The membership was excited about the amount of funds obtained by the society, considering it a triumph achieved in a short period, just one year from its inception.

The final item on the agenda was to elect the new office bearers and the executive committee for the upcoming term, 2024/25. The elected office is Mr. Susil Gunathilaka – President, Mr. Kasun Gayathra – Secretary, Dr. Duminda Kuruppuarachchi – Treasurer, Dr. Suranga Dassanayake – Vice President, Mr. Inas Jenabdeen – Assistant Secretary, Mrs. Niroshani De Silva – Assistant Treasurer, and the committee members are Mr. Nishantha Alahakoon, Mrs. Dulari Ranasinghe, Mrs. Probodha Rathnayake, Mr.Primal Silva, Mr. Indunil Silva, Dr. Kavindra Wijenayake and Mr. Gayan Mendis.

The newly elected president addressed the gathering, expressing gratitude for the support extended by the membership and for making the second AGM a success. The gathering enjoyed a pleasant evening with light refreshments and socialisation.
