Children have to start living righteously from tender ages, Public Relations and Public Affairs Minister Mervyn Silva said pointing out that children have to also learn to live courageously and intelligently.


The Minister made these statements while attending the opening of a seminar for students in the Wattala Educational Zone preparing for this year’s scholarship examination.


Mervyn Silva also requested from the students and parents gathered at the seminar to avoid consuming any meat as they will be taken to cemeteries after death. “Don’t turn your stomach into a cemetery.” he advised.
