“Such seminars would also create public awareness and make known to civil society the vital necessity to effect improvement of governance and to strictly enforce the rule of law, even changing amendments to current statutes. Those taking part in such seminars would have a golden opportunity to engage in discussions,” the organisers said.
Wijeya Newspapers Ltd is the print media sponsor of these seminars.
