Cannot understand why Sri Lanka has to take credit for these appointments saying Sri Lankan origin or Sri Lankan born when they are not Sri Lankans anymore and doubt if they even want to be identified as "Sri Lankan born"!

Don’t call them origin when you chased them away. They are the products of their own effort and nations
