Wickremesinghe has served as a Trustee of the Employers’ Federation of Ceylon and on a number of Government commissions and boards including the Securities and Exchange Commission, National Education Commission, the Sri Lanka Institute of Development Administration and the Postgraduate Institute of Management of the University of Sri Jayewardenepura.
Thanks.
