“Pakistan Army would continue to support Sri Lankan Army in its pursuit of excellence,” COAS said while addressing the passing out parade at Sri Lankan Military Academy, says a press release received here. He said it is a matter of honour and privilege for him to have been invited by General Jagath Jayasuriya, Commander of Sri Lankan Army, to review the passing out.
He said the Sri Lankan Army has proved its mettle under the most trying circumstances and has emerged victorious not only in the context of purging the menace of militancy and violence but also in pursuit of post conflict peace and stability.

Our army needs training from sri lankan army to deal with the talibans.
Next time while Srilanka team visit Pakistan, let them bring their own security/military to protect themselves from the terrorists as the inefficient Pakistan Army cannot do anything in this matter.
The army chief is correct in praising the SL army for their victory over the terrorists but at the same time he should have taken up the issue of harassment of Muslims in Sri Lanka.
