On 20 February 2019, I hosted an episode of "Desa Live @9", featuring Mr. Ajith Nivard Cabraal, former Governor of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka.

The discussion was organized under the theme "The Central Bank, the Economy, Then and Now", focusing on Sri Lanka's economy, the role of the Central Bank, and the economic circumstances of the period.

At a time when economic policies and financial management were subjects of public discussion, the programme provided an opportunity to present the perspectives of a former Central Bank Governor with experience in the country's financial administration.

Through Facebook Live, I sought to make discussions on subjects such as economics and public policy more accessible to online audiences.

This programme forms part of my experience in live programme hosting, digital media communication, and organizing discussions on matters of national and public interest.
