From 1993 to 2020, several government projects aimed to granted 7 perches of land to the Malaiyaha community in the Matara, Galle, and Kalutara districts. However, despite these efforts, 90% of the people have not received official documents confirming their land ownership.
So, Today, (13rd October 2024) Voice of the Plantation People Organization held a national level meeting with representatives from these districts to discuss the current situation and explore future actions. After in-depth discussions, the participants have agreed to take the following steps:
1. Collect accurate data on the issue.
2. Organize a national-level media discussion to raise awareness.
3. Conduct planning meeting - After the Parliament election.
4. Engage with relevant authorities to resolve this matter.
