Politics
Sunethra Bandaranaike18 June 2007
Sunethra Bandaranaike
Talks about being part of a political dynasty.

Sunethra Bandaranaike is the daughter of the world’s first ever female prime minister - Sirimavo Bandaranaike - and belongs to one of Asia’s most powerful political dynasties. She tells Ritula why Asia largely remains a man’s world despite having so many famous female leaders and why she refused to become a politician and chose a different way of trying to heal the wounds of her troubled country, Sri Lanka.
