This was a great honour bestowed by the Oxford Union on only 15 others in its 183 year history........................ Mr Kadirgamar had this to say about that event;.........................'......I would like to, if I may, to assume that I could share the honour with the people of my country, Sri Lanka . I had my schooling there, my first university was there, I went to Law College there and by the time I came to Oxford as a postgraduate student, well, I was relatively a matured person. Oxford was the icing on the cake … but the cake was baked at home ......(applause) .'<a href="http://www.facebook.com/note_redirect.php?note_id=89114384845&h=0ef246e56e97e5ea579513c2b0972559&url=http://www.facebook.com" target="_blank">Lakshman Kadirgamar</a>  This is indeed true. People appreciate only the icing on the cake not where it was baked first.Please don't forget your motherland! </blockquote>
