Your Majesty,
It is with great sadness that I learnt of the passing away of King Fahd
bin Abdul Aziz, custodian of the two Holy Mosques & King of the
Kingdom

The Islamic and Arab world has lost an outstanding leader. The Late King
not only strengthened the dynamic progress of
Saudi Arabia, but also strove
ceaselessly for peace and security in the Middle East
and throughout the world. The people of
Sri Lanka
held His Majesty in high esteem as a dear friend and a firm supporter of
our country's national development.
At this time of great sorrow for the Kingdom
of Saudi Arabia. I extend to
your Majesty, the Government and the people of the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,
the bereaved royal family the deepest sympathies of the Government and
people of Sri Lanka
and my own profound condolences.
Please accept, Your Majesty, the assurances of my highest consideration.
Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga

Republic of
