More about Sri Lanka
Politics
According to the constitution that came into force on September 7, 1978 (last amended in 2015), Sri Lanka is a presidential republic in the Commonwealth. The constitution fixes fundamental rights and freedom of religion. The head of state, commander-in-chief of the armed forces and holder of the highest executive power is the president, who is directly elected for a period of 5 years (re-election possible once). He has extensive powers, appoints and dismisses the prime minister and has the right to dissolve parliament. The legislature rests with the National Assembly; 196 of the 225 MPs are elected and 29 are nominated via a “national list” (according to party proportion). The legislative period is 6 years; Active and passive voting rights apply from the age of 18.
National symbols
The national flag was adopted in 1951. The yellow flag shows in the brown field at the flying end a sword-bearing lion (symbol of the old kingdom of Kandy), in each corner of the field there is a yellow leaf of the so-called Bo tree, which is sacred to Buddhists. This part of the flag represents the Sinhalese majority population. On the leech, the flag has a green and an orange stripe for the Islamic and Tamil sections of the population.
The coat of arms was adopted after the introduction of the republic in 1972. It shows the lion of Kandy in gold within a blue circle in the red center, surrounded by a border of lotus petals and a protruding wreath of rice ears. The two wreaths are separated from each other by a blue circle. Below is a rice bowl as a symbol of prosperity and luck; to the heraldic left of the bowl the sun, to the right the moon, both Buddhist symbols of longevity; at the upper end of the overall picture the wheel of life (Dharmacakra).
