BMICH has a unique affiliation with women, with two of Sri Lanka’s leading personalities – the late Mrs. Sirimavo Bandaranaike being the first female Prime Minister of Sri Lanka, and globally, and who was also the founding Chairperson of the BMICH, and former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga, the first female Executive President of Sri Lanka, who is the current Chairperson of the BMICH Board of Management, both being of iconic significance to our country, as well as globally.’

Chairperson of the Bandaranaike National Memorial Foundation and former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga addressed the female staff of the BMICH/BCIS at a special felicitation luncheon at the Sapphire Banquet Hall and thanked them for their exceptional performance during the past year which helped the BMICH be profitable in a challenging and negative business environment, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
