The Legacy Leadership Since 2017
The strength of any great movement lies in its foundation. On the 19th of October 2017, a vision was born to redefine the dignity and rights of the professional renting and taxi sector in Sri Lanka. What you see here is the leadership that stood firm when the first seeds were sown. These are the pioneers who have navigated through nearly a decade of challenges, dedicating their time, effort, and unwavering commitment to protect the interests of our members.
From that historic day in 2017 to the present, these individuals have been the backbone of AIAPRTD. Their journey is not merely defined by titles, but by the sacrifices made to ensure justice and professionalism within the industry. We honor their resilience and their role as the architects of our success, guiding us from our humble beginnings toward a future of collective prosperity.
