I am honored and privileged to pen this Message as the President of KSM for the year 2025/26. At the same time, I feel humbled too, in joining a galaxy of my predecessors, who were giants in the field of medicine. They contributed immensely to the KSM since its inception in 1964, from being a local medical association to an internationally recognized medical association in Sri Lanka. This is the second oldest medical association, with international standing in its academic programmes, publishing its own Journal – The Sri Lanka Journal of Medicine. The KSM holds its annual academic sessions that include two main Orations and also a prestigious KSM Health Prize Oration at the foundation sessions. The objectives of our society are multifaceted, including the empowering of the health professionals in Sri Lanka, enhancing their knowledge and skills through continuous medical education, encouraging research in health care, thereby promoting innovation, and practice of evidence based medicine, contributing to the advancement of health care, fostering camaraderie among members and health professionals by organizing social gatherings and community based activities and also enhancing public awareness in health care by conducting seminars and workshops.
