    Being an immigrant for almost 40 years, I salute you, Dr.Sugi. Your appearance and demonstration of the national dress code on the international stage were excellent. I appreciate the way you clearly articulated your points. Unfortunately, a country like Sri Lanka is not in a fortunate position to benefit from individuals like you.

    Thanks Sugi, for picking up the topic about all of us immigrants. Survival as an immigrant was a tedious task and mental health support was unheard when I first came here.The idea of a Resilient Board is a sure thing to implement. You are discussing real situations and I am so proud of your great work.

    This is important information that shows how immigrants make our country thrive.

    Great research and as an immigrant I agree that our brain is already immune and has been in survival mode since birth due to poverty and social injustice in our birth country. Hence the challenges that we face in US are minimal and we thrive in a just society where everyone is equal and has the same opportunity.

    Proud about you akka (Dr Sugi) ❤ You have done great job in international flat form when Sri Lanka is facing terrible time period with the economic crisis.
    Dress is not important to show your talent. But our traditional dress code also represents our country. You represented whole SRI LANKAN FAMILY with this great achievement. Wishing for going ahead…..💗💗💗💗👍🏻👍🏻

    Well done Dr. Sugi and so proud of your achievement.
    Thank you for making a voice about much needed topic. 🙏
    As a migrant myself I strongly see the need of a different perspective towards mental health issues within migrant community with cultural differences.
    Thank you 😍

    Thoroughly enjoyed this talk.
    The main reason for my successful acculturation is that California is a melting pot and we see many people who look like us everywhere including others that immigrated from SL. Another important factor is that ethnic food items are freely available in many stores close by.
    The hopes of a new start helps you leave behind the negative aspects of your previous life, and the will to do well for yourself and your dependents kicks in. Even if there’s a negative factor in the short run, our resilience helps us overcome these challenges.
