Birthday Tribute
Don Gunasena Athukorala:
I would like to pay tribute to Don Gunasena Athukorala for his contribution to Sri Lanka’s civil engineering profession as an early practitioner, setting high standards for engineers technically and ethically.
Don Gunasena was one of the pioneering engineers who joined the State Engineering Corporation (SEC) at its formation in January 1962. He soon rose to become deputy to the eminent A.N.S. Kulasinghe, founding chairman and general manager. Together with other engineers, the Kulasinghe-Athukorala duo grew the Corporation to become the most admired employer-of-choice for aspiring young engineers. Don Gunasena went on to become chairman of the SEC himself. He was also the founding Director of the Headworks division of the Mahaweli Authority of Sri Lanka.
