As Sri Lanka's protest movement reaches 100 days, the people proudly and defiantly said that their fight is not over. Indeed, in addition to political uncertainty, the country faces a long list of problems, with years of mismanagement coupled with external shocks.

Finally, we take a look at a few activists and how they managed to breathe fresh life into the protest movement in Sri Lanka.
