Daily Mirror - Sri Lanka
|August 28, 2025
"GREATER LOVE HAS NO ONE THAN THIS, THAN TO LAY DOWN ONE'S LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS"- JESUS CHRIST [JOHN 15:13]
The 84th anniversary of the death of St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe—a Polish Franciscan priest who, during the Second World War, volunteered to die in place of a fellow prisoner, Franciszek Gajowniczek (a father of two, condemned to starve to death in the infamous “Death Bunker” at the Nazi concentration and extermination camp of Auschwitz), in order to save that prisoner’s life—fell on August 14, 2025.
St. Maximilian Kolbe was no stranger to Sri Lanka. During his missionary journeys to and from Japan, China and India, he visited the Island (then known as Ceylon) in 1930, 1932 and 1933.

CHANTAL KHOUEIRY CHIEF CULTURE OFFICER, THE BICESTER COLLECTION
I first met Chantal Khoueiry, Chief Culture Officer of The Bicester Collection, when I was invited to join the jury for the Unlock Her Future Prize 2025, which focused on South Asia. From that very first encounter, it was evident that Chantal is a leader who views culture not as a corporate formality but as a living force that shapes behaviour, inspires people and defines how a brand shows up in the world.
