CHOGM is held every two years and is the Commonwealth’s highest
consultative and policy-making body. Commonwealth leaders agreed on Sri
Lanka as the 2013 host for the meeting when they met in Port of Spain,
Trinidad and Tobago, in 2009. They reaffirmed this decision at the 2011
CHOGM in Perth, Australia.
The President said: “As a committed member of the Commonwealth family,
Sri Lanka is pleased to be hosting CHOGM. The Commonwealth shares a
strong commitment to the twin pillars of democracy and development. We
look forward to welcoming all Commonwealth leaders and delegates to our
country for what I am confident will be a successful and mutually
beneficial summit in true Commonwealth spirit.”
