Founded on December 17 1909, the Dinamina (meaning 'daily gem', a reference to the sun) is a Sinhalese daily that claims the largest circulation among Sinhalese-speaking peoples in Sri Lanka. The newspaper was founded by the Sinhalese scholar H.S. Perera who acted as both owner and editor-in-chief of the paper at the outset. Upon Perera's death in December 1914, D.R. Wijewardene (who would later go on to become a prominent figure in the country's struggle for independence) bought out the company. It is now owned by the government of Sri Lanka, and is thus quite partisan.
