A press release issued by the Economic Reforms, Science and Technology Ministry said Minister Moragoda during his meetings discussed the European Union's role as the fourth Co-Chair at the Tokyo Conference and the proposed agenda at the conference. Last week the European Union announced its decision to become a Co-Chair along with the United States, Japan and Norway. The importance of the conference lies behind the far reaching aid that it is hoped will be offered in rebuilding Sri Lanka after a damaging twenty year war. The aid offered will be largely to help re-build economy across the whole island. |
