CMI evening meeting:

'New horizons for Sri Lankan economy'

The CMI evening meeting titled "New Horizons for the Sri Lankan Economy" will be an evening presentation at Galle Face Hotel and will be open to members of CMI and their guests.

The Secretary to the Treasury Dr.P.B. Jayasundera will speak on the opportunities that will become available for Sri Lankans to broaden the horizons of the economy, at a meeting arranged by the Sri Lanka Branch of the Chartered Management Institute UK, (CMI) on November 10 at the Galle Face Hotel.

Sri Lanka had to suffer the ruthless atrocities of the most brutal terrorist outfit the world has known, for the past three decades and it required the concerted effort of our valiant soldiers to overcome this horrendous problem.

With that dark period of terror now firmly behind us, it is time for all of us, to contribute towards building a better country for our future generations to live in peace and harmony with economic prosperity.

For the first time in almost 30 years, the country is free from the risk of war and i s ready to take off and gain from the advantage of the revival of the global economy with the foundation for infrastructure development already having been laid even while the war was on.

With vast areas of land that was not even approachable for well over two decades, now being available for development activities, Sri Lanka can look forward to expanding her horizons to become a major economic force in the region.
