Sri Lanka will export `Thriposha' soon. Sri Lanka produces 94 percent of the country's entire Thriposha requirement. It will be increased up to 100 percent by the middle of this year, a Health Ministry spokesman said.

The spokesman said the World Food Program (WFP) provided a modern machinery to the Thriposha manufacturing factory. "This new machinery significantly increased the factory's production capacity. The factory produces 94 percent of the country's entire Thiriposha requirement. This will be further increased up to 100 percent by June this year," he said.
