Investments will flow into Sri Lanka after polls: CBK

Chandrika-Bandaranayake-Kumaratunge

June 16, 2015 (LBO) – Investors are waiting for the upcoming election to finish in order to bring in new projects to Sri Lanka, former President Chandrika Bandaranayake Kumaratunge said.

“We need to bring in investments and now the investors are ready to come,” she said at a recent media conference. “Because they know that the polls are impending they have come and had the necessary discussions and put everything in place but will come only post election.

” Kumaratunge says that she had met several European investors in the past few years that had been keen to start projects in the Island but had faced difficulty during the Rajapaksa rule. “I can tell you especially big European investors who had come and had discussions with the Board of Investment and were very keen to set up here but the only issue they had was that everyone wanted a commission,” “Not one but all the departments and the politicians, some time they said the whole family wanted commissions,” Now she says this issue is not there so they are all ready and waiting to invest. Sri Lanka’s new 100 day administration took a back seat in setting a foreign direct investment goal for 2015 after authorities failed to meet their targets in the recent past. In 2014 FDI increased by 9.2 per cent from 84 million US dollars to one billion US dollars according to statistics from the Central Bank’s annual report while FDI in 2013 declined by 2.7 per cent from a year earlier to 916 million US dollars. According to investments advisors, Sri Lanka’s policy inconsistency is unhealthy for foreign investments and the mini budget 2015 also did not sent the right signals to the FDI community.

Hmm then why did not a single investor come when you ruled the country? Did you ask for commissions too?

See who is talking about commissions and corruption?
Sri Lanka is today a joke with various “war lords” pulling in different directions and that is why FDIs have come to a halt.
We need the help of Saman Deviyo to protect the country from these politicians controlled by foreign forces.

We don’t need POLITICAL investors who are more interested in “controlling and exploiting” the country at the expense of everyone else – we need ALL WEATHER INVESTORS like the Chinese that are there for Sri Lanka no matter what.

Let’s give some credit to the lady. Without her we may still have been subjects of an evil despot.

That said, I don’t see why anyone would be interested in investing in Sri Lanka when the government ministers are of such low caliber, and almost all political appointments are people who couldn’t even get a decent job if they were living in a 1st world country.

BOI Chair – UPUL J – enough said, what a joker.

Let’s not. After all, she ruined the country and the system for 11 years before she was kicked out. She in fact investigated whether she could stay on for at least one more year before that happened. Those 11 years were perhaps the most abject period of country’s economy. It was a time, lies became legal and friends of politicians became the power.
If previous regime is to blame for anything, she is responsible for handing over the country to them in such a pathetic state. Anyway, speaking of today, this is no different to CBK era. The education minister has perhaps not gone to school beyond Grade 3. Whatever he says has a political connotation, never a good intention for the betterment of country’s education. It’s disgraceful the lot from FUTA who made such a hoo-haa before the election to bring this lot have nothing to say now when the education has become a pet project an uneducated minor. About investors, yea right, they are on their way, but hang on, why didn’t they come when the lady was in office? She still believes that the average voter is a toilet paper. He can be used in the election and flushed out afterwards.

CBK did suffer from the same basic problem Ranil does, that is appointing incompetent people to high positions. However like Ranil she is a decent character. That basic decency was lacking in MR regime and I don’t care what they did for the country, it would never be enough for me to want to live under suppression.

She is a decent woman who deserves some credit and respect.

Yo chaura regina! Did the blast from that bomb that affected your eye give you amnesia?? Saying you don’t know Sri Lanka?? Did you also forget who your daughter is married to?? That tamil diaspora LTTE. There’s the truth Sri Lankans. Why do you listen to your son-in-law? What can he do? Why are you trying to attack the last King, Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksa? If you plan on staying in Sri Lanka, get your passport ready so you can leave our country when people start looking for you………… Leave but do not bring any enemy into Sri Lanka. Crazy drunken woman… you want to ruin a country? Do it somewhere else, but not Sri Lanka. People don’t have the time to deal with you and your stupidity…..
