How are the decisions taken to build the tourism business in the country and the activities that are essential for the tourism business but cannot be implemented at this time?
This is more of a suggestion regarding higher education, specifically at the university level. The majority of university students aged 19-24 need to be more effectively utilised to contribute to the economy, which is a massive waste of the most supremely energetic human resources. Please propose and execute a suitable program so that university students can be directly involved with economic activities at the ground level. A broader discussion and good planning may be required to ensure security during their intervention. However, they can still be utilised formally to collect and digitalise databases and develop design and construction proposals for government development activities. Now, they are well-equipped with the latest technologies and global knowledge, so no one can argue they are not mature enough or lack knowledge on procedures (Surely they can be trained, which enriches their future careers too). Mark Zuckerberg invented Facebook at age...., find out. Thank you!
This is regarding the geopolitics While india is trying to build two large harbours to grab the naval hub from colombo to india they forced Sri Lanka not to have a economic relationship with China, This is totally unfair. When they built two naval hubs obviously they will have a good capacity to handle multiple ships and services, So in this part we should have a good connection with China and being a part of China's economic belt we can again create a big opportunity to Sri Lanka to attract ships and customers. Even in NPP government Naval is a main industry but we should have a proper geopolitical view on this how to deal and whom to deal. In maritime industry China is a must country. So my question is in this type of cases how to deal with india if they try to involve our internal sovereignty
What is your plan?
Please clarify your party’s stance on the current 300% tax and 18% VAT on imported vehicles. Specifically, do you plan to maintain, reform, or adjust these rates?
