Economic policy strategies that suit Sri Lanka

A book in Sinhala, ‘Apata Gelepena Aarthika Kramaveda’ or ‘Economic Policy Strategies that Suit us Sri Lankans,’ by Rohan Samarajiva and C.J. Amarathunga was released in Colombo last week.

Why should one consider this book-launch an important event? That is because it has been written by a pragmatic economic policy thinker and a versatile Sinhala writer for the benefit of the laymen wishing to know of the ‘less-known other side of economic policy making’ in Sri Lanka.
