Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki will be visiting Sri Lanka in January.

His visit coincides with a tour to Cambodia.

During these visits, Suzuki aims to address economic challenges and strengthen financial cooperation between Tokyo and the two nations. The finance minister is set to emphasize the critical need to advance debt restructuring efforts in Sri Lanka.

In July, Japanese Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi was in Sri Lanka in what was the first ministerial visit from Tokyo since 2019.
