Sri Lanka tourism prepares for more arrivals

Bids for 10 islands at Kalpitiya as tourist resorts are being evaluated, a weekly meeting brings all state agencies together to speed up tourism-related project approvals and major changes soon to the Tourism Act 2005 to revert back to a single state tourism agency are gradually putting Sri Lanka back on the global travel map.

Court permits sale of Entrust Ltd

The Supreme Court has permitted the sale of Entrust Ltd, formally known as Ceylinco Shriram Securities Holding Ltd, to pay off monies owed to Ceylinco Shriram depositors. The 3-judge bench headed by Justice Shirani Thilakawardane allowed a plea by the petitioners (depositors) to find prospective buyers for the company when the Ceylinco Shriram fundamental rights case came before the Supreme Court, a week ago.
