Minister of External Affairs promotes business as a bridge between Australia and Sri Lanka

Hon. Minister Professor G.L. Peiris stated that currently Sri Lanka’s main strength is her political stability, which has led to greater investor confidence. In addition, the island’s strategic location in the Indian Ocean is an important consideration today, just as it was in ancient times. He affirmed that Sri Lanka’s Free Trade Agreements with India and Pakistan have made the country as the gateway to South Asia for investors. Further he added that Australian entrepreneurs, who would invest in Sri Lanka, would be able to export their goods duty free to the rapidly growing Indian consumer market as well as that of Pakistan.
