Sri Lanka is bankrupt

Samagi Jana Balawega MP Ashoka Abeysinghe states that the income of the country is not sufficient for the loan instalments.

Therefore, the country is now bankrupt, he said. As a result, an institution called Selandiva has been set up to sell all lands in Colombo, he said.

However, he hopes to earn as little as $ 400 million through this. He made these comments at a media briefing held at the office of the Leader of the Opposition.
