after living in Sri Lanka for last five years i would like to share my understanding about the foreign investment opputunity in Sri Lanka.
the Civil War has ended and it gives immense opportunity for the Sri Lankans to word hard to take the country forward and most people are enthusiast in doing that. for foreigners point of view Sri Lanka is an island with beautiful beaches all around the country and also the hill stations and the national parks. so there is pretty much for foreigners to get attracted to visit Sri Lanka.
from the business(foreign Investment) point of view also the BOI Sri Lanka offers equal right to foreigners to come and invest in Sri Lanka with providing tax holidays and other facilities. the rad tape exists but it is at low level. Government of Sri Lanka is going for infrastructure development like highway building. there are many natural harbors like trincomalle, hambantoda etc. other than Colombo Port.
people are very friendly and co operative. and they like the foreigners to visit Sri Lanka.
Economic development potential is very high and government is also focusing on investment after the war has ended.
thanks,
