Import restrictions lift for 400 products-by Nuwan Kodikara Source:Dailynews Finance State Minister Dr. Ranjith Siyambalapitiya yesterday said that import restrictions on 300 to 400 products will be lifted from next week. The State Minister made this announcement while speaking to the media after a ceremony.

As annoying and (now we know) completely unnecessary as those ...
JAYANTHA DHANAPALA (1938 – 2023)-by Tissa Jayatilaka Source:Island The splendid career and the many glittering prizes won by Jayantha Dhanapala is common knowledge and does not require reiteration here. Rather I wish to focus on the man himself in this tribute to an exceptional person whom I had the privilege of getting to know personally at the tail end of the 1980s – I had of course heard of Jayantha and his many accomplishments long before our first meeting. Having read a newspaper review of North-South Perspectives, an international affairs journal that I edited, which focused on the promotion of greater understanding between the ‘developed’ and the ‘developing’ world, Jayantha telephoned me to ask if we could meet. I readily agreed and thus began a friendship that lasted until his death a few days ago. Although I had not known at the time of that first meeting of ours, I soon ...
