Country Spotlight:
Sri Lanka
While the political environment in Sri Lanka has changed, the key tenets
of the country strategy and program 2004-2008 (economic reform, governance,
and social development)—still hold, albeit with some qualifications.
The Government aims to increase the role of the state in promoting economic
growth. The new political environment has had some impact on planned and
ongoing projects. For example, ADB has adjusted the design for the Financial
Markets Program for Private Sector Development, which now supports the
restructuring of the People’s Bank without privatizing it.
