it has not demonstrated commitment to policies that promote 'political and economic freedom, investments in education and health care, control of corruption, and respect for civil liberties and the rule of law.Sri Lanka was eligible for MCC funding in 2007.
That is why.......... |

Despite our differences in opinion, can you please let me know what kind of watersports you are into and whether you are in industrial fishing. Don't get me wrong.

Southerners are the real Sri Lankans with good hospitality :):)
Kankun macho... unless you were joking don't think this is correct :)
In my many adventures out of town...i've met such great people from all over SL... And some people's hospitality is just unbeleivable...
I've been lucky enough to experience that so many times, it will take days to put it onto words |

Thanks a lot. I am not into yet. But there is huge potential to make more greenback if you know the art and the trade. We can work out something. How can we get into a personal contact??

I know one guy at the anglers club... A Bolling :)
The sportsfishing club and trinco anglers club are pretty useless if you ask me... they do very little to promote the sport sadly...
Don't go for tournments and stuff. Just a few cold beers and lotsa hope for a catch..
RK...
I'm not into Commercial fishing mate. That's another world supposedly under the claws of the 'fishermen mafia'
One of my buddies tried to get into Tuna business and though he was a powerful man in colombo circles wasn't powerful enough to handle the mafia and had to drop his plans.
Luckily SPort fishing is left alone...so far.
Only gripe is the naval restrictions on a max of 25hp per boat and prior permission from them to head out |

So cutting down funds by US will have at least a small effect as I guess.
Herd of sour grapes?
Looks like the begging fields are shrinking.........no
