The delegation was headed by Naeem Aslam, the Dean of the school.  The visit by this delegation to Sri Lanka was to build up to stronger ties with Sri Lankan state institutions and exchange views and knowledge in the areas of the public policy.  


The visit to the BOI was an opportunity for the senior officials from Pakistan to understand better Sri Lanka’s investmentclimate and policies and the status of investments in the country.  Altogether 11 officials from Pakistan visited the BOI, drawn from a wide range of institutions such as the civil service, foreign ministry, customs and police departments and other institutions.  They were briefedat the BOI by Nilupul De Silva, Director (Promotion) and Dilip Samarasinghe, Director (Media & Publicity).
