Of course, Sri Lanka has a Coast Guard. It comes under the purview of the Ministry of Defense and is staffed by civilian personnel. However, many tasks are taken over by the Navy, which should be changed.

Sri Lanka has become a hive of activity for foreign dignitaries courtesy future interests for them.
