Asela Jayampathy :I am a regular customer at this supermarket, where I purchase ingredients for Chinese cuisine. If the CAA adopts an excessively heavy-handed approach, it could result in the closure of this business and drive yet another small foreign investor out of Sri Lanka.
Enforcement of the law is necessary, but we must also recognize that our reputation as a welcoming destination for foreign investment remains poor. Let us not forget that one of the world's fastest-growing consumer markets and a significant source of potential investment is China.
I hope the learned Magistrate delivers a fair and balanced judgment that upholds the law while also taking into account the broader economic implications.
