What these rich countries should be doing is to provide market access to Sri Lankan products at concessionary tax rate in their countries. Also, they should provide platforms to sell SL products to their citizens. By doing that Sri Lankan businesses can boom and with that, so does the SL economy. It is pointless to provide millions of Euros' worth of loans or grants as it would only repeat the vicious cycle of poverty,
