COLOMBO (Daily Mirror) - With the presentation of the 2024 budget, President Ranil Wickremesinghe has brought Sri Lanka out of the dark ages to some extent, but it is not an easy journey, former Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake said.
Addressing the media, he said the President will show a leadership programme that can bring this budget out of difficulties.
"At this time, we all should work as a team. He is working to rebuild the fallen economy. He is not the one who bankrupted this country, so coming out of this economic recession is not an easy task. At this time, the best thing is to create creativity that can reduce costs and generate income," he said.
"What needs to be done is to strengthen the export economy. Whoever crashed the country's economy, we had to go to the International Monetary Fund because of that, but we have to come out of it and practically do not have to bend to everything that the International Monetary Fund says," the former Minister said.
