The Urban Development Authority (UDA) is to conduct a feasibility study with a view of revisiting the project undertaken by former President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunga to relocate the President’s House to Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte, an official said.
UDA Director General Prasad Ranaweera told Daily Mirror that a feasibility study will be done shortly to relocate the President’s House or Janadipathi Mandiraya to a place near the Parliamentary complex in Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte
“We will be conducting a feasibility study on relocating Janadipathi Mandiraya at Sandun Uyana near Parliamentary complex with a view of revisiting the project undertaken during the tenure of former President Chandrika Kumaratunga way back in 1996. We will see whether it is possible to implement the project once again,” he said.
The project was initiated during the tenure of Ms. Kumaratunga in 1999 and the work actually began in 2000. Also Late President J. R. Jayewardene initiated a master plan to relocate all administrative offices to Jayewardenepura and to convert Colombo into a complete commercial capital. (Yohan Perera)

Another waste of public money....

The reason, Chandrika Kumaratunga planned to relocate the house had been that she had never wished to reside the place where, lower cast (Padhu) Ranasinghe Premadasa lived.

Exploring the possibility of a new avenue to refill the pockets of corrupt govt. Via bribe, commissions etc. while vital public n private constructions are at a standstill.

The idea is good. But careful consideration must be made on the "ROI" now.
