Sri Lanka's Political Turning Point: A Snap Election's Impact on Economic Recovery
Sri Lanka's snap general election could expand President Anura Kumara Dissanayake's legislative power amid economic recovery efforts. The election will decide if his leftist coalition can secure a parliamentary majority to implement key reforms.
Why Sri Lanka’s parliamentary election today matters for its future
In the past four years, the share of people living below the poverty line in Sri Lanka has risen to 25.9 per cent. The World Bank forecasts the economy to grow by just 2.2 per cent in 2024.
