Eight Companies willing to take over our two airlines


State enterprise development deputy Minister Eran Wickremaratne had this to say at a media conference held at the Siri Kotha UNP headquarters on the 31st:-

" When we cannot run one airline service could we run two airline services? Both are loss making institutions.Hence the question I need to ask why these were run incurring loses spending the money of our tax payers.They had run these for corruption and theft.Hence we had come to two decisions.One is to amalgamate the Sri Lankan airlines and the Mihin Lanka airline.

The second decision we arrived was  that Sri Lanka airlines need capital to run.Hence we had advertised that anyone interested could invest capital and manage the administration function of the airlines.Now the process of amalgamation is been performed..It is reported by the BOI that eight companies have agreed to take over."
