Even when the Executive co-operated with the govt over the past years nothing was achieved. UNF had to show simple majority with the help of opposition based on conditions. MS is not going to appoint RW as PM and even it happens the duration of parliament is going to be for 14 months only. During which period RW has to deliver on promises given to TNA. He very well knows it cannot be delivered,but what possibly could happen is play for time and finally tell TNA:

 "Oh my dear friends Samba & Summa, i tried my utmost as you will know but sorry for now, but support me at the next elections so that i will be in a better footing to deliver what was promised".

ONE CAN TRUST A DEVIL BUT NOT A FOX!!!

Before court decision Maharaja predicted 5500 / 6500 depending on decision.

Now without creating more problems, Mahinda must leave the seat.

So, your prediction is 5500. I guess it can dip further and remain sluggish till general election. No future for CSE until general election.

Opinion: After political respite, a quick pivot to Sri Lanka’s development priorities needed
Author LBO
Posted on December 14, 2018 | Economy, Economy & Markets, Lead Story, OpinionMaharaja's Advice - Page 23 Ganeshan-e1532723340186-800x515
Dr. Ganeshan Wignaraja joined the Lakshman Kadirgamar Institute in July 2017. He also serves as a member of the Task Force on the Freedom of Navigation in the Indian Ocean, chaired by the Hon. Prime Minister, and is a member of the Monetary Policy Consultative Committee of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka. He has a DPhil in economics from Oxford University, and a BSc in economics from the London School of Economics.


[size=14]What is Next for Middle-Income Asia and Sri Lanka?

By Dr. Ganeshan Wignaraja[size=11]*[/size]
Decades of sustained economic growth have left the Asia Pacific with few lower-income countries. Absolute poverty levels are and will continue to keep falling. This is cause for celebration. But it also requires a new partnership between countries and development institutions to tackle the challenges that arise as Asia becomes an upper middle-income continent. The narrative in Sri Lanka should shift from a costly domestic political crisis to a national debate on development priorities. 
Asia’s achievement
The scale of change in Asia is immense. In 1990, more than 80% of the world’s population living below the extreme poverty line (estimated at USD 1.90 per day, measured at purchasing power parity) were either in East Asia and the Pacific, or South Asia. Today that number is far smaller and getting smaller still. By 2030, just 0.1% of the population of East Asia is expected to live below the extreme poverty line. In South Asia, the figure will be only 2%
Put another way, half of the world’s population in 2025 will likely live in Asian middle-income countries. Today, almost all of the region’s nations already enjoy middle-income status. And more are moving beyond USD 4000 per capita income, signifying a shift from lower middle-income to upper middle-income status. By 2025, only Afghanistan and Nepal are expected to remain officially poor.
This progress is positive. Millions have been lifted out of extreme poverty over the past decade alone, with just as many now benefitting from improved education and health. But it also requires a rethink of the policy obstacles that Asian countries must now overcome, and the way in which they interact with bilateral and multilateral development institutions.
Middle income challenge
Middle-income status does not mean development gets suddenly easier. While Asia’s growth still outpaces global growth, it has slowed since the global financial crisis. This has led some to argue that Asia is facing a middle-income trap, where growth slows after reaching middle-income levels and the transition to high-income levels seems a distant prospect. Malaysia and Indonesia are often mentioned as examples. 
Equally worrying is that several middle-income Asian economies suffer from persistent pockets of poverty, while their people remain vulnerable to sudden changes in income. Some countries continue to confront fragile situations associated with long-term and often subnational conflict. Afghanistan has seen three decades of armed conflict between the government and the Taliban, while Myanmar is engulfed in a crisisinvolving the Rohingya people.1
Ageing populations are another challenge, particularly in China, South Korea and East Asia.2 This will translate into rising dependency ratios, increasing elderly care costs and probably higher taxation.
Moving nations out of extreme poverty also tells us little about the extent to which their people are vulnerable to falling backwards. This vulnerable group of people — those who hover precariously above the poverty line but do not advance quickly towards middle-class status — is expanding in Asia. In countries from India to Indonesia to the Philippines and Bangladesh, this category now covers hundreds of millions of citizens.
Although growth has lifted millions above the breadline, the quality of that growth has not always been pro-poor. Recent decades of growth have often exacerbated income inequality levels across Asia. Gini coefficients (a common measure of income equality) have declined in Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Papua New Guinea.3
Tackling these challenges requires different policies by governments in Asia, both to continue to push growth but also to make it more equitable. Improving innovation, tertiary and vocational education, digital infrastructure, financial access for small businesses, elderly care and pensions systems and institutions can help put Asia on the path to developed, high-income status. These policies should be tailored to individual national circumstances along with gradual opening up. The days of transplanting a one-size fits all development model – be it a Washington neo-liberal consensus or a Beijing consensus of an eclectic approach to free markets and a big role for state enterprise – are over. 
Questions for Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka aspires to become an upper-middle income economy. In 2019, however, country faces the prospect of tepid growth of 4% or thereabouts with rising inequality. Additionally, a debt to GDP ratio well in excess of 70% and downgrading of debt rating implies limited head room for raising public expenditure. This depressing domestic economic scenario could be complicated by unpredictable weather affecting agriculture, and political instability. Multiple global risks are also looming on the country’s horizon including escalating trade tensions between the US and China, capital outflows from emerging markets, and geopolitical tensions. 
Once the political dust settles, a national debate is needed to move on from the political crisis to a policy agenda for the next couple of years. Seven important questions come to mind.

[*]How does political uncertainty affect private investment and growth? 
[*]Do high debt service payments mean fiscal austerity? 
[*]How can lagging productivity be improved? 
[*]How might the digital economy take root? 
[*]Is rising inequality temporary or permanent? 
[*]How can the cost of living be reduced and development be spread outside Colombo? 
[*]What economic reforms are necessary? 
[/list]

Successful countries from Korea to Singapore have spent time finding answers to these issues and forging a national policy consensus for their economic development. Sri Lanka could productively follow suit.
New policies and donor role
Asia’s new middle-income era also poses questions for development institutions.4 Improved income status means Asia’s development finance landscape is quickly changing. As countries become wealthier the sources of finance and financial instruments available to them will change, as will the volumes of aid they receive and the conditions attached to it. Borrowing from international capital markets will become crucial, with rating agencies influencing the terms on which they can do so. 
Middle-income status is often considered a signal for a successful development trajectory — hence the rationale for development institutions to play a progressively smaller role. But development institutions should not move from an aid relationship with Asia to simply no relationship at all. 
Instead, they need to create a new and different kind of relationship, based at first on a mixture of aid and trade, and eventually trade and private investment alone — in the process finding new ways to help transform Asian nations whose development journeys are only at most mid-way complete.

191,000 buy order - JKH - is the only reason market crash is paused.
As soon as JKH selling begins there is no hope for ASPI

"It is called investor  confidence.."  Absolutely alien alien alien  
Bullish participation of institutional investors continued for the 2nd consecutive day; decline in CTC directed the Bourse to red terrain.

Hi members,

Source from the central bank - dollar will jump to 190 level soon with this new government.
reason - foreigners selling shares at cse and bond market due to non-functioning government. When Mahinda came we expected new $Bn worth of new FDIS from China but now nothing at all. Real growth in 2.6-2.8% region as the source tells. (not 3% published by government )

Maharaja Expect ASI to move towards 5500 region fast !!

Do we really need a government or a person to borrow money from other countries and run the economy??????????  Grow up Maharaja Mad Mad Mad Mad  we need a government/person who can take this country to a better place minimizing the debt and help sri lankan to come up.
The Public Debt Management Report released by the Auditor General has revealed that each Sri Lankan is burdened with a debt amount of Rs. 417,913 at the end of 2016.
This amount is an increase of the debt burden of each Sri Lankan the year before, which was Rs. 373,462.
The per capita debt of Sri Lanka was only Rs. 108,908 in 2005.
