Episode Synopsis

Member of the Federal Parliament in Nepal and Economist Dr. Swarnim Waglé commended measures taken by Sri Lankan authorities to engage bilaterally with countries outside the South Asian Region to gain preferential trade access.

During his visit in Sri Lanka, Dr. Waglé joined a discussion with Indeewari Amuwatte on the current affairs programme 'At HydePark’ on Ada Derana 24 where he outlined the importance for Sri Lanka to fulfil promises made to the International Monetary Fund under the Extended Fund facility programme.

He pointed out that adhering to IMF conditions will send out a clear sign to potential investors that Sri Lanka is deeply considering the implementation of crisis measures to bounce back.

He said that it is the duty of the leadership in the country to explain to the people why the IMF is consulted and the reason for implementing unpopular decisions.
