Sri Lanka: New Government, New Hope

Sri Lanka's political future appears clearer and hopefully more promising after Anura Kumara Dissanayake won last month's presidential election, the first candidate not connected to a political dynasty. Dr Ahilan Kadirgamar, a political economist and senior lecturer at the University of Jaffna, shares his take on how a Dissanayake administration might address the current economic state the country is experiencing after it declared bankruptcy in 2022.
