The Government of Japan granted Japanese Yen 200 million (approximately Rs. 240 million) to the Government of Sri Lanka for procuring a variety of essential SME products manufactured in Japan, aimed at meeting the development needs in various social and economic sectors of Sri Lanka. The range of products provided under the ‘Non-Project Grant Aid for Provision of Japanese SMEs’ Products (2014)’ scheme was selected by the Government of Sri Lanka in consultation with the line agencies concerned. In March 2012 too, Japan provided Rs. 200 million under the same grant scheme to procure machinery and apparatus and electrical and electronic equipment for use by the health sector of Sri Lanka. The people and the Government of Japan hope that the products provided will be utilised very effectively for the benefit of the needy people of Sri Lanka. The signing of the Exchange of Notes took place yesterday between Ambassador of Japan to Sri Lanka Nobuhito Hobo and Ministry of Finance and Planning Secretary Dr. P.B. Jayasundera at the Ministry.
