The Cabinet of Ministers at their meeting on Monday (3) approved the adoption of the ‘Pohosath Ratak – Lassana Jeewithayak’ (A Wealthy Country – A Beautiful Life) policy statement as the Government’s policy framework.
The policy declaration was presented with the aspiration of sustainable economic growth and development, with the aim of a GDP of $ 120 billion face value in 2030 through a strong production economy.
According to the Government, it is categorised under four main sectors representing all spheres including the economic, social, environmental, and political strata:
A Holistic Life – A Comfortable Country
A Respectable Life – A Secure Country
A Modern Life – A Wealthy Country
A Dignified Life – A Steady Country
Under these four categories, 40 sub-sectors have been recognised, while policies, concepts, and actions have also been identified regarding those sectors.
The submission also calls to plan and implement all activities accordingly by all Ministries, Departments, State institutions, Provincial Councils, and Local Government institutions.
The proposal to this effect, submitted by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake in his capacity as the Finance, Planning and Economic Development Minister, was approved unanimously by the Cabinet of Ministers.
