Ranil Wickremesinghe is well known for his right wing, liberal economic policies[citation needed]. He relied on the support of Western governments and foreign investors[citation needed]. During his term as Prime Minister, he made some significant reforms to earn this[citation needed]. He emphasized in privatising government ventures and in cutting down the high public sector workforce[citation needed]. Ranil Wickremesinghe also stopped all recruitments to the public sector during his tenant[citation needed].
However, his policies set off a considerable recovery in the down falling country's economy. In 2002 he was able to secure a GDP growth rate of 4.0% which was -1.5% in the previous year. During the next two years of his tenant he attained the figures 5.9% and 5.4% respectively.[12] Also he was able to keep the inflation (annul percent increase) below 10%. [13] In December 2002 Ranil Wickremesinghe brought forward a solution package called Regaining Sri Lanka[14] as a Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) to reduce the poverty of the country and to gain debt reliefs.
Ceasefire Agreement (CFA)
Three months after the election Ranil Wickremesinghe's government entered into a ceasefire agreement (CFA) with LTTE. The agreement was signed on 22 February 2002 at different locations in the war zone by both parties and Norwegian Ambassador to Sri Lanka Jon Westborg acted as the facilitator.
It was said that the main objective of this agreement was to find a negotiated solution to the ongoing ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka.[20] Both parties agreed to halt all offensive military operations. An international monitoring mission called Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) was formed to enquire into any instance of violation of the terms and conditions of this agreement.
In the aftermath of signing CFA the island was deemed as a safe place once again, after decades of war. Specially tourism industry experienced a significant escalation where the number of tourists arrived to the country was suddenly increased.[21] The A9 Highway was reopened up to Kilinochchi on 15 February 2002 after 18 years. Many checkpoints and road blocks were removed in government controlled areas. He is a man with vision based on nonviolence of Buddhism.
After the Oslo round of peace talks in December 2003, a concluding statement was declared by the Norwegian facilitators which later became known as Oslo Declaration.[28] In this statement it was stated that "both parties have decided to explore a political solution founded on internal self-determination based on a federal structure within a united Sri Lanka". This was considered as one of the most significant incidents in the history of finding a political solution to the Ethnic Problem in Sri Lanka.
