Government Debt in Sri Lanka increased to 12874786 LKR Million in the third quarter of 2019 . Over the past decade Sri Lankan government debt has increased drastically due to various reasons.
Here We arranged few data to understand the “Height of the Debt” in Sri Lanka.
First We assumed Debt value as 12000000000000 Rs.
When it Convert in to Highest value Banknote of Sri Lanka (5000 Rs) Value is 2400000000 No of Notes.
Let's Consider Height of 100 Notes is 1cm, ( It is the common value for most of Banknotes in the world) We need 240000m of 5000 Rs Notes stacks.
Let’s find out how large is this value when it compare with the highest building in Sri Lanka, highest building in the World and the highest Mountain in the world.
Special thanks to Mr. Pandula Nayana Bandara for this brilliant idea.
