    Insider information tells us that the state-owned monopolistic enterprise, the CEB, will be broken into 10 to 12 companies, and shares will be sold to foreign investors (strategic business partners). :lol:

    Some companies will remain fully government-owned, yet they will be operated as private limited companies (Pvt. Ltd.). Let's see which country will dominate the power sector in Sri Lanka when an international dispute arises. Folks, do you remember what Russia did to us when Sirisena banned asbestos imports? Ah yes, they found a pest in Ceylon tea and proceeded to ban it altogether.

    So, when future Sri Lanka gets into an impossible situation between India, China, and the West, our sons and daughters, or our grandsons and granddaughters, will get to observe it in the dark.

    Also, selling state-owned enterprises to foreign investors helps bring prices down. That is a fact. Just as selling off fuel distribution to Sinopec brought oil prices down, it's assumed that selling off the CEB will surely bring electricity prices down. LMAO.

    I wonder what sections of the CEB they will keep 100% state owned, lol.

    Sri Lanka electricity sector reforms bill to be gazetted: හැමදාම reforms වලට විරුද්ධ මෝඩ ජෙපි සාපේ අඬයි​


    ECONOMYNEXT – Sri Lanka’s Attorney General has issued certification to proceed with the new draft bill on electricity sector reforms, Power and Energy Minister Kanchana Wijesekera said.

    “Accordingly the new electricity reforms bill will be gazetted in the next two weeks and presented to the Parliament during the last week of April,” Wijesekera said on social media platform X (twitter.)

    A progress review of the electricity sector reforms was held at the Ministry of Power and Energy with officials of the Reforms Secretariat Wijesekera said.

    “Suggestions and issues raised by the development agencies and stakeholders were incorporated as amendments to the draft bill that was gazetted in December by the Legal Draftsman’s office and the inconsistencies in the Sinhala and Tamil translations were also fixed.”

    Stakeholders, or any interested individuals, will have at least two weeks to review the gazetted bill, and two more weeks from the day of presenting it to Parliament to challenge the bill’s legality.

    Once approved by the parliament, the new Electricity Act will enable the unbundling of CEB services, restructure CEB, improve efficiency, transparency and accountability and will allow private sector participation across generation, transmission and distribution.

    A condition of the IMF program is reform of state-owned enterprises, including the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB). (Colombo/Mar29/2024)
