So the govt is going to spend tax money to build an elaborate scheme of bureacracy and new regulations to just get rice on the table? Creating new avenues for corruption and expansion of public service.Why can't the govt just allow anyone with capital to import rice - එක පෑන් පාරින් as they said. If required apply tariffs as required on rice imports to regulate prices. That too in the short run. In the long run allow amalgamation of small scale agri lands into larger lands cultivated by companies or cooperatives. Technology  will automatically seep in with the capital that these big players have. In the longrun relax tariffs on imports let them compete on the market. Let the market decide.</blockquote>
