This includes what you say about offices being established outside Colombo for public's convenience, and langama pasala is hondama pasala concept. However, I know through experience that popular (established) schools and schools with an 'English speaking background' will always be more in demand than the others, irrespective of the facilities offered in both schools. The reason why I say this is that the Old Boys (or Girls) of those popular schools are more established in the society in comparison to the Old Boys of other schools. One major advantage of this comes when the child begins his search for employment. Most often an applicant coming from an 'anglicised school' will succeed over a more qualified another person due to his school background or due to maybe a connection that one of the members of the interview board has with the applicant's school. This is the ground reality as I see it.And for more successful decentralisation, there are many developed countries that we can take as examples. The bottom line is to find financing.</blockquote>
