The govt. should reduce the subsidy on agriculture and invest in other fields such as secondary manufacturing and tertiary.I agree agriculture is a strategic industry, but the market has to be opened up and competition has to increase with the inflow of imported food, where conventional farmers should switch to extensive methods whereby being able to achieve economies of scale.Foreign direct investment should be fully encouraged and Sri Lanka should be portrayed as a business heaven like Doha or Bahrain. For the people who say taht foreign investment will result in money (proft) going out of the country, the net result is that employment will increase significanlty and so will total revenue and foriegn currency inflow. We need a kick start here.EDIT: oh crap. i re-read the thread and it says what can WE do as citizens. well ofcourse the above mentioned cannot be done by us but the govt.To replt to the topic I say we could promote our country via the internet and open up to opportunity. Maybe more people could improvise on this idea. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
