Slowing tea and textile exports have depleted the country's foreign currency reserves and undermined the Sri Lankan rupee.IMF support would "supplement the government's efforts to stabilize the external sector performance of the country, and enable the country to face the times ahead with greater confidence and certainty," the bank said in a statement.  The government expects to finalize the IMF negotiations by the end of March, and a significant portion of the loan would be released soon after that, it said.<a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2009/03/04/business/AS-Sri-Lanka-IMF.php" target="_blank">IHT</a><a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2009/03/04/business/AS-Sri-Lanka-IMF.php" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2009/03/04/business/AS-Sri-Lanka-IMF.php" target="_blank"></a>sudda gen nayata salli gan nawa <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/shocked.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":shocked:" title="Shocked    :shocked:" data-shortname=":shocked:" />NGO <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/shocked.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":shocked:" title="Shocked    :shocked:" data-shortname=":shocked:" /> what will JVP, JHU say ? <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/lol.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="LOL    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/lol.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="LOL    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /><img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/lol.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="LOL    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />hela urumaya ? <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/shocked.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":shocked:" title="Shocked    :shocked:" data-shortname=":shocked:" /></blockquote>
