¶ 01 (b) (i) The ten key sectors, not in priority order, are: human resource development (education and health), modern agriculture, energy, digitalization, tourism, information technology, fisheries and ocean resources, transport, micro/small/medium industries, and culture/environmental conservation. We underpin all with the “Clean Sri Lanka” initiative. (ii) and (iii) Projections are based on recent trends, incentives, improved investment climate, and policy consistency. For domestic investment, a projection of USD 879 million for 2025 has been made, with emphasis on improving ease of doing business, a level playing field, and a conducive environment under our economic development plan. For FDI, while past efforts have not yielded sufficient inflows, we target at least USD 2 billion per year up to 2034, prioritizing technology attraction and even projects where we cannot fully supply capital. We are also addressing grey-list issues on anti-money laundering/CTF to improve the environment. A detailed answer with tables is tabled.

¶ 02 Answer tabled.
