Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 The first answer is evasive; let me ask my second. You said entities like SriLankan Airlines incurred losses due to opaque governance. Under your IMF Agreement, will loss‑making SOEs be commercialized or privatized, or will the Government retain them and absorb losses? Please state clearly your future course.
