Expatriates urged to return

The Government today urged expatriate Sri Lankans from all communities to return to Sri Lanka now that the country has overcome the problems it faced in the past and is poised for rapid and equitable growth.
Speaking at the ‘Work in Sri Lanka Conference 2013’ at the Taj Samudra hotel today, the Secretary of Defence and Urban Development Gotabhaya Rajapaksa said the Government is very keen on creating an environment conducive for knowledge workers and other professionals to live and work in Sri Lanka.
