An interview with Dr Karunasena Kodituwakku-
There were huge losses made by the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation through disasters such as the hedging deal. Now they have to recover all the losses. But the question is whether it is reasonable to pass that burden to the consumer. There is a stable income from the sale of petroleum. You have to target items like that for the government to get a stable income. But the tax must be reasonable.
