It is not the govt which owns this hospital. I think it is owned by an Insurance fund. So the Insurance fund must make the decision based on financial factors, not based on political factors. I sense great level of dealmaking going on with these things………… i wonder if policyholder have any right to make sure their rights are not violated by political deal making.

54% of LHL is owned bY SLIC, which in turn is owned by GOSL. So simple fact is GOSL owns LHL!!!

this is actually a windfall for GOSL , becoz it was Harry J during his time of owning SLIC who invested in LHL. when GOSL forcibly took over the SLIC, they got ownership of many companies that were owned thru the SLIC (Life & General Funds).

The Insurance fund is one of those private companies that MR forcefully nationalized.

The current governments plan is to get rid of the State-owned Companies they don’t think are necersary and then re-organize the rest into a fund similar to Singapore’s Temaesk Holdings.

You should not be reading this website if you have such low knowledge of economics. That is a very far sighted decision. And they should sell the insurance corporation as well to increase productivity and competitive pricing so that Sri Lankan public benefits.

If Sri Lanka needs FDI and boost local economy do not sell Government owned enterprises to Hemas or any other local company. Sell them to foreign investors and companies.Reserves will increase , financial position of this country for debt repayment will increase , no need to print money. Dollar will come this way. Best decision to privatize local government owned companies and focus in core business in order to boost profits.

The Sri Lanka insurance corp holds majority stake in Lanka hospitals with Indias Fortis having 28% if I remember correct. The govt stake is effectively is the peoples share. Majority of Sri Lankans do not know to invest in equity in stock market. They do not understand the risks and rewards. Trading with knowledge and understanding gives inflation busting and consistent returns over the medium and long term. Sri Lankans should be educated about capital markets preferably in school curriculum from OL onwards
