China–Sri Lanka Economic Relations
This article fills a gap in the literature by focusing on the growing economic links between China and Sri Lanka. Starting from the 1952 Rubber-Rice Pact, the economic relations between the two countries have grown over the years with an unprecedented growth since 2005. Chinese military assistance helped overcome three decades of conflict in North/East Sri Lanka and Chinese financial assistance to other areas of the Sri Lankan economy, in particu…

Ready-made Garment Exports from Sri Lanka
With the phasing out of the Multi-Fibre Arrangement (MFA), the Sri Lankan economy, highly dependent on ready-made garment exports, has become vulnerable to the changing global trading system affecting this industry. In such a global environment, strengthening the competitiveness of the industry has become imperative for Sri Lanka if it is to remain as one of the suppliers of choice in major markets. The paper highlights the strengths and weakness…
The Bilateral Track
The India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ISLFTA) shows how bilateral cooperation can lead the way for regional cooperation. In operation, it has led to the rapid growth and diversification of Sri Lanka's exports to and imports from India. India's investment in Sri Lanka has also increased; India is now the second largest investor in Sri Lanka; and service sector cooperation has followed the growth of trade and investment. There were problems alo…

This dividend can in turn be used to raise popular support for conflict-resolution measures along the road to achieving a final political settlement, a strategy that characterizes the recent period in Sri Lanka. However, despite an increase in economic growth following the cessation of hostilities between the LTTE and the government, no substan…

Open Regionalism in the Indian Ocean
The Indian Ocean Rim Association of Regional Cooperation (IORARC) came into being in 1997. It is experimenting with open regionalism for strengthening economic integration in the region. The paper examines the concept of open regionalism as practiced in APEC and its validity for IORARC given the initial conditions in the region and the level of development of the member nations. The paper argues that the APEC model has little relevance for IOR-AR…

The political economy of agricultural trade policy
The Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture (URAA) laid a firm foundation for establishing a rule‐based world trading system, encompassing both developed and developing countries, for agricultural products. This paper aims to broaden our understanding about the constraints faced by developing countries in their attempts to comply with new URAA rules through a comparative case study of Sri Lanka in the South Asian context. We find Sri Lanka's polic…
