Last update: 11 hours ago

Foreign Capital & Markets: Foreign investors kept selling Sri Lanka government securities even after the Central Bank’s May 26 rate hike, with net outflows of Rs. 4,768m in the week to June 4, adding pressure as the rupee weakens and inflation worries grow. PTA Detention Scrutiny: The Human Rights Commission has ordered CID officers to appear this week over the welfare and treatment of former SIS chief Suresh Sallay, amid claims of serious health decline and alleged ill-treatment. Elderly Safety Crisis: A wave of concern follows the deadly nursing home fire that killed 12 elderly residents, with renewed calls for proper registration, oversight, and real protection for seniors living alone. Health Access: A heart-care complaint highlights long waits for angiograms in Colombo, raising fears that “free” care is not truly timely for patients. Cricket—Sri Lanka in the Caribbean: Sri Lanka clinched an ODI series win in West Indies after the third ODI was abandoned due to rain, making it their first ODI series victory in the Caribbean since 2003. Cricket—T20I Squad: West Indies named a 15-man T20I squad for the series vs Sri Lanka, adding Jewel Andrew, Ackeem Auguste and Shamar Springer, with Shai Hope to lead. Tri-Series Focus: India A and Sri Lanka A kick off their tri-nation ODI series in Sri Lanka today, with 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi again in the spotlight.
