COLOMBO -- Sri Lanka hopes to conclude discussions with China "soon" on a $4 billion aid package, the bankrupt South Asian country's ambassador to Beijing told Nikkei Asia.
Ambassador Palitha Kohona said in an email that talks were progressing. "We hope that these discussions could be concluded soon, as a positive outcome would definitely assist Sri Lanka to reestablish confidence in the financial markets and recover from its unprecedented and dire financial circumstances."
