“In addition the Millennium IT connection with the London Stock Exchange too helped us to vote in favour of Sri Lanka for this project.”

“Since this is a knowledge-based business we expect the brain to reserve,” he said.
Exchanges Technology Executive Director Duminda Liyanawela said that this kind business was the key to the economic progress of Singapore and this investment would bring same results to Sri Lanka.
“We have obtained a two acre land on a 10 year lease from the government and would make a significant foreign direct investment for this operation.”
The officials also met Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe yesterday and said they were happy in the manner in which some of the issues were addressed.
“We will soon sign agreements with the Board of Investment and the Urban Development Authority.”
