  • Sri Lanka Ports Authority for the Year 2015
    Accelerating P SITIVE change SRI LANKA PORTS AUTHORITY | ANNUAL REPORT 2015 Sri Lanka Ports Authority. Tel: +94 112 42 12 31 / +94 112 42 12 01 No 19, Chaithya Road, Colombo 01. email: [email protected] ACCELERATING POSITIVE CHANGE The Sri Lanka Ports Authority operates several major commercial ports in Colombo, Galle, Hambantota, Trincomalee, Kankesanthurai, Oluvil and Point Pedro. Founded in 1979, the SLPA has grown to be a leader in the world of shipping and commerce, a respected organisation where governance, environmental responsibility and our commitment to the future of Sri Lanka and its people have guided our voyage of success. While our goal to create value for all our stakeholders remains a priority, we also pride ourselves on our commitment to national development, investing into local communities in a bid to enhance livelihoods and bring life’s opportunities to people, island-wide. We plan to continue our mission of value into the years ahead as we forge ahead, powering shipping, trade and industry, energizing people’s lives and accelerating positive change. The Port of Colombo has been administered since 1913 by the Colombo Port Commission, which is responsible for the supply and maintenance of cargo-handling equipment and other infrastructure, pilotage services, docking and shipping. The Sri Lanka Ports Authority was constituted under the provisions of the Sri Lanka Ports Authority Act, No. 15 of 1979 (subsequently amended by Act No. 7 of 1984 and Act No. 35 of 1984) on the 1st of August 1979, effecting the merger of the Colombo Port Commission Department and the two existing statutory Corporations.

(For project preparatory technical assistance: All the views expressed herein may not be incorporated into the proposed project’s design. Figure 8-16 Warehouse Logistics Process Three main flows can be identified: • Incoming flow: products or goods discharged from a truck or unloaded from a container. • Warehousing cargo flow: storage of the palletised goods within the warehouse and – if applicable – registration/follow-up of additional value added activities like re-packing, labelling, price-marking, etc. • Outgoing flow: products or goods leaving the warehouse via truck or loaded into a container. The use of pallets is one of the basic and most fundamental requirements of modern warehousing activities and operations. All incoming cargo or products that are not yet palletised need to be stacked on (standardised) pallets during or directly after unloading a truck or un-stuffing a container. A dedicated follow-up of pallet stock management is of paramount importance to carry on the logistics activities. After palletising the goods, the content of each pallet needs to be inventoried and this data needs to flow into the warehouse management system.

  • Port of Hambantota
    2016 PORT OF HAMBANTOTA SRI LANKA PORTS AUTHORITY Port of Hambantota Page 1 1. INTRODUCTION Located in the Indian Ocean, bordering on the equator, the island of Sri Lanka boasts of a rich history of civilization, rulers, religion, traditions and marvels of engineering. A 30,000 year history beginning with the “Balangoda Manawaya” to the present Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, the country has had its fair share of influences but has always remained true to its identity of being the “Pearl of the Indian Ocean”. Due to the unique geographical nature as well as its global position, the island of Sri Lanka became a prime target for European Conquerors during the Colonial Era. From the beginning of 16th century up to the mid-20th century, initially the coastal areas and later the whole island was under the governance of European Empires. Since, the independence in 1948, Sri Lanka has been through its thick and thin of geo-political troubles and has blossomed into a unique destination for multinational trade, tourists, entrepreneurs, etc. Trade via sea routes has always been the prime source, which generated international trade to Sri Lanka. Hence, the establishment of Sri Lanka Ports Authority in 1979 under the act “The Sri Lanka Ports Authority Act No. 51 of 1979” was a critical juncture in the economic development timeline of Sri Lanka. It enabled a single entity to develop maintain, operate and oversee all activities in relation to the Port Sector of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka Ports Authority currently owns a total of seven Ports located all around the island.

  • A Case Study of Sri Lankan Media
    C olonials, bourgeoisies and media dynasties: A case study of Sri Lankan media. Abstract: Despite enjoying nearly two centuries of news media, Sri Lanka has been slow to adopt western liberalist concepts of free media, and the print medium which has been the dominant format of news has remained largely in the hands of a select few – essentially three major newspaper groups related to each other by blood or marriage. However the arrival of television and the change in electronic media ownership laws have enabled a number of ‘independent’ actors to enter the Sri Lankan media scene. The newcomers have thus been able to challenge the traditional and incestuous bourgeois hold on media control and agenda setting. This paper outlines the development of news media in Sri Lanka, and attempts to trace the changes in the media ownership and audience. It follows the development of media from the establishment of the first state-sanctioned newspaper to the budding FM radio stations that appear to have achieved the seemingly impossible – namely snatching media control from the Wijewardene, Senanayake, Jayawardene, Wickremasinghe, Bandaranaike bourgeoisie family nexus.

The former British colony of Ceylon has a long history of media, dating back to the publication of the first Dutch Prayer Book in 1737 - under the patronage of Ceylon’s Dutch governor Gustaaf Willem Baron van Imhoff (1736-39), and the advent of the ‘newspaper’ by the British in 1833. By the 1920’s the island nation was finding strength as a pioneer in Asian radio but subsequently became a relative latecomer to television by the time it was introduced to the island in the late1970’s.
