Joint publication with Ministry of Health, Nutrition and Indigenous Medicine, Sri Lanka Message from the WHO Representative to Sri Lanka Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a major threat to global health, accounting for nearly 72% of all deaths in 2016, of which nearly three quarters occurred in low- and middle-income countries. NCDs are to a large extent preventable, but little has been done to convert available knowledge or evidence into effective policies and actions. It is therefore important to prioritize issues pertaining to NCDs for research in the development of evidence-based interventions, with a view to translating these into action. In this backdrop, the comprehensive desk review on the Sri Lankan research evidence on cardiovascular diseases and diabetes and related risk factors, interventions and health system response during 2000-2018 is timely and valuable. It will help guide researchers, policy makers and administrators, and other stakeholders on evidence-based interventions to combat the burden of NCDs in the country. I congratulate the review team and the lead consultant for their effort in bringing out this publication. I am confident that this will serve as a valuable resource for tackling NCDs in Sri Lanka and beyond. Dr Razia Pendse World Health Organization Representative to Sri Lanka Foreword from Director General of Health Services I am pleased to send this message witnessing the successful completion of the bibliographic database related to research on major non-communicable diseases (NCDs), risk factors and interventions that prevent and control such diseases in Sri Lanka, as well as the desk review of research conducted on cardiovascular disease and diabetes during the period 2000-2018 in Sri Lanka. This comprehensive desk review gives us an overview of two major causes of premature mortality and extensive morbidity in the country. It elaborates the disease & economic burden imposed on individuals, family and the country. It further highlights the risky and protective health behaviour of apparently healthy adults as well as patients, through which at-risk population groups could be identified and activities prioritized, so that the onset of diseases and complications could be minimized or delayed. Finally, the review will enable us to revisit the health system response to ensure that no one is excluded in the provision of health care services across all age groups. Another unique outcome of this project would be the updates planned of the bibliography beyond 2018 at regular intervals, so that it would enable us to formulate timely evidence-based interventions. As the Director General of Health Services, I congratulate the review consultant and her team, and all those who had contributed to the scientific content, compilation and critical review of the bibliographic database and desk review of NCD related research for their enormous contribution Dr Anil Jasinghe Director General of Health Services Ministry of Health, Nutrition & Indigenous Medicine Message from Deputy Director General (Education, Training & Research) Health research is one of the most essential components towards enhancement of a health system. In accordance, the Ministry of Health Sri Lanka has identified the importance of developing a sustained research culture among healthcare professionals. To this end, collation and review of the available evidence-base is a priority, as it is the key for incorporating extensive, complex and unique evidence into policy and practice. This approach would further guide future research, providing clear insights into the gaps in knowledge that require further researching into. An increasing trend of non-communicable diseases has been noted over the recent past, which is expected to rise amidst newer threats in the disease epidemiology of Sri Lanka. To face this challenge, the delivery of healthcare is evolving, with more emphasis on primary care. In this backdrop, health research enriched both in quantity and quality could address some of the crucial issues pertaining to major NCDs in Sri Lanka. I congratulate the timely move of the Ministry of Health and World Health Organization, and the review team for undertaking this project. It is fervently hoped that utilization of this review for appropriate evidence-based decisions on the health system, would enhance the health of Sri Lanka. Dr Sudath Samaraweera Deputy Director General (Education, Training & Research) Ministry of Health, Nutrition & Indigenous Medicine Acknowledgements This report would not have been possible without the commitment and support from many individuals, health institutions and organizations. We greatly appreciate the administrative support extended by Dr Anil Jayasinghe, Director General Health Services. I appreciate with gratitude the hard work undertaken by Prof. Carukshi Arambepola, the project consultant in developing the bibliographic literature database and the desk review of NCD related research publications from 2000-2018 and writing the report, and Dr Yasaswi N Walpita, Dr Dushyanthi Jayawardena and Ms Suganya Yogeswaran for assisting her in the project. Reviewing a multitude of research publications published locally and internationally is not an easy task. The exceptional role played by Dr Nalika Gunawardena, National Professional Officer (Health Systems Analysis and Evidence) of the World Health Organization Country Office, Sri Lanka has been tremendous in giving the technical guidance to the review team, coordinating the work between the Ministry of Health and review team. I also thank the WHO Country Office Sri Lanka especially Dr Razia Pendse, WHO Representative for Sri Lanka for her support in making this publication a reality. I profusely thank Prof. Jennifer Perera, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and

  • Building Bridges Or Breaking Bonds? the Belt and Road Initiative and Foreign Aid Competition
    AAIDDATA Research Lab at William & Mary WORKING PAPER 72 April 2019 Building Bridges or Breaking Bonds? The Belt and Road Initiative and Foreign Aid Competition Krishna Chaitanya Vadlamannati School of Politics & International Relations University College Dublin Yuanxin Li School of Politics & International Relations University College Dublin Samuel Brazys School of Politics & International Relations University College Dublin Alexander Dukalskis School of Politics & International Relations University College Dublin Abstract China’s renewed prominence is the most important development in international relations in the 21st century. Despite longstanding rhetoric of its own “peaceful rise”, China is increasingly viewed as a long-term strategic competitor, especially in the United States. Foreign aid is one arena where this competition may be playing out. While Western foreign aid principles have emphasized coordination and harmonization, the rise of China as a major development partner has raised the specter of a return to competitive foreign aid practices. Most notably, China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), has received a wary reception by some who view it primarily as a geostrategic effort. We test if the BRI is inducing a competitive foreign aid response by evaluating if countries involved in this initiative are more likely to receive US support for loan packages from the major, Western, multilateral development banks (MDBs). Using an instrumental variable approach, covering 6975 project/loan packages in 16 MDBs from 157 countries during 2013-2018 period, we find that the United States is more likely to vote for MDB packages to countries that have signed on to the BRI, predominantly when the actual amount of Chinese aid flowing to those countries is still low, suggesting the US is competing for “in play” countries.

  • Reforming Sri Lankan Presidentialism: Provenance, Problems and Prospects Volume 2
    Reforming Sri Lankan Presidentialism: Provenance, Problems and Prospects Edited by Asanga Welikala Volume 2 18 Failure of Quasi-Gaullist Presidentialism in Sri Lanka Suri Ratnapala Constitutional Choices Sri Lanka’s Constitution combines a presidential system selectively borrowed from the Gaullist Constitution of France with a system of proportional representation in Parliament. The scheme of proportional representation replaced the ‘first past the post’ elections of the independence constitution and of the first republican constitution of 1972. It is strongly favoured by minority parties and several minor parties that owe their very existence to proportional representation. The elective executive presidency, at least initially, enjoyed substantial minority support as the president is directly elected by a national electorate, making it hard for a candidate to win without minority support. (Sri Lanka’s ethnic minorities constitute about 25 per cent of the population.) However, there is a growing national consensus that the quasi-Gaullist experiment has failed. All major political parties have called for its replacement while in opposition although in government, they are invariably seduced to silence by the fruits of office. Assuming that there is political will and ability to change the system, what alternative model should the nation embrace? Constitutions of nations in the modern era tend fall into four categories. 1.! Various forms of authoritarian government. These include absolute monarchies (emirates and sultanates of the Islamic world), personal dictatorships, oligarchies, theocracies (Iran) and single party rule (remaining real or nominal communist states). 2.! Parliamentary government based on the Westminster system with a largely ceremonial constitutional monarch or president. Most Western European countries, India, Japan, Israel and many former British colonies have this model with local variations.

  • Chapter Iv Sri Lanka and the International System
    1 CHAPTER IV SRI LANKA AND THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM : THE UNP GOVERNMENTS In the system of sovereign states, individual states interact with other states and international organizations to protect and promote their national interests. As the issues and scope of the interests of different classes of states vary, so do the character and patterns of their interactions to preserve and promote them. Unlike the super powers whose national interests encompass the entire sovereign states system, the small states have a relatively limited range of interests as well as a relatively limited sphere of foreign policy activities. As a small state, Sri Lanka has a relatively small agenda of interests in the international arena and the sphere of its foreign policy activities is quite restricted in comparison to those of the super powers, or regional powers. The sphere of its foreign policy activities can be analytically separated into two levels : those in the South Asian regional system and those in the larger international system.1 In the South Asian regional system Sri Lanka has to treat India with due caution because of the existence of wide difference in their respective capabilities, yet try to maintain its sovereignty, freedom and integrity. In the international system apart from mitigating the pressures and pulls emanating from the international power structure, Sri Lanka has to promote its national interests to ensure its security, stability and status.
