✅The IMF Executive Board has approved #LK's 17th IMF program, under the Extended Fund Facility (EFF). However, this is only the beginning.

Here is a 🧵about what this means for 🇱🇰 and what happens next. 1/6

#EconomicCrisisLK #IMF #SriLanka #Reforms
🏦The EFF aims to provide assistance to countries experiencing serious balance of payments imbalances because of structural impediments, or slow growth. It provides support for comprehensive programs with policies needed to correct structural imbalances over a longer period. 2/6
🚫What it is not? The #IMF program is not a bailout. With an IMF program comes credibility and it aims to bring back confidence in 🇱🇰's economy giving #LK access to bilateral, multilateral and financial markets. However, it does not solve all 🇱🇰's economic woes. 3/6

Story of Tumeric
Is a story of how disconnected #lk politicians are with market dynamics. If self sufficiency was the panacea for our economic ills, banning imports of Tumeric should have worked? Right? It didn't! Long thread #economy #SriLanka #SupplyChain #inflation
Story of Tumeric
First, by creating artificial demand we forced consumers to pay dearly, up to 1K /kg. Then farmers were deceived into believing they could prosper by growing tumeric. According to farmers, the market has crashed with no money in sight! #CostOfLivingCrisis #lka
Story of Tumeric

Homemakers can't find any cheap turmeric either! Further,busy homemakers want the finished product on their kitchen shelves and don't have the time nor patience to process raw tumeric, nor pay inflated prices. Foregoing tumeric is a better option. #FoodSecurity

BREAKING NEWS
Discussions are underway to release convicted murderer Duminda Silva as a part of general pardon disguised to release some prisoners due to Corona Virus outbreak. Namal Rajapaksa is taking the lead in the project under blessings of MR. @Hirunika_Premac #lka #lk
