We are the largest Newspaper Company in South East Asia and publish 3 daily, 3 weekend, 5 weekly, 2 monthly and 3 annual publications in Sinhala, English and Tamil languages.

 

The "Daily News" our English daily is the first Sri Lankan Newspaper to publish on-line. At present Daily News, Sunday Observer, Silumina and Budusarana publications are available on-line.

 

The Daily News and Sunday Observer continue to enjoy the privilege of being two most widely accessed Newspaper Websites in Sri lanka.

 

The on-line marriage proposal columns, especially in Sunday Observer and Banner links in Daily news enjoy high patronage.

 

We are in the process of systematically introducing all our publications to the ANCL website in the near future thus giving Sri Lankan expatriates as well as foreign communities opportunities of fast access to news in Sri Lanka.
