Twenty five persons representing postal trade unions left last week
to take part in a five-day workshop being held in New Delhi.
Postal Services Minister Jeevan Kumaratunga presented the air tickets
to the employees at a ceremony at the Postal Services Ministry.
Minister Kumaratunga, addressing the event after presenting the air
tickets, said it is time to add new services to Sri Lanka's postal
services to prevent it from undergoing a natural death. "Compared to
universal postal services, Sri Lanka lags behind and depends on a few
traditional services. If the traditional trend was followed a portion of
Sri Lanka Post being taken over can't be prevented," Kumaratunga said.
