COYLE, Chairman, Wasantha de Silva

Chamber of Young Lankan Entrepreneurs (COYLE), Chairman Wasantha de Silva commended the Government for its efforts to channel the benefits of hosting CHOGM 2013 to the business sector of the country. "The Government task force has made a magnificent effort to make the setting for this summit meeting of Commonwealth leaders convenient and impressive."

"We are confident that the gathering of Heads of Government in Colombo will put us on course to deliver yet more innovative and sustainable solutions to the contemporary challenges faced by the business community and these Commonwealth solutions are templates for global action," he said

"The theme, 'Building National Resilience, Building Global Resilience' encapsulates the important role of our member countries in collectively advancing national and international development and cooperation by building on the Commonwealth's vast economic potential," de Silva said.

"The international community will witness the potential of Sri Lanka as an investment destination. Showcasing the business potential available in our country is a sound investment in the long term. Word of mouth advertising, particularly among people with contacts and networks will be valuable to all sectors of the business community," he said. The Chamber of Young Lankan Entrepreneurs (COYLE) launched its journey to regenerate the corporate sector in 1999, by presenting itself as the milieu that bridges the gap between fundamental business segments in Sri Lanka.
