Likewise, recently, Sri Lanka– the pearl of the Indian Ocean– has been experiencing some of the country’s toughest economic, political, and economic times in decades.

To highlight, most of the country’s downfall began when they borrowed funds from China for infrastructural construction that they were unable to repay. The added interest rates worsened, and deep tax cuts further added to the situation. When the Covid-19 pandemic struck the world, many countries including Sri Lanka were affected. Added to the disaster were internal issues of the country rooting from racism, attacks, etc. which escalated the situation of the country further.
