( February 7, 2015, Montreal, Sri Lanka Guardian) It is heartening to read in the Daily News that Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake has confirmed that State governance in Sri Lanka will be aligned to a culture associated with private enterprise. The Minister has made clear that this does not mean that State enterprises will be privatized.  The sensibility of this approach is laudable, at least from the author’s perspective.  32 years ago, when the author was  Senior Legal Executive at Air Lanka he wrote an article to the Daily News entitled “How to Run the Government Like the Best Private Company” which encouragingly, was published in 1983.
