Office for Overseas Sri Lankan Affairs (OOSLA )
2022 interim budget proposal by his Excellency the President put to action under Cabinet Decision no. 22/2104/619/009 on December 19, 2022, the Office for Overseas Sri Lankan Affairs (OOSLA) was set up as an independent agency. OOSLA serves as the central nexus for coordination with Overseas Sri Lankans (OSLs), employing a dual strategy. Collaborating with 23 Government Stakeholders, it not only facilitates service delivery and information dissemination but also shapes policy recommendations addressing OSLs' concerns. The primary goal is to reconnect OSLs as investors, philanthropists, and knowledge remitters, fostering a single-stop engagement platform to earn their trust. This mutually beneficial approach transcends transactional relationships, aiming to deepen understanding and dialogue among communities. By actively engaging OSLs, OOSLA envisions playing a pivotal role in building unity and reconciliation for a harmonious Sri Lanka.
