This SL govt is not generous enough to give foreign currency earners duty free permits. We work our ass off to earn money but if we do come to SL ad doesnt matter we bring $1mil govt wont give us a permit to buy vehicle. Only way for us to buy a permit is to buy from a one who sells it. And we dont take a single cent from SL foreign currency reserve to buy the car still we have to pay taxes. But after we bring money to country that money is use to buy cars for other people like govt servents and politicians who has not bought a $1 to the country. Thats the way SL works. I personally think govt should give at lease a limit of $50000 USD duty free permit for people who at least bought $100000 USD to the country Do you think that only people who bring foreign currency here are the only citizens who help to develop Sri Lanka? All are talking about earning dollars and sending to Sri Lanka and expecting duty concessions for vehicle imports. Sad to say that people forgot the war heroes who scarified their lives for the country. What I feel , before giving duty concessions to the politicians, government officers, foreign currency earners for Sri Lanka, government should give duty concession to get at least motorbikes for children/family who lost their fathers/husbond in armed forces and Police.

What about those folks searching for new and more sustainable ways to run cars cos your exxon-Mobile just aint cutting it? Shouldn't we give them free cars then? Hey dude, first of all let me clarify that, it was android auto correction which did the mistake. Anyway Exxon doesnt need scientist to suck oil up from the ground. Exxon is already looking for other ways to live once oil has dried up. So we are currently looking at sustainable energy sources. Specially Hydrogen as a energy source. And thats gonna be the future. Electric is going no where as it takes hours to recharge, and even with that you get a very low range. Even if some body able to overcome these hurdles then theres gonna be another problem due to added weight. (due to batteries). So electric car has no long term future. Where as hydrogen you only have to top up the tank. Best thing is you only get water vapor as emission, so theres no major side effects like CO2. (only side effect is due theres a possibility that water vapor can can contribute to the green house effect as it has 2 hydrogen and oxygen bonds which has changing dipole moment). Anyway enough is enough about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I 110% agree with you. Govt needs to give duty free permit to those people. And from my vision least govt can do to the soldiers who lost their arms and legs is to give a permit so they can at least import a three wheeler. (If govt cant buy those to them). And I never said locals who work in the country dosnt help the development of the country. They do and they should be well recognize for it. But retards in this forums still say bad things about people who earns in abroad and dont think they should get recognize. But they keep forgetting that they were able to enjoy a luxuries life style and were able to buy cars is due to the money brought to the country by our maids working in middle east. And when I say all foreign employees should get recognize with duty concessions majority is so against it. This might be due to pure jealousy. When ever there are korean jobs advertise on news paper number of people that go to korean embassy is not hundreds but thousands. So I m sure most of the people who hates foreign employees are the people who couldn't go to another country and earn money. Dont be so against with foreign employees. All sri lankans (doesnt matter you have millions of rupees) are in great debt for maids who work in middle east. I really wish these retards will get a brain one day to understand this simple fact.

They dont deplete foreign reserves, they bring money to the country. So they deserve a duty free permit. Of course Doctors, Engineers, and other senior offices should get duty free permits. At the same time govt should give permits to those who brings foreign currency. After all everyone in the country can buy vehicles and other imported things is because of them, And govt ignores very same people who does that to the country. There are only hand full of people in SL who brings foreign currency. Dude, if you don't know who does, and who doesn't bring in foreign currency, then please stop trying to show off by pretending.
