Sri Lanka is highly dependent on foreign Assistance and several high-profile assistance projects were launched in 2003. The most significant of these resulted from an aid conference in Tokyo in June 2003; pledges at the summit, which included representatives from the International Monetary Fund, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, Japan, the European Union and the United States totaled $4.5 billion.Economy is the sum total of all ‘commercial activities.’ It includes buying, selling, distributing, giving, taking and such other activities. It does not include activities such as reading a book. But if you were reading the book after paying a certain fee then this will be a part of economic activity.
