According to the World Bank data, Sri Lanka’s GNI per capita has increased from USD 3,840 in 2017 to USD 4,060 in 2018. As per the new classifications, upper-middle income economies are defined as those with a GNI per capita between USD 3,996 and USD 12,375.
Low-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of USD 1,025 or less in 2018, lower-middle income economies are those with a GNI per capita between USD 1,026 and USD 3,995 and high income economies are those with a GNI per capita of USD 12,376 or more.
Congratulations Ranil, you are the only patriot who can drive us towards a high income Nation.
That is a great achievement Hon Ranil, something which the Blue leaders failed over 20 years on despotic rule.
Well done, dear Fellow Old Royalist,
It is only Royalists who can drive our nation towards prosperity, towards higher income status..
May God Bless You Ranil.
