A group of German investors arrived in Sri Lanka on the morning of January 5 via the Bandaranaike International Airport, Katunayake, to explore the establishment of a state-of-the-art technical college similar to the existing German Technical College operating in the country.
The visit follows preliminary discussions held with the President of Sri Lanka during his recent official visit to Germany. The arrival of the delegation marks a continuation of those talks and signals growing interest from Germany in strengthening technical and vocational education cooperation with Sri Lanka.
The six-member delegation is led by Professor Thomas Holdner and is scheduled to remain in Sri Lanka for 14 days to hold discussions with relevant authorities and assess the feasibility of the proposed project.
The delegation arrived in Sri Lanka at around 10.00 a.m. on Qatar Airways flight QR-660 from Doha and was received at the airport by Jayadeva Sudusinghe, a Sri Lankan academic working in the tourism sector in Germany.
