First preference is always India, second China : Srilankan President

you think US is no 1 trading partner? Do facts that I have shown over and over again ever matter ( articles I've linked)? and based on your leanings of ignoring facts over what you " think" -- should we even believe a single thing you have espoused?

Why you think India is no 1 trading partner of SL? I read the stats few weeks ago, EU & USA is our main trading partner. Between EU & USA, I think it's USA. If not then it's EU.

Update:

Sri Lanka exports were worth 2721 Million USD in the first quarter of 2011. Sri Lanka exports mostly textiles and garments (40% of total exports) and tea (17%). Others include: spices, gems, coconut products, rubber and fish. Main export partners are United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium and Italy. This page includes a chart with historical data for Sri Lanka's exports.

Sri Lanka Exports


do you understand the meaning/ difference between " export data" vs largest "trading partner"?

India has been Sri Lanka’s largest trading partner for a considerable period of time and is most likely to retain the status quo in the foreseeable future.

Approximately 14% of Sri Lanka’s international trade was conducted with India in 2010. India ranks number one among Sri Lanka’s source of imports, representing 20% of Sri Lanka’s total imports, valued at US$ 2,546 million in 2010.

India enjoys a predominant position in the Sri Lankan market in respect of commodities such as pharmaceutical, heavy vehicles, light vehicles, motorcycles, textiles and consumer products such as cosmetics, onion, potatoes and chillies.

Sri Lanka is no threat. I don't know why people making so much of fuzz. SL is just 100 KM away from our south Border with our 100 warships, CBG, ATV in few hundred KM. :coffee:

SL will never go against India, mark my word. Best they will try to make equal relation with both China and India for various loan/aid/Infra development.

you did not? ... did you bother to even comprehend what you, yourself have written here?

I talk about trade partner , you cite export data

I educate you about the fact that export data does not equate trade partner ... you come back with data showing EU is no1 trade partner

I educate you again that EU is not one country and the statement is true that India( one country) is your largest trade partner...

you come back with the squirmish reply above...


can you now finally agree I was right? India is your no 1 trade partner?

India is our main import trade partner I have mentioned that above.
Our export trade partners are differ, we mainly based on garments and those stuff goes to EU & USA. Stats shows as EU (Even the wiki mentioning it as EU) that's why I had mentioned it, next USA, then India.

No 1 Trade Partner> Export > USA
No 1 Trade Partner> Import> India
