大运河传媒讯 （运传 发自斯里兰卡科伦坡）坐拥得天独厚的黄金地理位置，被誉为“印度洋的心脏”的斯里兰卡正将地理优势转化为发展动能，向中国投资者敞开大门。中斯合作前景如何？大运河传媒记者直击3月11日在斯里兰卡首都科伦坡由斯里兰卡国家会议局、斯里兰卡专业协会组织（OPA）等主办的中国与斯里兰卡行业协会、国际组织代表交流会，现场目击了斯里兰卡国家会议局、国家旅游部官员们和专业协会组织负责人，是如何以清晰的产业定位和务实的合作意愿，向中国企业发出投资邀请的。

斯里兰卡国家会议局主席迪拉•赫蒂亚拉奇（Dheera Hettiarachchi）代表斯里兰卡政府和旅游部向中方代表团表示，协会在会议和大会的组织工作中起着至关重要的作用。我们深知中国拥有庞大且成熟的协会体系，这对其经济发展贡献巨大。基于这种认识，我们诚邀中方企业来探索斯里兰卡，将其作为未来商务活动、合作项目和投资机会的理想目的地。

他介绍，在旅游业领域，隶属于斯里兰卡旅游部的有四个重要机构。它们分别是：斯里兰卡旅游发展管理局，这是负责制定标准、进行注册和监督工作的主要监管机构；斯里兰卡旅游推广局，负责将斯里兰卡打造为顶级休闲旅游目的地；斯里兰卡旅游与酒店管理学院，对培养酒店业的专业人才起着至关重要的作用；最后是斯里兰卡会议展览局，致力于将斯里兰卡宣传为商务、会议、展览和观光旅游的理想目的地。

On behalf of the Government of Sri Lanka and the Ministry of Tourism, it is my great pleasure to extend a very warm welcome to all of you to Sri Lanka.

First and foremost, I would like to express our sincere appreciation to the China Association members for accepting our invitation to visit our country and explore the many opportunities available for collaboration and engagement. I am confident that today’s networking session will provide you with valuable opportunities to connect with professionals from a wide range of industries.

Within the tourism sector, four key institutions operate under the Ministry of Tourism. These include the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority, the primary regulatory body responsible for standards, registration, and monitoring; the Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau, which promotes Sri Lanka as a premier leisure destination; the Sri Lanka Institute of Tourism & Hotel Management, which plays a vital role in developing skilled professionals for the hospitality sector; and finally, the Sri Lanka Convention Bureau, which focuses on promoting Sri Lanka as a preferred destination for MICE tourism.

Associations play a crucial role in the organization of conferences and congresses. We recognize that China has a significant and well-established association sector that contributes greatly to its economy. It is with this understanding that we have initiated this collaboration, together with the Organization of Professional Associations (OPA), to invite you to explore Sri Lanka as a destination for your future business events, partnerships, and investment opportunities.

This initiative marks an important step by the Sri Lanka Convention Bureau in partnership with OPA to facilitate Association-to-Association (A2A) meetings here today at the Hilton Colombo.

Sri Lanka is a destination renowned for its natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and vibrant spirit. From our pristine beaches to the lush hill country, from bustling cities to serene countryside, our island offers a diverse range of experiences for every visitor. I am confident that these unique attributes will inspire you to share Sri Lanka with your members and stakeholders.

We hope that during your stay, you will have the opportunity to explore our beautiful island, engage with peers from similar industries, and experience the warmth and hospitality of our people. We are confident that Sri Lanka will stand out as an ideal destination for your future meetings, conferences, and investment ventures.

Once again, I sincerely thank you for visiting Sri Lanka. Please feel free to reach out to the Sri Lanka Convention Bureau should you require any support. Our dedicated team, led by Ms. Achini, Senior Manager of the Sri Lanka Convention Bureau, who initiated this project, will be pleased to assist you.

斯里兰卡工业与创业发展部副部长查图拉纳格•阿贝西辛赫（Chamuranga Abeysingh）推介说，斯里兰卡提供了种类繁多的高品质产品，并出口到世界各地。在服务行业，诸如旅游业、海运服务和科技等行业正经历着快速增长。除了这些传统领域之外，政府还积极推动增值农业，并探索新的旅游领域——特别是健康和养生旅游，以使斯里兰卡成为高端旅游目的地。在这种情况下，我们渴望建立有意义的合作关系，共同推进这些机遇。我们正在采取重大举措来加强斯里兰卡的全球互联互通，减少官僚作风，并利用数字技术来促进高效的投资流程。目前正在进行的最重要的投资发展项目是科伦坡港口城。这一标志性项目是由中国港湾工程公司旗下的科伦坡港口城（私人）有限公司开发的多功能特殊经济区，而该公司又是中国交通建设公司的子公司。同时港口城拥有斯里兰卡首个游艇码头、免税零售区和豪华滨水开发项目。它旨在通过世界级的基础设施、先进的技术和极具吸引力的商业环境吸引高价值投资。

Good afternoon, distinguished guests, ladies & Gentlemen

It is my great pleasure to extend a very warm welcome to the China Association delegation to Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka has identified five key global investment source markets, and China stands out as one of the most significant among them. Many of your associations possess strong capabilities across diverse sectors and have already demonstrated remarkable success in the global marketplace.

Sri Lanka offers a wide range of high-quality products that are exported worldwide. In the services sector, industries such as tourism, maritime services, and technology are experiencing rapid growth. In addition to these traditional sectors, the Government is actively promoting value-added agriculture and exploring new tourism segments—particularly health and wellness tourism—to position Sri Lanka as a high-end destination.

In this context, we are keen to build meaningful partnerships to jointly advance these opportunities. We are taking significant steps to strengthen Sri Lanka’s global connectivity by minimizing bureaucracy and leveraging digital technologies to facilitate efficient and seamless investment processes.

Furthermore, we have introduced progressive tariff reforms, with new policies coming into effect this year. These measures will enhance our ability to establish stronger trade and investment linkages with key regions, including Africa, India, and East Asia.

Sri Lanka’s policy of political neutrality also enables us to maintain strong and balanced relationships with Western, Eastern, European, and Middle Eastern countries. For Chinese investors, this creates a unique opportunity to use Sri Lanka as a strategic gateway to access both the Indian and African markets.

One of the most significant ongoing investment developments is the Colombo Port City. This landmark project is a multi-service Special Economic Zone developed by CHEC Port City Colombo (Pvt) Ltd, a subsidiary of China Harbour Engineering Company, which in turn is part of China Communications Construction Company.

The Colombo Port City Economic Commission serves as a single-window investment facilitator, offering investor-friendly incentives and a progressive regulatory framework. Strategically located at the heart of South Asia, this project represents one of the largest public-private partnerships in Sri Lanka and aims to set a global benchmark for investment, services, and lifestyle.

As one of the island’s most exciting emerging destinations, Colombo Port City features Sri Lanka’s first yacht marina, a duty-free retail zone, and luxury waterfront developments. It is designed to attract high-value investments through world-class infrastructure, advanced technologies, and a highly favorable business environment.

斯里兰卡国家旅游部投资者关系处副处长Bhagya Mahawithanage 全面介绍了斯里兰卡旅游业的投资机遇。斯里兰卡拥有1300公里海岸线、8000公尺高山、30%森林覆盖率、1200多个湖泊、300多个瀑布、100多条河流、100多个森林保护区和25个国家公园，地理优势得天独厚，交通便捷。作为旅游发展的权威机构，国家旅游部在保持国内现有酒店产品和服务质量标准的同时，重点是规范未来的旅游发展，使其与当前及未来的发展趋势相契合，确保符合所有监管要求、质量标准以及可持续发展准则。目前提出的特色旅游类别涵盖了艺术文化与遗产、冒险活动、自然与野生动物、健康与疗养、节日与活动、食品与饮料、农业旅游、志愿者旅游、婚礼与庆典、数字游民等多项内容。

斯里兰卡工程师协会（IESL）L.B.K.Laksiri博士表示，协会拥有100多年历史，有超过25000名会员，同时是《华盛顿协议》和《国际专利分类法》的正式签署方，参与维护海外分会及国际网络。IESL的全国影响力覆盖基础设施建设、建筑与工程咨询、水与灌溉、制造与工业工程、电信与信息技术、运输与物流、电力与能源等七大领域。他认为，加强斯里兰卡和中国的合作应寻找可靠的中国供应商、使用政府认可的供应商名录、支持供应商尽职调查并核实财务稳定性、在采购前确保验证工作完成、建立结构化的B2B业务参与机制。他强调，斯里兰卡目前缺乏可靠的供应商，期待为斯里兰卡项目提供可靠的中国公司，加强业务合作关系。

斯里兰卡护士研究生基金会（GNFSL) S.S.P Warnakulasuriya教授认为，在护理和健康科学领域开展全球合作对于应对新出现的健康问题以及强化医疗体系至关重要。斯里兰卡护理行业在社区卫生、灾难应对、传染病控制、母婴健康和以社区为导向的医疗保健和护理领导等方面拥有宝贵的经验。面对人口老龄化、慢性疾病、心理健康问题、卫生人力队伍建设、医疗领域数字化转型、全球性疫情、国家间战争等共同挑战，学术与专业合作、联合举办能力建设、联合研究项目、合作出版物、国际会议和研讨会、护士领导力发展项目、护士本科生和学者交流项目、联合研究生培训和研讨会等可以成为合作潜在领域。斯里兰卡期望可以建立斯里兰卡-中国护理合作平台，开展合作研究与创新项目、能力建设联合项目、大学与医疗机构之间的知识交流。

斯里兰卡城镇规划学会Y.A.G.K Gunathilake分享了加强斯里兰卡城市规划工作面临的关键挑战及战略干预措施，提出四大期待援助领域。第一，城市发展规划的筹备工作延缓。如为一个市政区域制定发展规划需要收集大量的信息。期待可以有对区域发展局、市议会和城市议会的能力建设工作，包括高科技调查无人机、空中测绘系统、地理信息系统、空间数据分析软件、高性能计算机和服务器、城市规划官员的技术培训、集成式数字数据平台等。第二，开发项目审批过程长期拖延。开发人员通常需要获得多个机构的批准。期望建立一个先进的数字审批系统。第三，缺乏专业的城镇规划与设计实验室。斯里兰卡目前在任何专门从事空间规划研究、实验和专业培训的机构中，都没有一个配备齐全的专业城镇规划与城市设计实验室。期望可以与中方合作建立一个设施完备的专业城镇规划与城市设计实验室。第四，缺乏可靠的城市发展数据库。斯里兰卡目前缺乏一个由专门机构维护的、关于城市化和城市发展的集中且持续更新的数据库。期望可以支持构建一个全面的城市信息系统。他表示，解决这四大领域问题将加快发展规划进程、提高投资和项目审批效率、提升专业能力和创新能力、支持基于证据的城市发展，从而建设更具竞争力、更具可持续性的城市。
