View(s):“Doubts over take-over of key CB functions”
Transact Lanka Ltd Managing Director Sunil Wijesinghe has sent the following letter to the Business Times with reference to the article published in the newspaper in the Business section last week under the above heading:
“We wish to inform you that Transact Lanka has only developed a web portal interface to the NPP and which is yet to be made operational. The portal is similar to other e-commerce portals operated by local entities which connect to banks and their payment gateways for commercial transactions. Please note this was not a tender for procurement of goods and services. We strongly object to the referenced ‘allegations that these deals are connected to some high-ups at the ICTA and a conflict of interest has emerged in making the selection’, which is totally unwarranted, unsubstantiated and uncalled for in reference to our company.”
