Moves are afoot for a change in the Board of Directors of SriLankan Airlines, the national carrier.
Those familiar with the changes say the post of Chairman has been offered to Ranjith Fernando, a former Chairman of the National Development Bank. A response from him is being awaited.
Though the current Board of Directors was expected to resign last week, the matter has been put on hold.
Expected to be on the new board are Mano Tittawala (currently serving in the Finance Ministry) and the first chairman of Airlanka, Captain Rakhita Wikramanayake, 80.
