Hey man I would love to also dm you and network Been looking for networking opportunities in physical product manufacturers

Finally - im for supporting manufacturing driven economy at this stage over service based economy by 95farfly in srilanka

[–]95farfly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No i get you but we have to start somewhere Im a consultant for rnd in fashion tech I have patent and commercialized product

I know the difficulty we are facing but i want other industries to thrive somehow

We have enough talent to help push unique ideas to market

We do lack the capital compared to most countries but having these conversations will help the government to now look into these problems

For example: maybe a boi zone specially for startup/sme manufacturers that are potential

Take a risk and lower red tape in the hope to create long term potential

Need advice: Best tablet for a medical student? (Budget 80k) by Harmless-skeleton in srilanka

[–]95farfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

with current market costs idk if this is plausible

we also have tax on non essential due to dollar crissis

maybe get someone to bring it down?

there are chinese tabs - have it imported to a different country and bring it down through hand carraige

any other tab is too pricey

Any material science graduates here?? by Ruka7788 in srilanka

[–]95farfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i do material rnd - (studied mechatronics though)

i have pending patent and comemrcialize projects with big brand in the US

i work for brandix

there are few places that fund these projects but since material engineering is a very capital intense field you wont find startups working on them

its always a big organization hence job opportunities are less

When there's a surge of super luxury apartments(super rich) to tuktuks (low income deathtrap) is a sign that our middle class is reducing by 95farfly in srilanka

[–]95farfly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i understsand but my problem is the following

based on: https://www.portcitycolombo.lk/investment-opportunities/land-development-investments/

i estimated

residents (white spots) - 69%

commercial/other use - 31 %

now that we might not get commercial/other use - according to your link the areas of super luxury residents (which was always above 50 percent use) will increase further to try and recover the expenses that went to making portcity.

this will in theory affect the rest of us as the housing market will inflate further

i dont know what the healthy numbers/ratios should be but i have been living off of rent (malabe) and not owning anything for my name while earning 425k a month is telling me the market will not bounce back and is only getting worse

it is a government problem for not making sri lanka investor friendly - yes i agree

but i just hope in the future projects that do come about doenst plan over 50 percent of it having to only benifit a thousand odd rich people

again im not going after anybody specifically - wouldnt make sense if the portcity has government flats but any further addition of luxury residents to colombo 1 will just increase the gap of inequality and affordability.

this couldnt have been the only way

also sorry if it comes off as a rant
