36Dreadful decision if this is true. And the NAMES are ugly! Keep it as the Ceylon Electricity Board. Just obliterate politicisation. If you want, then list it on the Stock Exchange for the market to discipline it. The fact some moron somewhere genuinely believes multiplying the number of entities and giving it a crap name makes things more efficient shows how far this once beautiful brilliant country has fallen. In that sense the ugly names they've picked are indeed fitting. Indianised nonsense!

So from did you guys found the 5, billion investment as per the Minister's statement, "අපි කොහෙන් හරි ගේනවා" Sonis it a private investment? If so who are the investors? If not what is the source of funds? 🤔
This is a positive and strategic move to address the ongoing challenges within the CEB By unbundling its core functions, the government can unlock several key benefits: 1. Transparency & Accountability • Separating generation, transmission, distribution, and system operations creates clear lines of responsibility. • Prevents a single entity from concealing inefficiencies across the supply chain.( බෝල පාස් කිරීම් නැතිවෙයි 🏀🏀) 2. Operational Efficiency • Each company can focus on its core function, improving performance and productivity. • Makes it easier to benchmark performance and identify/cut losses especially in the distribution segment, where CEB currently incurs significant losses. (හදිසි / ප්ලෑන් බිදවැටීම් අඩුවෙයි) 3. Attracting Private Investment • Independent generation and distribution entities can facilitate public-private partnerships and encourage foreign investment. • The generation sector could see increased competition from renewable energy providers. (හදිසි මිලදීම් ගැනීමට තිත 🤑🤑 4. Stronger Regulatory Oversight • PUCSL will be able to regulate each entity individually, promoting fair pricing and service quality. • Reduces conflicts of interest that exist when one body handles generation, transmission, and distribution. (No more වැඩ වර්ජන ✌️) 5. Financial Discipline • Currently, CEB operates as a single loss making monopoly. Splitting it into separate entities forces financial accountability and better budget management within each division. (හොරා කෑමට තිත 🫡) 6. Improved Renewable Energy Integration • A dedicated National System Operator can ensure the systematic integration of solar, wind, and mini-hydro sources into the grid. • Enhances grid stability and supports Sri Lanka’s renewable energy targets.( විදුලි බිල අඩුකිරීමට හොදම මග 📉
The Act said 6 companies - one for shared services and another for managing the pension fund. Wonder what happened to those...
WTF...pvt ltd company with state owned.....😁
ආයතන කොටස් කරන්නේ කාර්යක්ෂම කරීමට නොව විකිණීමට බව ඔබේ ඩෝබි මිතුරායි කියා දෙන්න. මේ කාරණය කිව්වේ නම් චන්දෙට කලින් අනුර කුමාර. චන්දෙන් පස්සෙ මිනිහා මොනවා කියනවද දකින්නෙ නෑ.
Sunera Lanerolle how about this move ?
100% state ownership is a lost cause with the inefficient staff we have. Kanchana's bill was much more progressive
A good move, It is a very efficient way to manage state own companies. I am here in oman working in the electricity sector. They have divided state owned electricity sector into 7 companies. 1. Generation 2. Transmission 3. Distribution 4. Suppy 5. Power Procurement 6. An Elecricity holding Coompany (Parent) 7. A separate entity to provide IT & Billing related support
Shafras Nazeer 7 upper management 7 middle management it's opposite of efficiency. In UAE water supply and electricity are one authority more efficient.

Looks like CEB is going for CSE in future
"state owned" may be for a certain time petiod😌😌😌
Eww. Another LTL in making 🫠
Ah shit here we go again.
Good filtering
Its all under Government, so what is the point, i don't get it.
Rukshan Samanthilaka all companies will come under company act. Not under CEB act anymore.
You mean SOE, Like SLIC and Sugar Co. Ltd ? not sure what is the benefit of having it like a SOE, Private investments are not interested on SOE ne.. or its not SOE something new..
Again state owned, then what is the purpose of this restructuring?
Employees can’t request for transfers to any other companies. They can only select VRS or stay same places
Amazing 🤩!!! Incompetence will leave the Electricity Board soon .
State owned? Then why private limited?
Ahamed Aashik same question 🙋♂️
Ahamed Aashik Please read the company act 1st.
When will the strike be?

Sadev Abeyrathne It’s done and dusted. It was proposed differently, but this government made it all state-owned.
