German Ambassador meets Minister for Commerce and Industry
24 April, 2013 - German Ambassador Dr. Jürgen Morhard met the Minister for Commerce and Industry Mr. Rishad Bathiudeen for fruitful discussions about Sri Lanka-German economic relations.
Ambassador Morhard and Minister Bathiudeen were both of the opinion that economic ties between the two countries had yet to reach their full potential, and pledged to work together to further enhance the relationship. The discussion also focused on the visit by a delegation from the German-Asian Business Circle in August, within the framework of celebrations marking 60 years of Sri Lanka-German bilateral relations.
The German Embassy funded the purchase of sheet music by well known, mainly German composers, including Haydn, Beethoven, Brahms, Handel and Mendelssohn, for the Colombo Philharmonic Choir.
