Good to be back in #SriLanka! Had a great first meeting with President @anuradisanayake about his vision for Sri Lanka. Discussed @WorldBank support to digital economy, rural and skills development, affordable energy, and lagging regions, with a focus on the North of Sri Lanka.

As Sri Lanka's economy is recovering, we must focus on jobs and development that benefits all Sri Lankans. We’ll continue working with @IFC_org to support private sector investment & jobs in sectors such as tourism, renewable energy & agri value chains. @riccardopuliti

There's a glacier in Antarctica so immense that, if it melted, would raise sea levels globally by 3.5 meters. It's melting. Right now.
