Are we sitting on a ticking economic time bomb?

In this unfiltered, hard-hitting exclusive on Insight, we sit down with economic heavy-hitting opposition legislator and COPF Chairman, Dr. Harsha de Silva. What unfolds is a blistering, page-by-page takedown of the current administration’s fiscal strategy, and a chilling warning about what is coming for Sri Lanka in 2027.

Dr. Harsha de Silva exposes what he calls a "100% conflict of interest" developing at the highest levels of the Treasury, warning that the country’s economic steering wheel has been handed over to an unprecedented political experiment. From the aggressive, relentless expansion of taxes that completely ignores the 26% of the population trapped in poverty, to a complete surrender of bargaining power in international negotiations, this interview pulls back the curtain on the illusions of "stability."

Are we actually recovering, or are we just dancing to a theoretical model while real human lives are squeezed to the brink?

The Treasury Shift: The shocking institutional move that Dr. de Silva labels a historic management disaster.
The IMF Illusion: Why the state has zero bargaining leverage and who is actually dictating the country's financial future.
The "Tax-Only" Trap: How self-proclaimed socialists transformed into ultra-neoliberals overnight, leaving everyday citizens to bear the brunt.
The 2027 Cliff: Why the market is completely paralyzed ahead of March 2027, and the structural implosion no one else is warning you about.
