150 international companies to be recognised
The Global Commerce Excellence Awards 2012, under the guidance and leadership of the Governor of the Central Bank Ajith Nivard Cabraal, will be held for the second time on 13 December at the newly-refurbished Ceylon Continental Hotel.
This unique awards ceremony which was held for the first time in 2011 had a unique theme too, where Sri Lankan large corporates, chambers, government institutions and individuals were recognised for their contribution to the national economy during the period 1985-2009, when terrorism was trying to destabilise the economy and bring down Sri Lanka. It was the risks and challenges taken by the Sri Lankan business community that withstood the threat and moved the country forward with difficulty.
