Aneetha Warusavitarana (Research Manager at the Advocata Institute) was feautured on the newest episode of 'Talk of the Town' on Yes 101 on June 14 speaking on the much debated fuel price hike.

'We need to face the reality of the situation that Sri Lanka needs to purchase fuel. Then you need to think of how this must be done in a sustainable manner so you don't see intermittent increases that invariably end up hurting the consumer. And the solution to that I believe, is to introduce a price formula.
