China’s Ambassador to Sri Lanka, Qi Zhenhong, says China will soon provide 100 modern luxury buses powered by electricity to the country.
He explained that this decision was taken with the aim of reducing the significant environmental pollution caused by fuel usage.
The Ambassador further noted that the price of each bus planned to be supplied is approximately USD 225,000.
Ambassador Qi Zhenhong made these remarks yesterday (22) during meetings with the Chief Prelate of the Malwathu Chapter, Most Venerable Thibbatuwawe Sri Sumangala Thera, and the Chief Prelate of the Asgiri Chapter, Most Venerable Warakagoda Sri Gnanarathana Thera. (Newswire)
