So says the Government of Sri Lanka in a bid to fight this countries energy crisis.
Good idea, or is it? The rich will be able to pay the duty, just like many 4×4 drivers pay for fuel in the UK.
How many poor tea pickers in Sri Lanka can afford large energy consuming electrical goods anyway?
Well at least taxes will bring in money for the Government. It’s what is done with it then that matters. Build solar collectors, wind turbines or wave energy? We can live in hope. At least they are making an effort which is more than can be said for the Bush Administration or much of Europe. We are too good at talking and debating or ‘fiddling while Rome burns.”
