ABSTRACT : Despite continued political and social unrest and a lower thanexpected paddy harvest due to flooding, the Sri Lankan economyachieved a substantial 5% real GDP growth rate during 1984.Moreover, both the overall budget deficit and the deficit inthe current account of the balance of payments were reducedsignificantly. A large part of these improvements, however,was the result of unusually high tea export prices. At thesame time, long-term growth trends in several major sectors ofthe economy remained low. This underscores the continuedvulnerability of the Sri Lankan economy to fluctuations in teaearnings and the need to develop new areas of growth if livingstandards are to continue to rise. Based on a review of thelink between Government policy and past performance, the primaryfocus of the report is on those policy changes in the overallincentive framework which are needed for continued growth inthe future. Emphasis is placed on sector-wide policies inagriculture and industry. The report then illustrates howimplementation of these policies would lead to a developmentscenario which would generate highex rates of growth, whilemaintaining internal and external financial stability. Thedownside risks of not following appropriate economic policiesand the resulting slowdown in growth and build-up of externaldebt is also illustrated in alternative scenarios. The reportcon-ludes by emphasizing the vital role of the aid community inthe achievement of Sri Lanka's development objectives.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

i. After almost ten years of low growth, Sri Lanka introduced a newdevelopment strategy during the late 1970s, and the economy made good economicprogress in several ways; output, employment and investment recorded substan-tial increases. GDP grew at 5.7% per annum in real terms between 1977 and1984. The rapid growth in paddy output was most impressive, with the resultthat rice imports declined from an average of 33% of total rice consumptionduring 1970-77 to only 12% during 1978-83. Today the country has virtuallyreached self-sufficiency in rice. The ambitious public investment program,dominated by the massive Mahaweli irrigation and power development, wasequally noteworthy; it was designed to create new sources of long-term growth.In support of this program, the country secured unprecedented levels of exter-nal aid.

ii. Some of the policies which made these achievements possible, however,also led to serious financial imbalances. For example, as the public invest-ment program gained momentum, it grew beyond the country's resourceavailabilities, thus contributing to unsustainable budgetary and balance ofpayments deficits and to undesirable levels of foreign commercial borrowing.More importantly, the imbalances in the budget and in the balance of paymentswere aggravated by an inadequate resource mobilization effort by the publicsector and by the existence of an overall policy environment which was notconducive to growth in several major subsectors of the economy, and especiallythe export sector. Exchange rate policy was of primary importance. Followingthe unification and depreciation of the exchange rate in 1977, the Sri Lankanrupee has more or less ccntinuously appreciated in real terms, thereby movingrelative incentives in favor of non-traded activities and against sectors suchas agriculture and industry. Within agriculture, paddy production was theexception: it was not taxed directly; prices were allowed to rise to worldmarket levels; inputs were subsidized; other government spending such asMahaveli directly assisted paddy; and it received substantial research andextension assistance. Other agricultural subsectors performed relativelypoorly. This was especially true of the tree crop sector, which was subjectto high export taxes and continued weak management in the state plantations.Industrial growth was also low. Although import tariffs were used to providehigher protection to manufacturing, the growth opportunities created by thisinward-looking policy were limited by the small size of the domestic market.Moreover, the tariff structure protected existing firms but discouraged thecreation of new industries, while the performance of publicly owned manufac-turing enterprises, which still contribute about 40% of manufacturing valueadded, was particularly poor. Export growth based largely on tourism andgarments was sporadic. Excluding export earnings from the latter twoactivities, the real growth rate of exports during 1979-84 was barely 2.1% peryear. Export earnings have remained concentrated on a few products, with teaand rubber alone accounting for half of total merchandise export value in1984.

iii. Despite the considerable political and social unrest, real GDP grew at5% in 1984, matching the 1983 growth rate. After several years of precariousfinancial conditions, 1984 saw a significant reduction in both the externaland internal deficits. As a share of CDP, the overall budget deficit declinedfrom 13.4% in 1983 to 10.2% in 1984, while the current account deficit in thebalance of payments declined from 12.4% in 1983 to 3.7% in 1984. Net interna-tional reserves rose by $305 million. These achievements were partly theresult of Government policy, including the adoption of restrictive creditpolicies towards the private sector, the introduction of new revenue raisingmeasures and the containment of public spending. Yet the dominant factor inexplaining these developments was tea; export earnings from tea rose by $267million or the equivalent of 4.4% of GDP, while government revenue from teaexport taxes rose by Rs 2,794 million, the equivalent of 1.8% of GDP.

iv. The sudden decline in tea prices during early 1985 underscores thecontinued vulnerability of the Sri Lankan economy and hence the need to pursuepolicies which will stimulate growth in new activities. The two primary areasof growth in the recent past, viz., paddy and public investment supported bylarge concessionary foreign capital inflows, are expected to slow. As riceself-sufficiency is now being reached, this sector is likely to be a lessimportant source of growth in the future. In addition, public investment isunlikely to -- and indeed should not - expand very rapidly, in part becauseconcessionary aid inflows are expected to level off. Yet, if Sri Lanka is toabsorb the yearly addition to the active labor force and raise welfare levels,it is vital to maintain output growth rates of the order of 5% per annum. Theprimary issue facing the country, therefore, is to design and implementpolicies which will generate growth in alternative activities, especiallyexports. In addition, if growth is to be attained within a sustainable finan-cial framework, issues of investment strategy and domestic resource mobi-lization will also need to be addressed.

v. The Government is well aware of these problems and, as demonstratedby the 1985 budget, has continued the process of policy reform. The 1985budget introduced three new policy initiatives related to trade taxes, namelyimport tariff reform, a change in export taxes on tree crops, and a proposalto establish stabilization funds for tea and rubber. The import tariff reformis the first step in a phased program to reduce the variance in effectiveprotection and lower the average level of protection. The Government showedconsiderable resolve in pushing forward with this reform despite much internalopposition. The change in tree crop taxation, which accompanied the introduc-tion of the Medium Term Investment Program for the state plantations, resultedin an overall reduction in the tax burden on tree crops and thus helpedrestore producer incentives in the sector. A decision was also made to estab-lish stabilization funds for tea and rubber as a countercyclical measuredesigned to reduce macro-economic fluctuations in an economy dependent onprimary commodity exports with wide price fluctuations. In addition to thesebudgetary actions, the Government's report on a National Agricultural, Foodand Nutrition Strategy lays out a framework for important reforms in thesupport services which would greatly assist in creating conditions for

broader-based agricultural growth. Also, to help develop a consistentindustrial policy framework, the Government has formed a high level IndustrialPolicy Committee, and it has continued to press hard to initiate reform of thepublic enterprise sector. These are major steps in moving towards an incen-tive framework which will allocate and utilize resources more efficiently.More needs to be done, however, if the Government is to achieve its objectiveof a rate of economic growth of at least 5% per annum in the coming years.

vi. Economic projections for Sri Lanka are more than normally uncertainbecause of the current social and political tensions in the country. Thereport's projections Assume that substantial progress will be made in resolv-ing the communal conflict. The analysis suggests that a 5% per annum rate ofeconomic growth is feasible and the current comfortable internationalreserves' position provides a good background against which to introducefurther policy reform. It is recognized, however, that the volatile domesticsituation may make the type of policy shifts advocated here difficult toimplement. This argues for patience, but it does not negate the importance ofcontinuing the process of reform.

vii. Recent growth rates in agriculture, when import substitution in ricewas the major driving force, are unlikely to be repeated. Nevertheless, therehabilitation of the tree crop sector together with a determined effort atagricultural diversification and continued but slower growth in paddy shouldlead to a fairly high rate of expansion of some 3.6% per year during the nextfive years. The annual real growth rate of industry, on the other hand,should accelerate from 3.5% during 1979-84 to 4.8% during the next five yearsbased on several anticipated developments. Processing traditional exports,which constitutes about one quarter of value added in industry, should grow at2 to 3% per annum, as opposed to stagnation in the past. Exports ofmanufactures, which make up some 15% of industrial value added, shouldincrease at 10% per annum given adequate incentives. Other industrial outputshould expand at 4.5 to 5.0% per annum, on the expectation that publicmanufacturing enterprises will be rationalized and the demand for domesticmanufactures will increase in response to rising real incomes and anappropriate exchange rate policy.

viii. The diversification of growth in both the agricultural and industrialsectors will need to focus on export markets and efficient importsubstitution. This means, in turn, providing appropriate incentives -- theexchange rate and trade taxes cum subsidy policies; providing support servicesincluding research and extension; developing infrastructure, especially roadsand rehabilitating existing ass3ts; and, pursuing institutional reforms,especially in respect of public enterprises and financial markets. It must beadded that the success of this strategy depends crucially upon continuedgrowth in, and unrestricted access to, world export markets.

ix. It was mentioned earlier that the Government has initiated some sig-nificant reforms in agriculture designed to revitalize parts of the sector.If these initiatives are to yield maximum benefits, they need to be set within

Page 12: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

an overall strategy designed to encourage the most efficient use of landresources. The investment in Mahaweli is beginning to open up new areas ofirrigated land and the country's level of rice imports is minimal. Sri Lavkais, therefore, well placed to diversify into other crops without sacrificingthe Government's prime objective of rice self-sufficiency. The challenge willbe to create a policy framework which encourages farmers to increase yieldsfrom existing crops and to move land out of paddy in some areas into alterna-tive crops. The latter development is more likely to occur where the returnto producing alternative crops is high and the domestic policy biases in favorof paddy are reduced. This will take time because farmers often perceivepaddy as an "insurance" crop, i.e., it does not have to be traded to providenutrition, farmers are familiar with optimal cultivation practices, andGovernment policy is designed to support paddy.

x. A program of reforms is required that reduces the risk and raises therelative return to the farmer of moving land into its most productive use.Such a program will include incentive, support service and institutionalcomponents. The first step should be to restore producer incentives by allow-ing international prices to have a greater influence on the relative returnsto different crops with due regard to stabilization objectives. This wouldentail restructuring taxation and subsidy policies around a more neutralframework, which includes cost recovery on publicly provided inputs such asirrigation water or fertilizer. This would also necessarily imply broadeningthe tax base in agriculture in order to equalize the tax effects on differentcrops. Second, there is a need to renew efforts to channel more resourcesinto the necessary support framework. Improved research and extension serv-ices for a wider variety of crops and the rehabilitation and maintenance ofthe infrastructure in rural areas appear to be high priorities. In addition,whenever the opportunity arises, institutional reform should be pressedforward, both to reduce direct Government involvement in production, marketingor distribution and to consolidate and rationalize the remaining administra-tive structure.

xi. As indicated, the Government has also begun to tackle in earnestseveral important constraints affecting the industrial sector. These initia-tives must now be pursued further. The phased process of tariff reform shouldbe continued and certain anomalies in the first stage corrected; theseinclude the exceptions which were allowed as well as the increase in BusinessTurnover Taxes payable on imports which partially offset the reduction inimport duties. Concrete action to reform the public enterprise sector shouldbe initiated early since this process is likely to take time. Above all it iscrucial for the Government to establish and maintain the exchange rate at alevel which will keep Sri Lanka internationally competitive in a wide range ofexporting and import substituting activities.

Kii. In pursuit of the growth objective it is also crucial that financialstability be maintained. To that end, the ratio of investment to GDP willhave to be reduced from the average of 29.4% during 1980-84 to around 26.0%during the next five years and the national savings rate will have to increase

Page 13: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-v-

from 16.4% of GDP during 1980-84 to close to 20.0%. The reduction in theinvestment rate and the increase in the national savings rate will depend to alarge extent an budgetary policies. Private investment is projected toincrease as a share of GDP from 12.0% in 1980-84 to close to 14.0% during1985-89 in response to the growth policies discussed above. Public investmentwill therefore have to be reduced from more than 17.0% during 1980-84 to about12.0% during 1985-89, a target which the Government itself has accepted. Onthe savings side, it is important to maintain private savings at the levelachieved in recent years; this means following a more flexible interest ratepolicy which offers a positive real rate of interest so as to attract privatesaving. Budgetary savings have been negative in most recent years. This isprojected to change as a result of a combination of expenditure cuts andrevenue raising measures. Thus, budgetary savings are expected to average 3%of GDP during the coming years. Reducing current spending may be difficult;there is a clear need to raise public sector salaries and the Government hasbegun to provide increased allocations for much needed spending on operationand maintenance. While several categories of current spending are fixedobligations and cannot be cut, there remain within the Sri Lankan budgetseveral items of expenditure in the areas of subsidies, transfers and advanceaccount payments which can be cut without efficiency Loss. There is a clearneed to review the desirability of continuing to subsidize producer inputs, ofproviding transfers and advance account payments to inefficient public cor-porations which cannot be expected to pay back, and there are many instanceswhere increased reliance on user charges must be pursued. Nevertheless, evenif the Government succeeds in controlling current spending, there will con-tinue to be a need to raise revenues and restructure the tax system in orderto reach the savings target. The challenges to continued good budgetarymanagement are illustrated by developments during early 1985. The unexpecteddecline in tea prices may make it difficult to reach the 1985 budget revenuetargets. At the same time, the Government continues to be uader a great dealof pres3ure to admit new expenditures, partly due to the windfall accumulationof reserves during 1984.

xiii. The attainment of the 5% growth objective also rests on some importantassumptions regarding external factors. The accumulation of reserves whichoccurred in 1984 has established a base from which the immediate balance ofpayments outlook is healthy under most scenarios. Even with a successfulexport drive as assumed in this report, however, Sri Lanka will continue torequire substantial amounts of foreign assistance over the medium term. Inthe past the large resource gaps arising from successive budget deficits andslow export growth were financed by rapidly growing remittances and especiallyby the increased use of foreign concessionary capital made available bydonors. Remittances are unlikely to continue their past growth and conces-sionary capital has become much scarcer. The projections assume that remit-tances remain constant in real terms. Official grants are projected todecline even in current prices, while commitments of new concessionary loansremain constant in real terms at the current level of about $300 million.There is, however, projected to be some real increase in non-concessionaryfinancing from official sources, so that total commitments from official

Page 14: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-vi-

sources, loans and grants, are projected to remain constant in real terms.In the coming years the Sri Lankan economy will be forced to adjust to muchsmaller resource gaps than in the past and to rely partly on commercial bor-rowing to fill those gaps.

xiv. The balance of payments projections in this report depend, above all,on the restoration of international competitiveness; the significant realappreciation of the Sri Lankan rupee since 1977 must be reversed. In volumeterms export growth is projected to exceed import growth, although this willnot be the case in current prices during the next five years because ofdeteriorating terms of trade. The bulk of external finance needed during thenext few years to cover the current account deficit, amortization, repaymentsto the IMF and the addition to reserves, would come from official sources onhighly concessional. terms. New commitments from these sources, loans andgrants, would have to rise from $460 million in 1984 to $600 million by 1988.It should be noted that this level of commitments implies no growth in realterms. Commitments of official assistance have declined substantially fromthe peak of $800 million in 1981. In the past two years they have averagedabout $450 million a year, partly because both Government and donors made aconscious effort to limit the introduction of new projects in a public invest-ment program which had grown beyond the country's absorptive capacity.Current indications are that the aid donors are likely to make new commitmentsamounting to about $500 million during 1985. For 1986 we would also recommendto the donors a level of new aid commitments of the order of $500-550 million.This level of support is a vital component in the overall strategy of restruc-turing the Sri Lankan economy at the same time that foreign commercial borrow-ing is contained at a manageable level. Areas most urgently in need of sup-port include rehabilitation of existing irrigation schemes, completion ofdownstream work in Mahaweli, rehabilitation of the road network, power trans-mission and generation, and telecommunications. Financing of local expendi-tures in support of the Government's own efforts to raise public sectorsavings and reduce the overall budget deficit should also receive highpriority.

xv. Together with the strengthening of Sri Lanka's export sector thecountry would also gradually become creditworthy for increasing levels ofcommercial borrowing. The balance of payments projections in this reportassume that new commitments of private loans rise from $130 million in 1985to about $285 million by 1988. A substantial portion of this commercialborrowing would be related to cofinancing requirements for some large projectswith good economic justification, such as the major upcoming power projects.

xvi. With a concerted effort to build up exports, strong support fromdonors and prudence in che use of commercial debt, Sri Lanka's debt servicingburden will be manageable. The public debt service ratio implicit in thebalance of payments projections in this report, including IMF charges andrepurchases, rises to 18.8% in 1987 but then declines to 18.0% in 1988 and15.1% in 1994. The most crucial element in balance of payments management isto ensure that the export growth targets are achieved. If the Government were

Page 15: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-vii-

to maintain a high rate of investment and GDP growth through increasedreliance on foreign borrowing to compensate for the shortfall in exportreceipts, the external debt service ratio would quickly rise to unacceptablelevels, soon restricting the country's access to voluntary foreign capitalinflows. On the other hand, if the Government reacts to the weaker exportperformance by curbing investment and import growth and reducing the growth ofoutput, incomes and employment, the rate of growth of total consumption wouldeventually be reduced severely to unacceptably low levels, jeopardizing muchof the economic progress made during the past few years.

xvii. In sum, attaining the growth targets postulated in this report in thecontext of internal and external financial stability, entails a policy agendafor the Government which includes:

(1) an appropriate exchange rate policy and changes in trade taxesand subsidy policies to create a producer incentives' frameworkwhich is more neutral between different activities: thisincludes, among others, a further review of tree crop taxation,and continuation of the phased process of tariff reform;

(2) increased emphasis on support services, including research andextension, for broad-based agricultural growth;

(3) investment in infrastructure such as roads, rehabilitation andpower;

(4) concrete action towards public enterprise reform;

(5) a public investment program not exceeding around 12% of GDP; and

(6) an increase in public savings to around 3% of GDP through acombination of expenditure cuts and revenue increases.

To complement the above, the donor community should consider:

(1) maintaining total official commitments roughly constant in realterms in the future, and in the range of $500-550 million duringthe coming year;

(2) giving priority to meeting needs related to rehabilitation ofexisting irrigation schemes, completion of downstream work inMahaweli, rehabilitation of the road network, power transmissionand distribution, and telecommunications;

(3) continuing to finance local currency expenditures; and

(4) continuing to provide technical assistance to the Government.

Chapter I: RECENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS

A. Introduction

1. Sri Lanka recorded a substantial improvement in a number of macro-economic indicators in 1984 despite considerable political and social unrest.Real GDP grew at 5%, matching the 1983 growth rate. Given the disruption ofeconomic activity from physical damage and reduced private investment, thisrepresents a considerable achievement. In addition, there was a significantnarrowing of both the external and internal deficits, due partly to a con-tinued improvement in Sri Lanka's terms of trade and partly to Governmentpolicy. The reduced current account deficit in the balance of payments wasfinanced largely by concessionary foreign aid inflows. At the same time therewas an unprecedented $300 million accumulation of foreign exchange reserves,largely as a result of increased earnings from tea exports. The increase inavailable resources enabled the Governmeknt to reduce its overall demand fordomestic credit and its outstanding debt to the banking sector by a repaymentof Rs 2.6 billion. These favorable developments were supported by tightermonetary policy, which, coupled with improved food supplies later in the year,led to a reduction in the inflation rate to 9% during the 12-month periodending December 1984. The one negative trend in the macro-economic indicatorswas the steady appreciation of the currency. The rupee moved from Rs 25.2 perU.S. dollar at the beginning of 1984 to Rs 26.2 by December 1984, implying aconsiderable appreciation against almost all other major currencies.1/

2. A dominant factor in explaining the performahce of the economy in 1984were the favorable developments in the tea sector. Continued high tea pricescoupled with a 16% increase in output resulted in a marked increase in bothexport earnings and Government tax revenue. Other favorable factors werehigher coconut prices, the continued growth in garment exports, the recoveryof the manufacturing sector, and lower world inflation; unfavorable factorswere the reduced paddy and coconut crops and the decline in tourism.

3. While the above indicators reflect a strong economic performance in1984, there remain a number of structural weaknesses which the Government willneed to continue to address if the recent favorable growth rate is to besustained over the medium term. When one looks at the sectors of the economythat will have to provide growth in the future there is reason for someconcern. The good performance of 1984 at the same time underscores the vul-nerability of the economy to fluctuations in earnings in the tea sector.Without the policies needed to stimulate the growth of new exports and effi-cient import substitution activities, economic performance will not only

-2-

remain unnecessarily dependent on a few exogenous factors but the potentialfor future economic growth will also be limited.1/

4. The Government is well aware of this problem and, as demonstrated bythe 1985 budget, has continued the process of policy reform. The remainderof this chapter describes recent Government policy initiatives in the contextof a more detailed analysis of the sources of growth, monetary policy, thebalance of payments outcome and budget performance.

B. Macro-economic Developments

(a) Sources of Growth

5. The recent growth performance of the leading sectors and subsectorsis presented in Table 1. The past year represents something of a break withprevious trends in a number of ways. First, tea production registered animpressive 16% growth in volume over the drought-induced level of 1983,reversing the previous declining trend. Producers responded quickly to theimproved weather conditions, continued high world prices, and a renewedcommitment by the Government to rehabilitate the stagnating tree cropssector. The price rise in late 1983 through 1984, plus a recent adjustmentin the tax structure provided producers with the opportunity to earn substan-tial profits.

11 A discussion of medium-term trends under different policy scenarios isfound in Chapter II.

6. Second, the favorable weather conditions for tea had the oppositeeffect on paddy. Heavy flooding in certain regions early in 1984 resultingin a poor Maha crop, which normally accounts for about two-thirds of totalpaddy output during the year. Although the 1984 Yala crop was a record,paddy output declined by 3.5% in volume in 1984 after several years of almostuninterrupted growth. It is anticipated, however, that the 1985 Maha cropwill be good. The improved performance of the paddy sector has been the maincomponent in supporting agricultural growth in recent years. During 1977-84,value added in paddy increased by more than 4.5% per year in real terms; riceimports declined from an average 33% of total rice consumption during 1970-77to only 12% during 1978-83. Imports during 1984 amounted to only 40,000 NT,by far the lowest level in many years and equivalent to about 2% of totalconsumption. As a result of Government policies over the past few years,including investments in irrigation, strengthened support services forfarmers and the freeing of prices, the paddy sector has been considerablystrengthened and its vulnerability reduced. Without these improvements, thedecline in paddy output last year would have been even more pronounced, andthe need for imports much increased.

7. Much of the gain in paddy production has resulted from producers'response to improved incentives. The Government has withdrawn from interven-tion in both the direct procurement of rice (allowing private traders tomarket the produce which has lowered transaction costs) and in fixing marketprices. Domestic rice prices have been allowed to increase to parity withinternational prices which has resulted in an upward adjustment in the domes-tic selling price. The Government's role has been reduced to providing afloor price for domestic paddy and the use of stocks to stabilize the marketin times of supply shortages. Given present consumption patterns, thecountry has virtually reached rice self-sufficiency. However, the Governmentintends to pursue the goal of self-sufficiency in cereals further through thesubstitution of rice for imported wheat by altering relative prices. It isnot clear what the domestic resource costs of this policy are. Additionalincrements in rice output may become more costly to attain, and the benefitsof increased rice production must be weighed against the economic advantageof using the land for alternative crops either for the local market or forexports.

8. Third, the manufacturing sector recorded an unusually high growthrate in 1984. Part of this was directly related to the increase in teaproduction as demonstrated by the 9.0% growth in the export processingsubsector, and the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) operated at or nearfull capacity. The higher growth rate in 1984 also reflects a more generalrecovery from 1983 when output was constrained by continuous power shortages.The commissioning of some of the Mahaweli hydroelectric plants considerablyeased the situation, resulting in increased industrial capacity utilizationduring 1984. One area of suscained real growth in the manufacturing sectorwas garment exports. Due to increased demand caused by the strong recoveryof the U.S. economy plus entry into new product markets, garment manufac-turers were able to increase exports by 47% in nominal terms.

9. The growth performance of other sectors of the economy remainedsimilar to past trends. The output of agricultural commodities (other thantea and paddy discussed above) continued to grow slowly, especially exportcrops. While specific assistance has been provided for particular crops,under the guidance of the Export Development Board,1/ a number of otherfactors related to the supporting infrastructure, extension services andother components of the incentive structure, particularly the exchange rate,negated these positive incentives. A renewed effort at creating the environ-ment needed to stimulate a more efficient and diversified use of agriculturalresources is essential for future growth. The elements of such an effort arediscussed in Chapter II.

1/ For example, some success has been attained under the ExportDevelopment Board sponsored Village Export Promotion Scheme.

10. The same or similar shortcomings in incentives and infrastructureconstrained growth in new manufacturing activities. As discussed in thefollowing section, private sector investment actually experienced a sharpdecline. Although the reluctance to enter new investments is, in part, areaction to the increased uncertainty created by the continuation of ethnicviolence, part is due to inadequate policy measures. For example, theviability of a number of relatively new export-oriented manufacturingenterprises appears to be threatened by the appreciation of the real exchangerate.

11. Both the service and construction sectors were also adverselyaffected by Sri Lanka's domestic problems. Tourism declined below thealready low 1983 level, with an increase in cancellations occurring inNovember for the coming season. Construction activity has also slowed dueto the completion of a number of large projects and the general increase inuncertainty fostering a "wait and see"~ attitude before making investmentdecisions.

(b) Investment and Savings

12. Beginning in 1979, Sri Lanka allocated more than one-quarter of itsannual output to gross domestic investment. As shown in Table 2, in 1980 itreached the comparatively high ratio of one-third of GDP. The CentralGovernment, public corporations and the private sector all participated inthe investment boom, dominated by the construction of the massive Mahawelipower and irrigation system. As the accelerated portion of the Mahaweliprogram approached completion, the investment ratio began to fall; the slow-down in investment is apparent beginning in 1983 and continuing in 1984 whenthe ratio dropped to 26% of GDP. In the absence of reliable disaggregatedinvestment data, it is difficult to evaluate the source of declining invest-ment in the public sectors. However, the drop in private investment isdisturbing since it represents a major source of growth in the economy and isexpected to provide an even greater impulse to output growth in the future.Part of this decline probably reflects the uncertainty created by the ethnicviolence which escalated in July 1983. Both domestic and foreign privateinvestors have been cautious in making new commitments as they wait to seehow the domestic situation develops.

13. The financing of the boom is clearly reflected in Table 2. Grossdomestic savings as a share of GDP declined in the late 1970s and then stayedflat during the period of the rapid build-up of investment until 1983 and1984. Thus remittances (reflected in net private transfers from abroad) frommigrant workers, mostly in the Middle East, helped offset the decline in

Page 21: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-6-

domestic savings, but most of the resource requirements was financed byincreased concessioiary and commercial foreign capital inflows.1/

14. While the improved terms of trade for 1983 resulted in a moderatelyreduced need for foreign savings, the latter declined sharply in 1984 due toa significant increase in domestic savings. Private savings increased byclose to 3% of GDP and, more significantly, public savings became stronglypositive for the first time since 1977, also increasing by slightly more than3% of CDP. In addition, national savings increased at a time when privateremittances declined as a share of GDP due to the weakened demand for foreignlabor in the Middle East market, following the fall in oil prices. Most ofthe increase in savings derives from higher tea prices, which has raisedprivate incomes and public revenues. It would appear that individuals andGovernment view 1984 as something of a boom year during which savings shouldbe increased to provide precautionary balances against future unexpecteddeclines in income.

1/ The concessionary and commercial inflows are further discussed below inconnection with the budget and the balance of payments.

(c) Monetary Policy, Inflation and the Exchange Rate

15. The decline in private sector investment caused a weakened demand forcredit. This also coincided with a reduction in net credit to theGovernment, due to the improved revenue derived from tea, and with severalpolicy measures designed to tighten domestic credit expansion. In an attemptto slow the rate of growth of domestic liquidity, the authorities introducedquantitative credit restrictions to the private sector, resumed auctions ofCentral Bank securities and increased the marginal reserve requirements onbank liabilities. Although the expansion in money supply remained high (at16.8% for the 12-month period ending December 1984), this does represent animprovement over 1983.

16. The decline in the growth of liquidity was an important reason forthe decline in inflation. After a higher inflation rate in the early part ofthe year had pushed the average mid-year Colombo cost-of-living index up to16.6%, inflation declined significantly towards the end of 1984 (to 9% fromDecember to December) partly because of the increased domestic availabilityof important food crops. The combination of increased domestic savings,tight monetary policy and a lower inflation rate has reversed the previousupward pressure on interest rates, causing both deposit and lending rates todecline recently. If inflation and the public sector's demand for credit canbe held in check, and leaving aside the climate of uncertainty noted above, afurther reduction in interest rates could help provide an important boost toprivate sector investment.

17. Inflation is also being suppressed by the Government's exchange ratepolicy. The Sri Lankan rupee has been allowed to depreciate only slightlyagainst the U.S. dollar in recent months, which, together with the strengthof the latter, has meant a real appreciation against all other majorcurrencies. While the objective of the Government's exchange rate policyunderstandably is to avoid domestic price increases in a few basic consumeritems during a period of social and political tension, this policy has impor-tant negative implications for the longer-term growth of the economy. Itretards the development of new growth activities, i.e., non-traditionalexports and efficient import substitutes, and thereby delays the creation ofadditional employment and income earning opportunities.

C. The Balance of Payments

18. The balance of payments outcome in 1984 was a dramatic reversal fromprevious years. This is shown in Table 3 below. Export receipts increasedby some $400 million to $1.75 billion while imports remained constant at $2.1billion. As a result, the current account deficit, which averaged 16.3% ofGDP in 1980-82, dropped from 12.4% in 1983 to 3.7% in 1984. Net interna-tional reserves, which had declined since 1980 and stood at minus $21 million

Page 24: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-9-

by the end of 1983, rose by $305 million during 1984.1/ Sy the end of 1984,gross official reserves stood at about $600 million, the equivalent of 3.1months of imports of goods and services.

19. Merchandise exports increased by 39% in nominal terms mainly owing toa strong performance of tea and garments exports. Tea export volume rose by30% from a drought-induced low level of 158 million kgs in 1983, while teaexport prices rose by 36Z.2/ The,increase in volume was at least in part aresponse to the higher prices, improved producer margins and a series ofmeasures taken by the public corporations to provide management and workerincentives in the field. Garments exports increased by 47% in nominal terms,because of a strong effort by the industry to increase its output and exportsof products in non-quota categories, primarily to the U.S. market. Thestrong export performance of tea and garments was somewhat dampened by thecontinued stagnation of most other merchandise exports. Moreover, thepolitical uncertainty also contributed to a decline in earnings from tourism,while the recession in the Middle East resulted in stagnant workers'remittances.

20. On the import side, merchandise imports in 1984 remained at roughlythe 1983 level in current dollars. A sizeable increase in the imports ofintermediate goods was offset by reduced spending for imports of food, otherconsumer goods and petroleum. Apart from price declines such as petroleum,major factors contributing to the decline in imports include the substantialdrop in rice imports, credit restrictions in the case of non-essentialimports and the overall climate of uncertainty in Sri Lanka which depressedprivate investment activity and appar-itly contributed to a rundown ofstocks.

21. The current account deficit declined to $220 million, equivalent to3.7% of GDP. The increase in the level of export earnings was responsiblefor a decline in the public debt service ratio from 17.7% in 1983 to 14.2% in1984. Without the rise in export prices the debt service ratio would haveremained at close to 18% in 1984. A key favorable factor affecting thebalance of payments has been the 33% improvement in the terms of trade since1982, both because of rising export prices and declining import prices. Theroughly $500 million decline in the current account deficit since 1982 isequivalent to this terms of trade improvement.

22. The positive balance of payments developments in 1984, however,should not obscure basic long-term trends. The most important of these isthe low volume growth of exports, and the concentration of earnings on a fewproducts. For example, tea and rubber alone accounted for 51% of totalmerchandise export value in 1984. With regard to traditional products, andabstracting from fluctuations due to the weather, the export volumes of tea,rubber and coconuts have essentially stagnated since 1978 and, especially inthe case of rubber and coconuts, declined when compared with the early 1970s.Even in the case of tea, the 1984 export level was only 6% above thatachieved in 1978 and below that of 1970. These trends result from a neglectof necessary investments during a prolonged nationalization process in theearly 1970s, followed by the creation of numerous and poorly coordinatedministries and serious managerial problems in the state plantations. Inaddition, the overall incentive framework provided low to negative marginsfor both public and private producers. In recent years, however, theGovernment has been actively pursuing policies designed to reverse the trendsof the 1970s, culminating in the Medium Term Investment Program (MTIP) forthe State Corporations (Chapter II).

23. The real growth of non-traditional exports is difficult to judge inthe absence of reliable price deflators. However, in the case of otheragricultural exports (i.e., apart from tea, rubber and coconuts), these havestagnated in nominal dollar terms since 1978 and in fact declined during thepast couple of years. Starting from an almost insignificant base, exports ofother manufactured goods, apart from garments, grew fairly rapidly in valueuntil 1982; they have stagnated since then. The one success story amongmerchandise exports in recent years is garments. It results from a combina-tion of Sri Lanka being a new entrant in a quota-dominated export area andefficient domestic manufacturing based on imported inputs. Two other sourcesof foreign exchange earnings, tourism and workers' remittances, both startingfrom a low base, grew rapidly until 1982. Since then, earnings from bothsources have leveled off.

24. The poor overall performance of exports reflects the absence of anincentive framework, encouraging efficient export or import substitutionactivities. Policies are now being put inzo place to revitalize the"traditional" export sector. In addition, the Export Development Board hasinstituted a number of export promotion measures designed to assist specificnon-traditional exporters.1/ Yet, in terms of the major price componentsdetermining a country's competitiveness -- the exchange rate and the tariffstructure -- policy has been biased in favor of production for the domesticmarket. In recognition of this problem, the Government, in its 1985 budgetsubmission, has taken a major step to improve resource allocation iy commenc-ing a process of tariff reform. However, exchange rate policy has continuedto allow the rupee to appreciate, thus encouraging imports, moving incentivestowards non-traded activities and discouraging the development of non-traditional exports.

25. Between 1978 and 1982, responding to the liberalization policies andto increases in the level of investment expenditure, imports grew con-siderably faster than exporLs in volume terms, but they have declined mar-ginally since. Major elements in constraining import growth since 1982 havebeen the continued successful program of import substitution in rice and therestraint in investment spending.

26. Balance of payments developments in Sri Lanka during the past fewyears have also been influenced heavily by budgetary policy. Large budgetarydeficits, starting in 1980, increased the demand for imports and necessitatedundesirable levels of foreign commercial borrowing. More recently, theGovernment has taken firm action to reduce these deficits, yet financing themhas resulted in a fairly rapid increase in the debt service ratio. Inaddition, movements in the international terms of trade clearly play a majorrole in bil.ance of payments developments in an economy such as Sri Lanka.While the terms of trade during 1983/84 are roughly at the level of 1978/79,the substantial deterioration in between, complicated macro-economic manage-ment and was partly responsible for the need to resort to high levels offoreign borrowing and the increased debt service burden.

D. Public Finance

(a) Introduction

27. In order to place public finance developments during 1984 as well asthe 1985 budget into the proper perspective, it is worthwhile to review somelonger-term trends in government finances as illustrated by Table 4. Theoverall picture shows total public expenditures increasing rapidly withouta corresponding increase in revenues. The result is a budgetary deficitincreasing from 5.8% of GDP in 1977 to a peak of 23.1% in 1980 and declining

1/ These are discussed in more detail in Chapter II.

thereafter to 10% in 1984. Until 1979 the higher expenditure levels wereoffset by increased domestic borrowing and significant additional inflows ofconcessionary aid and grants, even to the point that the Government couldcontinue to add to reserves. However, in 1980 the resources needed to com-plete ongoing public investments began to exceed the inflow of concessionaryforeign finance and the Government turned to commercial foreign loans andcontinued high levels of domestic borrowing to finance the resource gap.This resulted in increased debt service payments which, given Sri Lanka'spoor export performance and declining terms of trade up to 1983, began toraise important questions concerning the overall creditworthiness of theeconomy. Ir addition, the large budgetary deficits resulted in increasedrates of inflation and an appreciation of the currency. Having been providedwith a renewed mandate in the national referendum/elections of 1982, theGovernment has succeeded in reducing budget deficits from a high 17.3% of GDPin that year to an estimated 10.2% in 1984.

28. Part of the explanation for the unsustainable deficits experiencedin the early 1980s has been a persistently weak public revenue mobilizationeffort in relation to expenditure levels. In the face of declining worldmarket prices and reduced domestic output of tree crops,1/ and thus reducedearnings from export duties, there was an inadequate effort to tap alterna-tive sources of revenue. Indeed, as shown in Table 4, the share of non-export tax receipts in CDP in 1982 was below that of 1978. The subsequentimproved revenue effort in 1983 and 1984 (to 18.9% and 21.8% of GDPrespectively) originated from three main sources: the marked increase in theworld price of tea, the treatment of Central Bank profits as revenue; and anumber of other short-term taxation measures related to specificdevelopments, e.g., the rehabilitation levy following the July 1983 riots.

1/ The factors leading to a decline in tree crop output are discussed inChapter II in the section dealing with agriculture.

(b) 1984 Budget Outcome

29. The estimated actual total revenue collection in 1984 exceeded budgetestimates by over Rs 6.0 billion or 4% of CDP; it represents a significantimprovement in performance. Part of this revenue gain is due to higher thanexpected inflation; over Rs 4.0 billion is derived from additional taxes oninternational trade, of which Rs 2.5 billion is solely due to higher thananticipated tea prices and volumes; and Rs 1.5 billion is the gain fromadditional import duties. While increased tariffs contributed to the revenuegain, a significant share came from an unexpected change in the compositionof imports towards higher taxed commodities.

30. The other significant source of additional revenue was from non-taxsources. This amounted to approximately Rs 1.3 billion above the 1984 budgetforecast, and originated essentially from a 50% after tax "profits dividend"extracted from all public corporations (inclusive of banks and manufacturingenterprises); and a large capital receipt from CPC. CPC was in a position tomake this payment due to higher than expected profits resulting fromfavorable relative price movements.l/

31. Current expenditures in 1984 were held close to budget estimates withadditional expenditures being limited to transfers and subsidies and defense-related programs. Advance accounts expenditures, however, exceeded budgetestimates by Rs 2.2 billion. These payments were made to a variety of publicagencies or enterprises, including the Insurance Corporation (to settleclaims arising from the July 1983 riots), the Fertilizer ManufacturingCorporation, the Cement Corporation, the Ceylon Transport Board and a fewother public manufacturing enterprises; the monies were provided to coverunexpected operating losses or capital costs. Advance accounts expenditureshave often exceeded budget estimates due primarily to the poor performance ofa few public enterprises. If budget targets are to be met, this category ofexpenditure needs to be carefully estimated and controlled, perhaps with somepenalty applied to those users of the funds that persistently are unable tomake repayments.21

32. Capital expenditures exceeded budget estimates by Rs 4.6 billion,with foreign aid plus bookkeeping entries accounting for about Rs 2.7billion. The remaining Rs 1.9 billion was accounted for by additional expen-ditures on Mahaweli (Rs 800 million), defense (Rs 824 million) plus a number

1/ Capital receipts are included in non-tax revenue because they areusually insignificant. The payment involved the total repayment of aloan advanced to CPC by the Treasury in 1979.

2/ This could take the form of denying future access to budgetary funds.However, in the case of loss-making public corporations, a remedy wouldnecessitate more direct reform of the enterprises themselves.

-16-

of additional projects related to transport, highways, health andtelecommunications. Much of the latter type of expenditure involved financ-ing the local costs of foreign-aided projects or important rehabilitationwork due to the flood damage in early 1984. While such expenditures may havebeen necessary, the magnitude of the overexpenditure, especially with regardto Mahaweli, indicates continued weakness in budget planning. The WorldBank's 1984 Country Economic Memorandum suggested that certain projectsappeared to be underfunded and that a 15% underexpenditure provision on topof a 10% across-the-board cut looked unrealistic and would in many casesproduce undesirable results.1/ The 1984 outcome bears out this argument andillustrates the difficulties of attaining expenditure reductions by relyingon across-the-board measures rather than cuts in specific projects.

33. Although expenditures did exceed revenue gains, the increased inflowof concessionary aid and grants enabled the Government to finance the 1984budget deficit without recourse to foreign commercial borrowing. Inaddition, the domestic borrowing from non-bank sources exceeded financingrequirements thus allowing the Government, for the first time since 1977,to make a net repayment to the domestic banking system of Rs 2.6 billion.Overall, the 1984 budgetary policies were commendably prudent.

(c) The 1985 Budget

34. The 1985 budget introduced a number of new policy measures repre-senting important steps in moving towards an incentive framework which willallocate and utilize resources more efficiently. There were three majorpolicy initiatives related to trade taxes, namely import tariff reform, thechange in export taxes on tree crops, and the proposal to establish stabi-lization funds for tea and rubber. As these steps have implications extend-ing beyond strictly budgetary concerns, they are discussed in detail inChapter II dealing with agricultural and industrial policy. The followingparagraphs are confined to issues of revenue mobilization and expenditurepolicy.

35. On the revenue side, the 1985 budget is a mixture of revenue raisingand reducing measures which, on the bottom line, results in revenues declin-ing by a forecast 1.3% of CDP. The major revenue reductions result from therevised export taxes on tree crops,2/ reduced import duties due to theimplementation of the Presidential Tariff Commission's (PTC) recommendations,selective reductions in the Business Turnover Tax (BTT) for domesticindustries, and higher exemption limits plus wider tax bands for income,

1/ That is, a slowdown in the implementation of aided projects with theassociated loss in benefits.

2/ Expected revenue loss due to taxation reform is Rs 390 million for tea,Rs 270 million for rubber and Rs 80 million for coconut.

wealth, and dividend tax. In addition, if the Government implements the Rs 3per kg payment into the stabilization fund for tea, as announced in thebudget, this would entail an approximately Rs 600 million loss in revenuewhich is presently not accounted for in the budget estimate. Payments intothe stabilization fund represent a revenue loss for the budget because suchfunds are to be "sterilized" to prevent a corresponding increase in thedomestic money supply. The revenue losses which follow from the change inthe taxation structure for tree crops, the creation of a stabilization fund,and the reform of the tariff schedule are an unavoidable short-term outcomeof improving the incentive framework. However, the Government doesanticipate that the loss from the income tax change will be more than offsetby better enforcement of the existing tax law. It is expected that theGovernment will provide the necessary staff and incentives to the tax collec-tion agency to achieve this target. It must be added that the decline in teaprices in early 1985 was not anticipated in estimating the 1985 budgetrevenues. This implies that the Government will have to either raiserevenues from alternative sources or cut expenditures if increased borrowingis to be avoided.

36. Current expenditure is budgeted to increase marginally from 16.6% ofGDP in 1984 to 16.8% in 1985. However, total expenditure is forecast todecline from 32.0% of GDP in 1984 to 29.2% in 1985, due to tighter control ofadvance accounts and a further reduction in capital expenditure. Although areduction in current expenditures could be achieved by adjustments in thesubsidies and transfers paid to households and public. corporations, othercomponents such as interest payments, pensions and to some extent wages arefairly fixed. In addition, any further reduction in total transfers andsubsidies (they have fallen from 11.0% of GDP in 1978 to 4.6% in 1984) needsto be selective if the poor are not to suffer unduly. Although theGovernment should be encouraged to further reduce the subsidization of bothproducer inputs and inefficient public corporations, which amount to 5.4% ofbudgeted current expenditures or almost 1.0% of GDP, the simultaneous reduc-tion in direct income transfers to the lowest income group could have severerepercussions on l;-;ng standards.

37. In an effort to redress the past neglect of O&M expenditure on exist-ing public capital assets, the 1985 budget introduced Project 101, which hasbeen allocated the equivalent of 10% of planned capital expenditures in 1985specifically to address this type of essential work. The largest allocationswithin Project 101 are Highways (26%), Railways (22%), Mahaveli (9.6%), LocalGovernment, Housing and Construction (9.2%), and Lands and Land Development(6.1%). During this first year of operation the Government will have tocarefully assess whether Project 101 has been allocated sufficient resources,whether priorities have been correctly established and whether the financialprovision in the budget does actually result in the physical implementationof the needed maintenance and rehabilitation work.

38. A greater degree of uncertainty surrounds the advance accounts andcapital expenditure forecasts. The 0.1% of GDP budgeted for advance accountsin 1985 appears to be overly optimistic; 0.2% of GDP was budgeted for advanceaccounts in 1984 whereas actual expenditure is estimated at 1.6% of GDP. The

Page 33: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-18-

pressure for increased advance account expenditure can be expected to comefrom certain public enterprises that consistently make unplanned claims onbudgetary resources, and possibly from defense-related programs. Neitherstraightforward efficiency nor income distribution arguments support thecontinued financing of publicly owned manufacturing enterprises.l/ TheGovernment has, however, expressed a commitment to avoid a repetition of lastyear's outcome where a number of claims for advance account financing wereallowed late in the year.

39. The level of capital expenditure budgeted for 1985 also appears torepresent an underestimation. First, the original 1985 budget estimatedcapital expenditures at Rs 1 billion below the Government's five-year publicinvestment program (PIP). Indeed, the PIP (1985-89) indicates that the levelof capital expenditures will continue to exceed the total non-expansionaryfinance available to the Government for 1986 and 1987. Second, the relianceon a 15% across-the-board cut in planned expenditures, rather than therephasing of specific projects, continues to represent a weakness in capitalbudgeting which may result in overexpenditure. Although the argument hasbeen made that line ministries will meet the expenditure targets by makingselective cuts within their own ministries, this is unsatisfactory because:it leaves open the question of whether the allocation among ministries isappropriate; and some line ministries do not have the manpower capacity toundertake prioritized reductions in expenditure. The end result may beeither a slower implementaticn of a number of projects which delays thebenefit stream, or higher capital expenditures. In addition, the one iden-tified cut relates to Mahaweli which, based on past performance, is one ofthe line ministries most capable of implementing planned expenditures.

40. In sum, the 1985 budget introduced several important policy initia-tives designed to improve efficiency and economic growth over the mediumterm. This reaffirms the Government's commitment and ability to undertakeneeded economic reforms along with their attendant short-run costs even whenconfronted with a tense domestic situation. The Government deserves fullcredit for these actions. However, the budget is likely to come under severepressure during the coming months. The sudden decline in tea prices duringearly 1985 may make it especially difficult to reach the revenue targets. Atthe same time, the Government will be under a great deal of pressure to admitnew expenditures partly due to the "windfall" accumulation of reserves in1984. Likely candidates are energy or defense-related projects. As ourprojections below indicate, it is crucial for favorable medium-term prospectsthat the foreign exchange reserves not be rapidly depleted due to additionalpublic sector expenditures. Such an outcome would deprive the economy of thesavings needed to finance expenditures throughout the rest of the decade soas to minimize subsequent dependence on foreign commercial borrowing.

Chapter II: MEDIUM-TERM CROWTH PROSPECTS AND POLICIES

A. Introduction - Prospects and Policy Issues

41. It must be recognized from the outset that the social and politicaltensions in Sri Lanka could become the determining factor in the country'smedium-term economic prospects and thus render any projections more thannormally uncertain. It has been assumed, necessarily, that sufficientprogress will be made toward resolving the communal conflict so that it willnot become the dominating influence in future economic developments. Thefollowing discussion covers the primary economic development policy issuesconfronting Sri Lanka; presents a "base scenario" for sustained growth inconditions of external and internal financial stability during the nextdecade; reviews in some detail the type of policy reforms required to generatethat growth; and provides some comments on the downside risks. It should bestressed that the Government is already well aware of the importance of thepolicy shifts needed and, as discussed in Chapter I, has been adjusting itspolicies accordingly. The purpose of the analysis in this chapter is tosketch some of the key elements of a future policy program. It is recognizedthat the volatile domestic situation may make the type of policy shifts advo-cated difficult to implement. While this argues for patience, it does notnegate the importance of continuing to follow appropriate economic policies.A healthy economy in which output, employment and incomes are growing satis-factorily offers the best kind of environment for tackling the country'ssocial and political problems.

42. As discussed in the preceding chapter, there were major improvementsin a number of macro-economic indicators in Sri Lanka during 1984, partly as aresult of the rise in tea prices and partly because of government policies.The current economic outlook for 1985 suggests continued growth and a furtheraccumulation in international reserves. However, an examination of sectoralgrowth rates over the past few years and of the performance of export volumesreveals that a number of structural issues remain to be resolved if economicgrowth is to be sustained over the rest of this decade and into the 1990s.Past economic growth has been based primarily on paddy output growth and asizeable public investment program supported by large concessionary foreigncapital inflows. As rice self-sufficiency is now being reached, this sectoris likely to be a less important source of economic growth in the future,unless the Government vigorously pursues a policy of substituting rice forimported wheat. Moreover, public investment is unlikely to - and indeedshould not -- expand very rapidly, in part because concessionary aid inflowsare expected to level off. Yet, if Sri Lanka is to absorb the yearly additionto the active labor force and raise welfare levels, it is vital to maintaingrowth rates of the order of 5% per annum. Our analysis suggests that 5%output growth along with internal and external financial stabiLity isfeasible, provided that a number of major policy issues are addressed. Theprimary requisite is to design and implement policies which will generate newsources of growth, especially export growth. In support of the growth

-20-

objective, issues of investment strategy and domestic resource mobilizationwill also need to be tackled.

43. Attaining an acceptable rate of economic growth in Sri Lanka involvesdeveloping new areas of growth in agriculture, to offset the anticipatedslowdown in paddy growth, and in manufacturing, so as to lead to a gradualacceleration in industrial output. The diversification in both sectors willneed to focus on export markets. This means, in turn, providing appropriateincentives -- the exchange rate and trade taxes cum subsidy policy; providingsupport services including research and extension; developing infrastructure,especially roads and rehabilitating existing assets; and, pursuing institu-tional changes, especially in respect of public enterprise reform. It must beadded that the degree to which this strategy will be successful depends uponcontinued growth in, and unrestricted access to, world export markets.

44. To maintain financial stability, the Government will have to continueits recent efforts to reduce the level of public investment from the unsus-tainable levels attained in the past. This report considers that an invest-ment ratio of about 26% of GDP (Table 5) would be consistent with other macro-economic objectives. This is to be achieved by a reduction in public sectorcapital spending with an increased focus on the highest priority activities,combined with a gradual increase in the relative role of private investment,especially in export production. The reduced level of total investment willhave to be complemented by an increase in the national savings rate ofapproximately 4 percentage points of GDP, an increase which should be obtainedprimarily through higher public sector savings.

45. This brief report focusses on the first set of issues, viz., thosedealing with policies designed to sustain a high overall rate of economicgrowth (Section C below). The issues of investment strategy and domesticresource mobilization are not dealt with in much detail; instead, some keyparameters of these two subjects are presented within the framework of thebase scenario (Section B).l/ We now turn to this scenario, which outlines themajor macro-economic developments foreseen over the coming decade.

B. The Base Scenario

46. The objective of the development scenario outlined below is toillustrate the conditions under which a rate of economic growth of about 5%per year can be sustained in Sri Lanka in the coming years, maintaining, atthe same time, internal and external financial stability and an acceptabledebt service ratio. The realization of the scenario described in Table 5below rests on several important conditions. First, it is assumed that theGovernment continues to accumulate foreign exchange reserves, sterilizing some

proportion of these savings to reduce domestic inflationary pressure, andmaintaining the imports coverage of gross official reserves at 3 months.Second, these short-term stabilization measures must be supported by thepolicy reforms discussed in Section C below, designed to stimulate productionin areas where Sri Lanka can compete on world markets. Unless this secondstep is taken, the Government runs the risk of stabilizing the economy at alow rate of growth which would have serious consequences in terms of employ-ment and income earning opportunities. Third, to maintain financial stabilitythe overall investment coefficient will have to be reduced from an average of29.4% of GDP during 1980-84 to around 26.0% and the national savings rate willhave to increase from 16.4% of GDP during 1980-84 to approximately 20.0%.

47. The reduction in the investment coefficient and the increase in thenational savings rate will depend to a large extent on budgetary policies.Private investment is projected to increase as a share of GDP from 12.0% in1980-84 to close to 14.0% during 1985-89 in response to the growth policiesdiscussed below. Public investment will therefore have to be reduced frommore than 17.0% during 1980-84 to about 12.0% during 1985-89, a target whichthe Governmer- ttself has accepted. On the savings side, it is important tomaintain private savings at the level achieved in recent years; this meansfollowing a more flexible interest rate policy which offers a positive realrate of interest so as to attract private saving. Public savings, having beenmostly negative in the past, are expected to reverse this trend and averageabout 3% of GDP in the coming years through a combination of expenditure cutsand revenue raising measures.

48. The budgetary analysis in Chapter I reviewed the Government's progressthus far in achieving sustainable public investment and savings levels andsuggested further steps which need to be taken. One of the Government'sobjectives is to reduce the size and role of the public sector in the economy;its achievement depends on several factors. The Government's proposed reduc-tion in public sector capital spending to approximately 12% of GDP during1985-89 and measures designed to ensure greater budgetary discipline, such asthe removal of underexpenditure provisions in the capital budget, representsignificant steps in the right direction. On the other hand, reducing currentspending may be more difficult to achieve. There is a clear need to raisepublic sector salaries and the Government has begun to provide increasedallocations for much needed spending on O&M. In order to generate therequired level of savings on current account, revenues within the recurrentbudget will have to be reallocated away from low return uses. While severalcategories of current spending are fixed obligations and cannot be cut, thereremain within the Sri Lankan budget several items of expenditure in the areasof subsidies, transfers and advance account payments which can be cut withoutefficiency loss. There is a clear need to review the desirability of continu-ing to subsidize producer inputs, of providing transfers and advance accountpayments to inefficient public corporations which cannot be expected to payback, and there are many instances where increased reliance on user charges

-22-

must be pursued. Nevertheless, even if the Government is successful in con-trolling current spending, there will continue to be a need to raise morerevenues in order to reach the savings target.

49. For the medium term, a conservative estimate of total Governmentexpenditure over the period 1985-88 indicates a level of between 29% and 27%of GDP; this compares with 34.7% of GDP during 1980-84. Given the projectedinflow of concessionary foreign capital channeled through the budget of 5% ofGDP and domestic non-bank borrowing of about 3% of GDP in 1985-88, theGovernment's implicit revenue target is between 19% and 21% of GDP, as com-pared with 18.8% during 1980-84. If revenues are to be maintained at thislevel, the elasticity of the present taxation system needs to be improved andthe tax base needs to be widened. The increased coverage of taxes is espe-cially important if the Government is to continue to make further reforms inthe overall incentive structure which will necessarily imply a reduction intaxes on those activities which currently shoulder a disproportionately highpart of the tax burden. In addition, direct cost recovery mechanisms forservices provided by public bodies, e.g., transport or irrigation, should beimproved to further stimulate resource mobilization. The Government is awareof this problem. It has implemented a cost recovery program for the irriga-tion system and has requested technical assistance from the IMF for a reviewof the tax system.

50. The attainment of the base scenario also rests on some importantassumptions regarding external factors. The accumulation of reserves in 1984has established a base from which the immediate balance of payments outlook ishealthy under most scenarios. Even with the high export growth in the basescenario, however, Sri Lanka will continue to require substantial amounts offoreign assistance over the medium term. In the past the large resource gapsarising from successive budget deficits and slow export growth were financedby rapidly growing remittances and especially by the increased use of foreignconcessionary capital made available by donors. Remittances are unlikely tocontinue their past growth and concessionary capital has become much scarcer.In this base scenario, remittances are assumed to remain constant in realterms. Official grants are projected to decline even in current prices, whilecommitments of new concessionary loans remain constant in real terms at thecurrent level of about $300 million. There is, however, projected to be some

Page 39: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-24-

real increase in non-concessionary financing from official sources. Thus, onbalance, commitments from official sources, loans and grants, are projected toremain constant in real terms. In the coming years the Sri Lankan economywill be forced to adjust to much smaller resource gaps than in the past and torely partly on commercial borrowing to fill those gaps. Thus, the Governmentneeds not only to introduce policies designed to stimulate export growth andefficient import substitution but also to define and implement a borrowingstrategy which is consistent with resource requirements and sustainable interms of its debt servicing implications.

51. The most important features of the base scenario are summarized inTable 5. GDP can be expected to grow initially at about 5% per annum andaccelera-e to a more rapid rate during the 1990s. Real export growth wouldexceed import growth through both projection periods. However, in terms ofcurrent prices import growth will exceed export growth for the remainder ofthe 1980s because of the expected deteriorating terms of trade.

52. In terms of major sectoral growth rates, the agricultural sectorcannot be expected to continue to grow at the rate of the recent past.Nevertheless, the gradual rehabilitation of the tree crop sector together witha determined effort at agricultural diversification should lead to a fairlyhigh rate of expansion of 3.6% per year during 1984-89. The growth rate ofindustry, on the other hand, should accelerate to 4.8% per year during thenext five years based on several developments, including an increase inprocessing of traditional exports as opposed to stagnation in the past, con-tinued growth in garments exports, and a substantial acceleration in exportsof new manufactures. As discussed in detail in Chapter III, the outlook isfor a stable balance of payments situation with the debt service ratio risingfrom 14.2% in 1984 to 18.8% in 1987 but then gradually declining to 18.0% in1988 and 15.1% in 1994. The growth policies in the agricultural andindustrial sectors required to realize this development path are discussednext.

C. Policies for Growth

(1) Agricultural Policies

Introduction

53. About 75% of Sri Lazka's population resides in rural areas, with some45% of the total active labor force directly employed in agriculture. AsTable 7 shows, agriculture has declined as a percent of GDP in constant factorprices from 24.7% in 1977 to 21.3% in 1984. Agriculture continues, however,to make a significant contribution to both export earnings and Governmentrevenue. Exports of agricultural goods accounted for approximately 64% oftotal merchandise exports in 1984 with the three traditional exports - tea,rubber and coconut - accounting for 43%, 9% and 4% of exports respectively.This represents a decline from the early and mid-1970s when agriculturalexports accounted for over 90% of all merchandise export earnings. In

addition, direct export taxes on the same three traditional exports accountedfor 22% of total Government tax revenue in 1984. Nevertheless, the sector'scontribution to the economy could be raised. The country's natural resourcebase, climate and relatively low-wage and literate work force provide it withthe potential to be an efficient producer of a wide variety of agriculturalproduce.

54. This section analyzes the issues and prospects in the agriculturalsector. Initially a brief outline is provided of the performance of agricul-ture in aggregate and by major crops since 1977, followed by a discussion ofthe major internal policies which appear to have shaped past growth patterns.This is important because the link between Government policy and past perfor-mance provides invaluable lessons for the formulation of future policy.Subsequently recent Government initiatives are reviewed, and an assessment ismade of how far these measures go in creating the type of policy frameworkneeded to generate the rate of growth depicted in the base case scenario.

Recent Production Trends

55. Given the importance of agriculture, the marked improvement in growthperformance since the policy shift of 1977 is encouraging. Agriculture(excluding forestry and fishing) has grown at a real annual rate of close to4.0% during the period 1978-84, as compared with 1.8% per year between1970-77, largely because of a sustained increase in the production of paddy.The level of paddy production climbed to new highs in the early 1980s withsetbacks in 1982 and 1984 due to unfavorable weather. The reasons for thisimproved performance relate to the well documented producer response to theremoval of the myriad of Government controls on prices, distribution andmarketing that existed prior to 1977. This was supported by a research andextension system which concentrated its resources on the development anddissemination of modern rice technology. The result has been that Sri Lankais almost at the point of self-sufficiency in rice production, with _"aportsplaying the important role of providing competition to domestic producers andan alternative source of supply.

56. In contrast, the data in Table 6 show that, over time, the volume oftraditional export crops has essentially stagnated or declined. One explana-tion has been the steady worsening of international prices which, when coupledwith an appreciation of the real exchange rate, has squeezed domesticprofitability. Indeed, as Table 7 illustrates, prices in real terms havedeclined for tea, rubber, and rice with fluctuating movements in the case ofcoconuts. What is of interest, however, is that since 1970 the internationalprice of rice has declined substantially and yet this is the one crop whereproduction within Sri Lanka expanded rapidly. It is clear that domesticpolicies have played a major role in shaping the impact that movements ininternational prices have had on different crops.

57. As production data other than those on the four major crops discussedabove are not as comprehensive, it is difficult to interpret trends. However,available volume data on minor export crops indicate a slow rate of growthfrom a small base. Other domestic food crops, however, appear to have main-tained reasonable growth rates although marginally below the rate of growthachieved prior to 1977.

Major Policy Developments in Agriculture Since 1977

58. It has already been noted that the policy measures adopted by theGovernment since 1977 stimulated sustained growth in paddy production. Thereasons for the relatively poor performance of other agricultural subsectorsare several. First, the 1977 reforms significantly shifted relative incen-tives and institutional structures in favor of some agricultural activitiesand against others. The beneficial incentive effects that the unification anddevaluation of the exchange rate had on agriculture in 1977 were largelyoffset for traditional exports (tea, rubber and coconut) by the imposition ofhigh export taxes.1/ Thus, the producers of traditional export crops did notgain from the overall increase in the price of tradeables which followed the

1/ The share of tree crops taxation in total Government revenue jumpedfrom 12% in 1976 and 1BZ in 1977 to 42% in 1978 following anincrease in international prices in addition to the devaluation.

devaluation. In addition, the tree crop sector had been through a protractedprocess of nationalization in the early 1970s which placed approximately 60%of tea, 30% of rubber and 10% of coconut land under the control of two largestate corporations.l/ The uncertainty created during the nationalizationprocess coupled witE the following period of disorganization and mismanagementwithin the newly created public estates resulted in a slowdown in those cul-tivation activities that are essential in maintaining yields.

59. Second, since 1978-79 there has been a shift in relative incentivesaway from traded goods in general and in particular against agriculture. Thelarge capital inflows associated with the jump in public investment, espe-cially Mahaweli, increased the demand for non-traded goods causing domesticinflation to rise above international inflation, resulting in an appreciationof the real exchange rate.2/ In addition, continued budget deficits added tothe inflationary pressure causing the effective exchange rate to appreciatefurther. As an appreciation of the exchange rate moves incentives in favor ofnon-traded activities, agriculture along with other traded goods became rela-tively less profitable. At the same time, the import tariffs that were usedto partially offset the appreciation of the exchange rate generally offeredhigher protection to domestic manufactured goods.3/ Covernment policy tomaintain low prices for essential foods other than rice translated into lowtariff protection on agricultural products which, coupled with the exchangerate policy, disadvantaged domestic farmers.

60. Third, while traditional export crops were a major source of taxrevenue, public expenditures were largely directed towards assisting othercrops, especially paddy. As Mahaweli became dominant in the public investmentprogram, an unusually large share of public resources was devoted to paddy andto raising hydroelectric capacity.4/ This investment pattern not onlyincreased the resources which were directly employed in paddy production butit also resulted in other important investments, which would have supportedmore diversified growth, being starved of resources. In the attempt to con-trol budget deficits, other public expenditures such as the rehabilitation andmaintenance of existing smaller-scale irrigation networks, rural roads and theoperational expenses of research and extension departments were reduced.

one example, the effectiveness of extension workers has been constrainedconsiderably because of insufficient funds for fuel and travel allowances.The paddy bias of capital expenditures was further reinforced by subsidypolicies. The most significant current expenditure earmarked directly foragriculture has been the fertilizer subsidy, with over 60% of the fertilizerissues used by paddy producers.1/

61. These tax, subsidy and expenditure interventions in favor of paddywere reinforced by the focus of the research and extension service. R and Einstitutions and associated manpower skills developed within Sri Lanka havebeen traditionally centered on the four major crops. In the context of afavorable shift in incentives in favor of paddy, research support was avail-able to assist paddy farmers; as no such incentive shift occurred for thethree traditional export crops, there was little demand for research andextension services. Other crops, on the other hand, continued to face thedual obstacles of lower incentives relative to paddy production and negligibleresearch/extension support. Thus even if diversification away from paddywould have been profitable there was little development of necessary supportservices.

62. In addition to the above, there are wide variations in theadministrative/institutional structures surrounding each crop. Last year'sCEM 2/ and the recent World Bank Tree Crop Sector Report provide illustrationsof complex administrative structures constraining performance. Due to thedistribution of responsibilities for one crop or subsector across a number ofdifferent ministries, consistent policy formulation, coordinated planning andimplementation are rendered more difficult than necessary. Once again paddyis to some extent an exception in that the direct intervention via publicbodies has been significantly reduced since 1977. Other crops, however, andin particular tree crops, have had to operate in an environment where a numberof the major input decisions are shaped by several public institutions. Evenso, there are areas where the absence of a consistent set of policies and anadequate capacity for planning and implementation have hindered the perfor-mance of all crops, including paddy, e.g., water management and research.

Future Prospects and Recent Government Initiatives

(a) Prospects and Issues

63. In the base scenario discussed previously the agricultural sector isexpected to grow at a slightly lower level than in the recent past, whenimport substitution in rice was the major driving force. Nevertheless, the

projected growth rate of 3.6% during 1985-89 rising to 3.8% in the 1990s ishigh when compared to other countries and would represent a significantachievement in terms of raising rural income levels and increasing employmentopportunities. Aside from the continued, but slower expansion of paddy,future agricultural growth is dependent on the rehabilitation of Sri Lanka'straditional tree crops and a much higher rate of growth in "other" domesticfood and minor export crops. The development of an incentive framework whichencourages farmers to make the most efficient use of land resources would leadto greater diversification and is vital for future growth. Tree crops can beexpected to gradually attain a growth rate of 3% per annum given the invest-ment programs now being implemented and the associated policy/managementreforms. The remainder of agriculture should grow at around 3.8%, with non-traditional agricultural exports accelerating to a 7% per annum growth rate,in response to completed and planned investments and the policy reforms dis-cussed below.

64. The policy agenda needed to attain this growth can be divided intotwo parts. First, for those assets directly owned by the Government,primarily the tree crop plantations, a direct program of action is requiredto rehabilitate the productive stock and institute worker/managerial incen-tives in an environment of financial discipline and accountability. Asdescribed in the following section, the Government has made a significantstart in addressing this set of issues. Second, since by far the largest partof agricultural production is in the private sector a much broader program ofpolicy reform is required to tackle the constraints to growth outlined above.The major policy issues to be addressed in such a program are: the reductionof policy-induced distortions in the inter and intra-sectoral incentiveframework (exchange rate policy, tariff reform, tax/subsidy policies); theredirection of public capital expenditure towards supporting more diversifiedgrowth (public investment in infrastructure, rehabilitation of existing capi-tal assets); a more effective research and extension service covering a widervariety of crops; the rationalization and improved coordination of publicinstitutions/ministries (e.g., water management agencies), and a thoroughoverhaul of the rural credit system.l/ Some progress has been made inaddressing these broad, but nonetheless crucial, policy issues. We now turnto consider recent Government initiatives and areas where policy change shouldbe pursued further.

(b) Recent Government Initiatives

The National Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Strategy

65. In response to the obstacles facing diversified agriculture as high-lighted above, the Government initiated a thorough sector-wide review of theconstraints to agricultural development and suggested remedial policies. Theresulting "National Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Strategy - A Change inPerspective" (NAFNS),l is a major breakthrough. The analysis highlights theproblems touched on before as well as many others, and outlines theGovernment's first attempt to spell out an overall corrective strategy. TheNAFNS document is the collaborative effort between the National PlanningDivision of the Ministry of Finance and Planning and several Governmentinstitutions responsible for agriculture. It has been an important learningexperience for those involved and clearly illustrates the need for coordinatedplanning in those sectors where a number of government departments operate,often independently of one another.

66. Many of the recommendations put forward in the NAFNS report are soundand should be implemented. The report is particularly strong in identifyingthe type of reforms needed in the research, extension and water managementservice systems to support more diversified agricultural growth. For example,with respect to field crops other than paddy, the report notes that Governmentservices have been centered around supporting rice production and recommendsthat "a multifaceted program consisting of technological development, betterextension outreach and marketing facilities" be developed. These generalideas are backed up with specific reforms for particular support services.Thus, to address the lack of coordination and communication within the variousresearch institutions the report recommends that a Council for AgriculturalResearch Policy be established "to advise Government on research prioritiesand the promotion of inter-institutional research projects". However,research is of most value when it is applied and at the moment, as the reportnotes, "the extension services are over-burdened in distributing andadministering development subsidies at the expense of extension outreach." Itis recommended that the administration of subsidies be separated from exten-sion services. This would not only free extension officers' time but wouldalso sever the link between technical advice on good farming practices and theinspection of property by officials to determine access to Governmentsubsidies. Indeed, as the report notes the whole rationale for subsidiesshould be reviewed if output price incentives are raised.

67. The report also clearly identifies the issues involved in irrigationinvestment and water management. It is argued that the fut- re strategy forirrigation investment should center on a shift in priorities away from the

construction of new irrigation schemes towards the rehabilitation of existingschemes. This should be coupled with a greater emphasis on water managementand recovery of operation/maintenance costs through fees. As the reportstates, "...Presently, there is minimal planning on watershed management,although large investments have been devoted to major watersheds to protectthese investments and ensure rational utilization of land and water resources,there has to be coordinated watershed management."

68. The report is less clear, however, when discussing reforms relatedto the incentive structure. The policy advice given in different parts ofthe r!port is often conflicting probably to some extent because this is afirsc attempt at working towards a consensus on what the overall policyframework for agriculture should be. For example, while the report makes ageneral argument in favor of allowing international prices to determineresource allocation, there are also a large number of proposals for selectiveassistance to particular crops in particular regions, via special lines ofcredit, price supports, subsidies, etc. This approach suggests the adoptionof selective promotion policies similar to those used in the past with mixedresults. While targeted assistance to particular activities may be warrantedin the short run, it is important to avoid levels of support which will leadto the misallocation of resources over the medium term, lowering productivityand growth.

69. An alternative approach would be to step back from measures designedto promote specific crops and focus policy change on correcting the moreimportant inter and intra-sectoral distortions identified in the previousdiscussion. Given the limited capacity of Government to make such complexdecisions as which crops to grow, when, where and how much, it would seem moreappropriate to concentrate public resources on such areas as establishing awidely based and responsive research, extension and support framework.Broader policy reform should be designed to reduce both the economy-widepolicy-induced distortions which disadvantage the production of traded goods,in particular agriculture, and the relative distortions between crops withinagriculture. The sustained success in paddy (as well as the 16% increase intea output in 1984) demonstrates that farmers do react quickly to marketincentives if the necessary support framework is in place.

70. Aside from the NAFNS document, which remains a statement ofobjectives, the Government has already implemented a number of desirablepolicy reforms. It is worthwhile analyzing these initiatives in detailbecause they provide both a concrete example of what the Government has doneas well as a general illustration of the outstanding issues which remain to beaddressed to stimulate more rapid growth throughout the agricultural sector.

Tree Crop Subsector

71. There have been three major reforms designed to revitalize the treecrops - the Medium-Term Investment Program (MTIP), Tax/Subsidy reform, andthe proposed Stabilization Funds. The MTIP represents the culmination of the

Page 48: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-33-

first attempt by the two state-owned tree crops corporations (JEDB and SPC)to identify a coordinated investment strategy beyond their annual budgets.At the instigation of the Government and IDA, the MTIP was formulated bygrouping the five-year investment proposals of the 530 estates into regionalplans, amalgamating them into .corporate plans, and combining them further asa single investment program for the plantation segment of the tree cropssubsector. The objective is to increase the production of tea, rubber andcoconuts by improving the productivity of all publicly held estates,rehabilitating factories, providing field and nursery equipment, improvingtransportation and strengthening the management and financial control of thecorporations. The MTIP represents a significant step by Government to redresspast policies which basically extracted profits from tree crops withoutproviding the resources/incentives for operators to maintain output or produc-tivity in the medium term.

72. As the MTIP is restricted to the two public corporations, theGovernment also implemented changes in the tree crop taxation and subsidyrates designed to improve producer incentives to all producers, includingprivate estates and smallholders. With regard to tea, the fixed export taxwas reduced by Rs 2 to Rs 7 per kg. The threshold net auction price for thead valorem tax was raised from Rs 28 to Rs 32 per kg with the new tax rate setat a uniform rate of 50%, subject to the provision that the net auction price(after tax) is not reduced below Rs 38 per kg.1/ While the increase in thethreshold price at which tax becomes payable partly reflects an appropriateadjustment for inflation, the reduced fixed tax and the exemption from advalorem tax up to Rs 38 per kg should result in a real increase in producermargins. The existing export duty on rubber was reduced by about Rs 2.25 perkg with the introduction of a new sliding scale of duty. And for coconuts thetax threshold increased from Rs 13,100 to Rs 20,000 per metric ton of coconutoil with a 50% tax on the excess. In addition, no more permits will be issuedas of January 1, 1985, for subsidies to the two state corporations (JEDB andSPC), to encourage them to replant, infill and upgrade processing machinery.These type of subsidies represented a second-best method for offsetting thehigh incidence of taxation and an overvalued exchange rate which reducedmargins making output or quality improving investments unprofitable. As aresult of the marked increase in the tea price during 1983/84 plus the finan-cial resources that will be provided via the MTIP, the Government no longerconsidered it necessary to subsidize inputs. The private sector, however,will continue to receive these subsidies partly because the MTIP is restrictedto public corporations, and partly because it is still considered necessary,

1/ This replaced the previous tax rate of 50% between Rs 28 and Rs 55 perkg and 40% thereafter.

despite higher tea prices, to offset the negative effects of imperfect creditmarkets and the high incidence of taxation.1/

73. While the overall reduction in the tax burden plus the removal ofsubsidies for state corporations are welcome initiatives which bring bothinput and output prices more into line with international prices, a furtherrationalization of the tax structure may be appropriate. There has in thepast been a tendency to view the tax on tree crops as a steady and reliablesource of Government revenue, at least in the sh3rt run, without due regard toproducer incentives and the longer-run impact on the sector and the economy,including Government revenues. While the following paragraphs are confined toa discussion of explicit taxes, exchange rate policy clearly has equallyimportant implications for producer incentives and Government revenues.

74. It is useful to distinguish two dimensions to producer decision-making.2/ First, there are activities that, by improving the quali'y ofproduct, increase the price received. In the case of tea, there are manyactivities in tea processing aimed at improving the sale price at the auction.Since the ad valorem tax is geared to this auction price, the marginal taxrate on price is relevant. If the quality of a kilo of tea could be improvedat a cost of one rupee to get an improvement in the producer price by tworupees (before tax), it would obviously be profitable to do so. Yet, if themarginal tax is equal to or about 50%, as is the case in Sri Lanka, theactivity will not be profitable, regardless of the relationship between thecost of the production and the initial price. Second, there are a range ofactivities which increase output. At a given price, the tax rate is fixed andthe marginal tax on incremental output equals the average tax rate. Forexample, at an f.o.b. price of around Rs 65 per kg the average tax incidencecreated by the current system in Sri Lanka is approximately 29%. Any outputincreasing investment with a benefit to cost ratio of 1.3 in a zero tax situa-tion would have a 0.92 benefit to cost ratio under the present system. Aprofitable activity becomes unprofitable.

75. The issue which remains to be reviewed is the balance between treecrop taxes as a primary source of revenues and the incentives provided toproducers of crops in which Sri Lanka has a comparative advantage. Quiteclearly, this must be decided upon as part of an overall review and revisionof the taxation system and its adequacy to generate sufficient revenues. Withregard to tea in particular, however, Sri Lanka's tax structure does appear tohave a continued bias against producers. The 50% marginal tax rate in the Sri

2/ In order to clearly illustrate the economic repercussions of the taxsystem, the examples here assume that other factors remain constant, suchas the possibility of an impact on world prices.

Lankan case applies at any net auction price over $1.23 per kg.1/ Currentprice projections indicate that this price is below any average "normal trend"price.

76. An alternative tax system could be based around a progressive struc-ture of tax rates with lower levels of taxation when prices are at "normal"levels. This has the advantage of moderating price effects during periods ofabnormally high prices without imposing a tax burden which severely erodesincentives. This type of tax system is illustrated in Table 8 which comparesboth the marginal and average tax rates in Sri Lanka with that of Kenya, oneof Sri Lanka's main competitors. It is interesting to note that over theperiod 1970-79 Kenyan exports grew at an annual rate of 11.9%, in contrast tostagnation in Sri Lanka. Although other factors are probably of more impor-tance in explaining the performance difference, the tax structure in the Kenyacase did allow price incentives to operate more freely than is the case forSri Lanka.2/

77. An additional major initiative in the 1985 budget was the Government'sdeclared intention to establish stabilization funds for tea and rubber. Thiswould entail syphoning off part of the tax revenue collected when prices areabove a "trend level" into a.fund which is not part of current revenue. Thefunds are thereby sterilized to reduce the itflationary impact that a rapidrise in export prices can have an the economy, and would only re-enter theeconomy when prices hit abnormally low levels via price support to producers.Thus, stabilization funds represent a countercyclical measure designed toreduce macro-economic fluctuations for an economy dependent on primary com-modities with wide price fluctuations. While the countercyclical objective isdesirable, the policy also needs to be implemented with due regard to producerincentives.

78. Although the details of how the stabilization funds will work in SriLanka have not been finalized, the intention is (a) to make payments into thefunds only in times of above normal trend prices, and (b) to establish such afund by making withdrawa-s from revenues already generated by the existing taxsystem, i.e., there will be no incremental tax effect on prices received byproducers. It should be noted, however, that whether there will be a stabi-lization effect depends upon whether the Government reduces its own expendi-ture by the amount of the revenue loss due to payments into the stabilizationfund or manages to raise revenues from alternative sources.

79. A method by which to attain both the stabilization and tax/incentiveobjectives would be to move to a progressive marginal tax structure. Lowerlevels of taxation when prices are in the normal range could be combined withprogressively higher marginal tax rates at above normal trend level priceswith a commitment to pay some proportion of the revenue collected at thehigher tax rates into a sterilized stabilization fund. Subject to the above-mentioned review of the overall tax system, this would satisfy the macromanagement objectives without sacrificing the output, employment and incomegains that derive from having resources employed in areas of comparativeadvantage. The Government has asked the IMF for some background technicalpapers and has established a special working group to investigate the issuesinvolved in operating a stabilization fund.

Livestock Industy

80. The Government has also instituted several policy measures which laythe foundation for an efficient livestock industry. With respect to dairy,the past expansion of milk production has been limited due to Governmentintervention in the marketing, distribution and in particular, the pricing ofmilk products. Past policy objectives resulted in the incentives necessary toencourage domestic production being given secondary importance to the objec-tive of providing milk to consumers at low and subsidized prices. A WorldBank dairy report indicated that, subject to the adjustment of incentives, and

Page 52: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-37-

the introduction-of certain key institutional changes, domestic dairy produc-tion is an efficient import substitution activity with potentially significantemployment/income effects for the rural poor.

81. In response, the Government has allowed both the producer and consumerprices of milk to rise, thereby reducing the budgetary subsidy to both theNational Milk Board (NMB), the main processor of domestic milk, and theCooperative Wholesale Establishment, the agency responsible for most milkimports. The Government has also decided to move towards abolishing the NMBand replacing it with an institutional structure which will be privatelyowned, primarily by dairy farmers. A complete restructuring and modernizationof the dairy industry is intended which involves the construction of newprocessing plants and chilling centers and te encouragement of private sectorownership. In addition, the efficiency of domestic production and the levelof prices to consumers will be held in check by allowing the importation ofdairy products at a nominal tariff rate of 25% or less. Given the currentovervaluation of the exchange rate and the level of other import tariffs, thisis an acceptable tariff rate.

82. While these steps will greatly enhance the productivity and growthof dairy products, a similar expansion in meat production requires furtheraction. Retail price controls, the absence of suitable slaughter and marketfacilities and a ban on the slaughter of buffaloes and female cattle reducethe incentives for producers to slaughter excess stock. A removal of theserestrictions is required not only to increase the production and quality ofdomestic meat products in the short run, but also to ensure that the geneticimprovement programs are effective in raising the quality of herds over themedium term. These measures would also have to be supported by a more effec-tive disease control and veterinary services network.

Conclusion

83. In sum, the Government has initiated several significant reformsdesigned to revitalize parts of the agriculture sector. The measures under-taken with respect to tree crops will lead to a revitalization of traditionalexports, particularly from state-owned plantations. More needs to be done forprivate tree crop smallholders; some of the tax/incentive measures that shouldbe considered have been indicated. The livestock subsector will receive aconsiderable boost from dairy if the current program of reform continues to beimplemented. This should be supported by removing the constraints confrontingmeat producers. In addition, the NAFNS report lays out a framework for impor-tant reforms in the support service network which will greatly assist increating the conditions for broader based agricultural growth.

84. Looking ahead, if these initiatives are to yield maximum benefits,they need to oe set within an overall strategy designed to encourage the mostefficient use of land resources. The investment in Mahaweli is beginning toopen up new areas of irrigated land and the country is, therefore, well placedto diversify into other crops without sacrificing the Government's prime

-38-

objective of rice self-sufficiency. The challenge will be to create a policyframework which encourages farmers to increase yields from existing crops andto move land out of paddy in some areas into alternative crops. The latterdevelopment is more likely to occur where the return to producing alternativecrops is high and the domestic policy biases in favor of paddy are reduced.This will take time because farmers often perceive paddy as an "insurance"crop, i.e., it does not have to be traded to provide nutrition, farmers arefamiliar with optimal cultivation practices, and Government policy is designedto support paddy. However, if farmers' incomes are to continue to increase,it is important that the appropriate incentives are put in place to encouragethem to diversify towards crops which yield a higher rate of return at worldprices. The alternative will be continued expansion of rice output atincreasing costs of production which, in the absence of exportcompetitiveness, can only be supported by increased resort to domestic pricesupports and public subsidies.

85. A program of reforms is required, designed to reduce the risk andraise the relative ttturn to the farmer of moving land into its mostprofitable use. Such a program will include incentive, support service andinstitutional components. The first step should be to restore producer incen-tives by allowing international prices to have a greater influence on therelative returns to different crops with due regard to stabilizationobjectives. This would entail restructuring taxation and subsidy policiesaround a more neutral framework, which includes cost recovery on publiclyprovided inputs such as irrigation water or fertilizer. This would alsonecessarily imply broadrning the tax base in agriculture in order to equalizethe tax effects on different crops. Second, there is a need to renew effortsto channel more resources into the necessary support framework. Improvedresearch and extension services for a wider variety of crops and therehabilitation and maintenance of the infrastructure in rural areas appear tobe high priorities. In addition, whenever the opportunity arises, institu-tional reform should be pressed forward, bot"h to reduce direct Governmentinvolvement in production, marketing or distribution and to consolidate andrationalize the remaining administrative structure.

(2) Industrial and Trade Policies

Introduction - The Emerging Constraints to Growth

86. When the 1977 liberalization reform package was implemented it wasenvisaged that the industrial sector, in particular manufactured exports,would provide a major source of future economic growth and employment.Initially, the various manifacturing subsectors did indeed respond positivelywith both factory industry and small industry registering particularly. highgrowth rates (7.5% and 11.5% respectively for 1977-79). CapaLity utilizationincreased due to the removal of import restrictions, the incentive to enterthe production of traded goods relative to non-traded activities strengtheneddue to the unification and devaluation of the exchange rate, and the general

Page 54: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-39-

investment climate improved in response to the overall policy shift towards amore open market-oriented economy.

87. However, because of the absence of further Government measuresdesigned to build upon the 1977 reforms and negative external developments,this renewed growth was, with the exception of garments, short-lived. Aspointed out in the section dealing with agriculture, the subsequent apprecia-tion of the real exchange rate after 1978 disadvantaged the producers oftraded goods, including domestic manufactures. Although import tariffs wereused to provide higher protection for manufacturing vis-a-vis other sectors,the growth opportunities created by this inward-looking policy were Limiteddue to the small size of the domestic market. Moreover, the tariff structurew&s designed to protect those domestic industries in operation at the time ofthe major tariff reform in 1977 -- new industries which may have developedin a less distorted policy environment were, by definition, excluded. Indeed,to the extent that any new industry utilized the outputs of existing highlyprotected domestic producers the profitability of entering new activities wasfurther reduced. Furthermore, the rapid increase in public investment raisedthe relative return of construction vis-a-vis other sectors. As certainfactors of production are mobile between sectors, the increased demand forconstruction work attracted domestic resources away from manufacturing. Thedampening effect that these changes in relative incentives had on manufactur-ing growth were compounded by a number of non-policy related constraints suchas a poor and subsequently neglected physical infrastructure which raiseddomestic manufacturing costs, an indigenous financial sector which was justbeginning to develop, and certain exogenous factors such as the general worldrecession following the second oil price shock and a steady depreciation inSri Lanka's terms of trade. As a result, over the period 1977-84, manufactur-ing declined as a proportion of GDP in constant 1970 factor prices from 14.7%to 13.8% and manufactured exports (excluding petroleum re-exports andgarments) increased in current prices from $13 million to only $69 million.1/

88. Within the manufacturing sector the performance of the publicly ownedmanufacturing enterprises (PEs) has been particularly poor. Although thenumber of PEs has not expanded since 1977, they still contribute approximately40% of the manufacturing value added. Manufacturing PEs have found it dif-ficult to compete in a more open economy, at the same time as the Governmenthas been reluctant to press forward with the necessary rationalizationprocess. The end result has been one of PEs growing slowly within a policyenvironment which provides them with enough protection to avoid closure but

not enough resources, autonomy or competition co stimulate structuralchange. 1/

Prospects and Issues

89. As discussed earlier, a sustainable medium-term scenario is dependentupon a significant increase in the rate of growth of manufactured exports andefficient import substitution activities. The annual real growth rate inmanufacturing is projected to increase from the 3.5% rate achieved in therecent past to 4.8% over the period 1984-89 and then to a gradually higherlevel in the next decade.2/ A much improved rate of growth is expected fromthe processing industries linked to tree crops; they constitute about onequarter of value added in industry and should grow at 2 to 3% per annum, asopposed to stagnation in the past. Exports of manufactures, which make upsome 15% of value added, should increase at 10% per annum: this applies toboth garments, which are currently the bulk of manufactured exports and, inview of past performance, are expected to continue to expand, and to exportsof other manufactures which, starting from a small base, should grow rapidlyif given adequate incentives. The remainder of industrial production gearedto the domestic market makes up about 60% of value added and comprises theoutput of public manufacturing enterprises as well as private production ofmostly simple manufactures. It should expand at 4.5 to 5.0% per annum, orclose to the rate of growth of GDP, given the fairly high marginal propensityto consume industrial products as real incomes increase, and assuming, ofcourse, an appropriate incentives and especially exchange rate policy accom-panied by a gradual rationalization of public manufacturing enterprises.

90. The policy agenda needed to achieve thi3 growth is as follows. On themacro side, a more responsive exchange rate policy is essential, as is acontinued reform of trade taxes. This needs to be supported by a furtherreduction in the budget deficit to restrain inflationary pressure and lowerinterest rates. At the sectoral level a broad program of measures is requiredto stimulate manufacturing without preference for particular activities. Sucha program would include allocating a larger share of public resources forimproving the basic infrastructure, undertaking administrative reforms aimedat reducing the bureaucratic impedimants that confront potential investors,and implementing measures designed to rationalize, and raise the productivityof, manufacturing PEs. If manufactured exports are to expand, policies haveto be adopted which will enable the private sector to compete againstproducers in other countries. The manufacturing exports market is extremely

1/ This is discussed in a draft World Bank report entitled, "SelectiveIssues in Industrial and Trade Policies".

2/ The Government's own projections support this view although theyanticipate much higher rates of growth for manufacturing as a whole --

in particular manufactured exports.

-41-

competitive and relatively small bureaucractic obstacles or unnecessary addi-tional costs can have a significant effect on export competitiveness.Although most of the growth is expected to originate in the private sector,the Government's role is to reformulate policy towards providing a consistentand outward-oriented set of policies which assist the traded goods sector,particularly exports. The Government is well aware that a more dynamicmanufacturing sector needs to be developed and has recently undertaken severalreforms which show its determination to confront difficult policy issues.

Recent Government Initiatives and Upcoming Policy Issues

91. The following discussion is focused on recent Government initiativesin the industrial policy area, including: the formation of an industrialpolicy committee, tariff reform, rationalization of PEs and export promotionmeasures. It also suggests the next steps to be taken in these areas, ifindustrial growth is to accelerate.

(a) Industrial Policy Committee

92. The absence of an overall industrial strategy has been a major factorunderlying the poor performance of the manufacturing sector. As a result,the policy framework for manufacturing has been shaped by a number of groupswith different interests and views. This has Led to the adoption of a largenumber of selective policies which in aggregate often conflict with oneanother drawing resources into inefficient activities, giving confusing sig-nals to potential investors, and generally slowing expansion. While such asituation is certainly not peculiar to Sri Lanka, the malaise of industry andtrade policy has drawn particular attention because of the strong commitmentand clarity of purpose demonstrated by the Government in undertaking the 1977reforms.

93. In response, the Cabinet has recently approved the formation of anIndustrial Policy Committee (IPC) which has representatives from the threeministries directly involved in industry,1/ the Export Development Board andthe Business Development Council. The Secretary of Finance and Planning ischairman, and the Director of Planning in the same ministry is a member withthe responsibility for coordinating the committee's findings. The objectiveis to repeat the successful outcome of an experiment in the agriculturalsector, where a similar body was able to produce a consensus document outlin-ing the first steps of an overall strategy for agricultural policy and

-42-

projects.l/ The task facing the IPC is a difficult and complex one. Thedevelopment of a consensus strategy will necessarily involve some painfulchoices in terms of rationalizing and restructuring the industrial sector.

(b) Tariff Reform

94. The recommendations made by the Presidential Tariff Commission (PTC)to Cabinet to undertake a fairly major reform of the import tariff structurewere accepted, with the new tariff schedule being implemented via the 1985budget. The objective of the tariff reform was to reduce the variance ineffective protection coefficients (EPCs) to a narrower range, which, accordingto PTC calculations, would be achieved by establishing a nominal tariff struc-ture with a range of 5% to 75%. In this first phase of reducing both therange of EPCs and the overall level of protection, the PTC recommended raisingtariffs on those products where protection was low and reducing those tariffswhere protection was inordinately high. As the PTC stated, "this is on thebasis that there is no rationale in protecting one product at a very highlevel and not give a comparable level of protection to another product inorder to ensure a more efficient allocation of resources". The new tariffschedule largely achieves the objective set for this phase of tariff reform.

95. The PTC's approach to reforming the tariff structure appears to bevery thorough and the implementation of their recommendations by Government isa significant positive step in moving towards a more neutral trade regime.The Government showed considerable resolve in pushing forward with this reformdespite much internal opposition. Furthermore, there is active discussion onconverting the PTC into a permanent body so as to retain the institutionalcapability of undertaking the next phase of tariff reform designed to furtherreduce trade tax-related distortions.

96. Nevertheless, this is a first step and there are a number of anomalieswhich should be highlighted and discussed. First, a general reduction in theoverall tariff level should have been accompanied by an exchange ratedepreciation, if we assume that the currency was not undervalued before thereform.2/ A reduction in import taxes effectively results in an appreciationof the real exchange rate confronting importers, thus reducing the costs ofimported products on the local market. An adjustment of the exchange ratecompensates for this effect, at the same time as providing a boost to allexporters and import-substitution producers. To the extent that the Business

1/ See "National Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Strategy - A Change inPerspective", National Planning Division, Ministry of Finance andPlanning, June 1984. This is reviewed under the section dealingwith agriculture.

2/ As is argued later, the data suggest that the exchange rate isovervalued.

Page 58: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-43-

Turnover Tax (BTT) changes discussed below marginally offset the tariffreform, then the necessity for an exchange rate adjustment is reduced. It isrecommended that any further reform of the tariff structure which attempts toreduce the overall level of protection should simultaneously involve anestimation of the required exchange rate adjustment.

97. Second, some 35 products were omitted from PTC's listed recommenda-tions foLlowing objections by representatives from the Ministry of Industriesand Scientific Affairs. As these omissions leave the level of protectionprovided to certain PEs at disproportio.ately high levels, the economiceffects of continuing to leave these products outside the general tariffreform need to be reconsidered.

98. Third, the reduction in the tariff on imported machinery from 7-1/2%to 5% or 0% in the case of producers that export more than 50% of theiroutput, departs from the methodology of moving towards an equalization oftariffs. The rationale is to assist private investors especially thoseengaged in export activities. However, this does create a bias in favor ofcapital as opposed to labor using production techniques and may represent apoor second best measure to offset the disincentive effects of an overvaluedexchange rate.

99. Fourth, the basis for valuing imports for the levy of BTT was changedby adding a hypothetical 10% profit margin, thereby increasing BTT paymentson imports. The rationale is that as local producers already pay BTT on aprice that includes their profit margin, importers should be placed on thesame footing. In this sense it equalizes the tax incidence between importsand locally produced goods. Nevertheless, the imposition of this additionaltax on imports does reduce the extent to which the recent tariff reform suc-ceeded in lowering the overall level of protection. It should also be notedthat the effect this tax has on relative rates of effective protection betweengoods will vary due to differences in domestic value added. How importantthis effect is can only be determined empirically; however, given that thehypothetical margin is 10%, it is probably not very significant.

100. To conclude, in addition to addressing these anomalies it isanticipated that the PTC will press ahead with the next phase of tariffreform. This will involve a further reduction in both the overall level andvariance of effective protection.

(c) Public Manufacturing Enterprises

101. The Government continues to be concerned about the poor performanceof PEs for two basic reasons. Firstly, as pointed out earlier, many PEs drawreal resources into low return activities and utilize those resources ineffi-ciently which acts as a brake on the performance of the manufacturing sectorin aggregate; and secondly, PEs as a whole continue to make significantdemands on budgetary resources. As Table 9 demonstrates, budgetary transfersto manufacturing PEs have increased since 1981, with most of the expansion

Page 59: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

taking place in current transfers and advance account payments and not capitaltransfers designed to restructure PEs and raise productivity. By way ofillustrating the type of trade-offs involved, it is notable that the non-capital transfers in 1984 to manufacturing PEs slightly exceeded the totalcost of the food stamp program in the same year. Even if one ignores theefficiency arguments one could question the welfare gains of continuallysubsidizing those employed in particular manufacturing plants as opposed tousing those resources to increase the value of the food stamps offered to thepoorest segment of Sri Lanka's population.

102. In response to this situation the Government is undertaking a numberof initiatives. For example, the Ministry of Finance has begun to put con-siderable pressure on those line ministries that have responsibilities formanufacturing PEs to complete the valuation of PE assets, a request that hasbeen ongoing for two years. The reluctance of PEs and line ministries tocomplete this task is believed to stem from the view that such a valuation isthe first step in a process of privatization. The Government, however, hasoffered assurances that this is not necessarily the planned outcome. Whateverthe future of PEs, it is argued that a valuation of assets is an essentialfirst step in undertaking a reform of their financial structure.

103. The Government is also preparing a paper which should suggest somefurther reforms for manufacturing PEs. One component is a proposal to solvethe legalistic uncertainty that Government Owned Business Undertakings (GOBUs)currently operate in by making them either private companies or fully-fledgedPEs. GOBUs were private companies that were taken over by the State under the1971 Business Undertakings (Acquisition) Act, because either they were indanger of liquidation or they followed what were perceived to be unfair trad-

Page 60: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

-45-

ing practices. Since that time GOBUs have operated in a legal enviro..aentwhich approximated a sort of middle ground between the private sector and PEs.Subject to private sector interest, it would be preferable to allow GOBUs toreturn to their former private sector status.

104. Lastly, the Government is actively discussing the option ofprivatization, particularly in the case of telecommunications. Although thereis considerable opposition to privatization, the Government feels that thismay provide the only mechanism through which modern technology, increasedproductivity, and better consumer service can be achieved.

105. While these recent initiatives are encouraging, a more wide-rangingset of reforms is required. A World Bank draft industry report of November1984 outlined a possible approach to the process of rationalizing manufactur-ing PEs, and the 1984 CEN provided a summary of these recommendations. Thereform of PEs is a complex area where protectionist feelings run deep partlybecause of the desire to maintain employment and partly because of the beliefthat "industrialization" must be initiated by the public sector due to theimmaturity of the private secto-. Hiwever, Lhe employment and training objec-tives could be attained at a much lower cost without the significant distor-tions created by PEs, whereas the latter argument lacks credibility when oneobserves how the private sector reacted in Sri Lanka when strong positiveincentives were offered.

106. The creation of more jobs and a higher level of productivity willrequire a more outward-oriented industrial strategy which will in turn neces-sitate that manufacturing PEs are able to compete. Restructuring the many PEswill inevitably take time and will involve some painful short-run choices asthe economy adjusts. While political and social realities may dictate thepace of reform, this must be moderated by an equal concern for the negativeeffects on medium-term growth if policies are not changed.

107. One approach would be to initiate a firm-by-firm objective assessmentof the ability of manufacturing PEs to compete in a more open economy. Thestudies could start with those firms at either end of the efficiency spectrumwith the intention to close down those plants unable now or in the future tocover variable costs and to privatize those that are competitive and are ableto attract private capital. Such a series of firm level studies should beaccompanied by a general reduction in both tariff protection and budget sub-sidies provided to PEs. However, for many PEs a transition period will berequired to bring them to the point where private investors will find themattractive. PEs have operated under an enormous burden of ad hoc policymeasures, the effects of which will take time to dissipate. This type ofrationalization will require a commitment to undertake a time-phased plan ofaction for each PE, that clearly outlines the investment, institutional, andincentive measures that are required to raise productivity.

(d) Export Policy

108. Sri Lanka has a range of policy measures designed to assist exporters,particularly those involved in the export of manufactured or non-traditionalproducts. Bodies such as the Export Development Board have been establishedto promote exports and to provide direct assistance to exporters in estab-lishing market links and in obtaining finance. However, the recent apprecia-tion of the exchange rate has largely dwarfed the positive incentive createdby these measures. Thus, before considering specific export assistancepolicies, recent trends in the exchange rate will be discussed.

109. As Graph 1 illustrates, the Sri Lankan rupee has more or less con-tinuously appreciated in real terms since 1977. The real effective exchangerate is defined as the nominal effective exchange rate adjusted for movementsin the price level of Sri Lanka relative to those of its major tradingpartners; it is equivalent to an index of relative prices expressed in acommon currency. As defined, an increase in the real effective exchange rateindicates a loss in overall price competitiveness. Although different indiceswill generate different absolute numbers, almost any acceptable methodology

would indicate a significant appreciation of the Sri Lanka rupee in comparisonwith the currencies of its export competitors, its major import suppliers,or its export markets.1/ The result has been a steady decline in both theprofitability of existing export businesses and those import-substitutionactivities unable to lobby for higher import tariffs, and an increase in theincentive to enter non-traded activities such as the distribution and tradingof imported products.

110. Leaving the exchange rate issue aside there are a number of specificexport promotion measures in effect in Sri Lanka. For example, exporters ofnon-traditional goods are eligible for a rebate of the import duty and BTTpaid on inputs.2/ These rebates represent an acceptable mechanism by which tooffset the disparate tax effect that local taxes (i.e., BTT and importtariffs) have on exporters. Although these rebates can be significant, thereare problems in administering the system. For example, exporters complainthat the process through which one claims a rebate is time consuming and itcan take several months until payment is received. Aside from the costsinvolved in obtaining the rebate, the system also generates unintendedincentives. The existence of high import tariffs and therefore substantialprofit opportunities in the domestic market, create strong incentives for someproducers to abuse the rebate system. A lower more neutral import tariffstructure would reduce such incentives as well as making the rebate schemeeasier to administer. It should also be noted that such a rebate scheme isnot a substitute for an appropriate exchange rate policy.

111. There are also schemes for exporters to obtain preshipment finance,export credit guarantees, export insurance, export expansion grants, andsubsidized credit. Some of these measures assist in reducing the bias againstexporters but they are selective and sometimes difficult or costly to attain.For example, there is a credit limit on the amount of preshipment financeavailable tied to refinancing by the Central Bank. Each commercial bankallocates its share of the subsidized credit to the larger and better knowncustomers, which places smaller or new firms at a disadvantage.Alternatively, the export insurance offered by the Sri Lanka Export CreditInsurance Corporation offers very little, if any, additional assistance toexporters. Its premium rates are said to be high, some potential customersquestion its readiness to meet its obligations, and it is conservative inaccepting risky exports. Potential investors also frequently complain aboutthe number of approvals required to start an export business and the timeofficial bodies require to process their application.

1/ Except the U.S.A.

2/ Beginning February 1, 1985, a system of bonded minufacturing for garmentexporters has been introduced. Therefore, the need for rebates togarment exporters will not arise.

112. Although exporters, like any other group of entrepreneurs, are alwayslikely to complain that incentives are insufficient and the Government shoulddo more, the absence of growth in manufactured exports, other than garments,supports their case. The aforementioned export promotion measures do indeedassist some exporters, but they are inadequate to overcome the anti-export oranti-traded goods obstacles which other policy measures produce. Theappreciation of the real exchange rate significantly reduces the response thatone can expect following the adoption of relatively minor export promotionmeasures. Producers of tradeables already confront an inadequate infrastruc-ture (roads, railways, telephone) which raises costs relative to competitors.Such a situation can only be made worse if other policins such as the exchangerate, tariff structure or investment approval system are so designed that theyin effect raise the costs and reduce the profitability of entering exportactivities relative to non-traded or heavily protected import-substitutionactivities.

Conclusion

113. In sum, the Government has begun to tackle in earnest several impor-tant issues, the resolution of which is required to achieve an acceleration inindustrial growth. The most important of these are the exchange rate, tradetaxes, reform of PEs, development of basic infrastructure and administrativereform. To help develop a consistent industrial policy framework, theGovernment has formed a high level Industrial Policy Committee. TheGovernment has also initiated the first phase of a thorough tariff reform andit has continued to press hard to initiate reform of the PE sector. Theseinitiatives must now be pursued further. The phased process of tariff reformmust be continued and certain anomalies in the first stage corrected.Concrete action to reform the public enterprise sector must be initiated earlysince this process is likely to take time. Above all it is crucial for theGovernment to establish and pursue an appropriate exchange rate policy whichwill keep Sri Lanka internationally competitive in a wide range of exportingand import substituting activities.

D. Downside Risks

114. The base scenario developed in this report rests upon some fairlyimportant changes in the current policy environment and, more in particular,the adoption of an export-led development strategy. In addition, controllinginflation and maintaining financial stability are assumed to be major objec-tives of the Government's monetary and fiscal policy. Should it prove, forwhatever reason, impossible to implement the policy reforms discussed above,the growth of the Sri Lankan economy in the medium term is likely to slow downconsiderably resulting in stagnant income levels and increasing unemployment.

115. To illustrate, two possible alternatives to the base scenario areshown in Table 10. Both involve lower projected export growth assuming thepolicy environment is not conducive to the development and expansion of non-traditional exports and hence a sharply lower domestic savings performance.

Page 64: Public Disclosure Authorized Sri Lanka: Recent Economic ......BALANCE OF PAYMENTS MERCRANDISE EXPORTS (1984) 1982 1983 1984 S Million Z (US$ illion) Tea 620 42.0 Exports of Goods,

In alternative I, the high rate of investment and GDP growth is maintainedthrough increased reliance on foreign borrowing to compensate for the short-fall in export receipts. A higher level of production for domestic privateconsumption or a higher level of government consumption spending, supported bycontinued rapid growth in imports, would, at least temporarily, lead to highertotal consumption growth than in the base scenario. However, in these condi-tions the external debt service ratio quickly rises to unacceptable levels,soon restricting the country's access to voluntary foreign capital inflows. Amore probable outcome of a lower export growth performance is alternative II.In this case, it is assumed that the Government reacts to the weaker exportperformance by curbing investment and import growth and reducing the growth ofoutput, incomes and employment. Foreign capital inflows would be such as tokeep the debt service ratio within manageable limits but would be insufficientto offset the lower level of export receipts. Given the limits to importsubstitution in a small economy such as Sri Lanka, import restrictions wouldmost probably have to be imposed. The rate of growth of total consumptionwould eventually be reduced severely. While this outcome does maintain finan-cial equilibrium, it would represent the failure of Government to achieve itsprime objectives of increasing employment, incomes and the general livinglevels of the population. In addition, it should be noted that the debtservice ratio would exceed that in the base scenario and would continue togrow, ultimately forcing an even lower rate of growth on the economy.

Chapcer III: THE BALANCE OF PAYMENTS OUTLOOK AND AID REQUIREMENTS

A. Balance of Payments Prospects and Borrowing Strategy

116. The balance of payments projectiuns implicit in the base scenario arepresented in Table 11. The overall outlook is for a stable balance of pay-ments situation with the public debt service ratio 1/ kept within prudentlimits.

Export Prospects

117. Exports of goods and non-factor services in real terms are expected togrow at 4.9% per year during 1984-89 and at 5.9% per year during 1989-94. Asexplained above, these growth rates depend on the restoration of internationalcompetitiveness, i.e., the pursuit of a realistic exchange rate policy sup-ported by strengthened export promotion measures. In the case of traditionalexports, the adoption of taxation/subsidy measures designed to increaseproducer margins significantly and, for the state plantations, the executionof the Medium-Term Investment Plan (MTIP) and associated management reformsshould ensure the rehabilitation and recovery of this sector. However,because of the long-gestating nature of the investments, traditional exportvolumes are expected to grow at only about 1.4% per annum through 1989.Thereafter, the implementation of the MTIP is expected to result in a realgrowth rate of traditional exports of close to 3% per year. Nevertheless, thegrowth potential of traditional exports is limited and Sri Lanka must looktowards an expansion in non-traditional exports if the Government's medium-term growth objectives are to be attained. The analysis in the base scenariosuggests that, to this end, non-traditional exports will have to grow ataround 9.5% per year in real terms over the coming years.

118. The country has considerable potential to increase output of non-traditional agricultural exports; with improvements in product quality andmarketing efficiency, an export growth target of 8% per year in real termsshould be attainable. While it is difficult to see the recent rapid growth ingarment exports recurring in the future, especially given the operation ofquota restrictions, a more moderate expansion of about 10% per year in realterms should be within reach, assuming that the costs of production in SriLanka remain competitive. The volume of other manufactured exports, startingfrom a low base, shoujd be able to expand at some 10% per year in real termsunder the assumed conditions of an appropriate incentives framework(Chapter II).

119. By 1988 the combined export earnings of non-traditional agriculturalproducts, garments and "other" manufactures, in current prices, should equalearnings from the three traditional exports (Table 12). This is a significantshift from 1980 when the latter made up 54% of merchandise export earningsversus only 22Z for the combined earnings of the former three product groups.The estimates in current prices have been derived using World Bank priceprojections for major commodities or commodity groups. For merchandiseexports as a whole, prices are projected to increase by about 20% over thenext five years. The export price of tea clearly is of major importance inthese projections. In the light of recent market developments, f.o.b. pricesfor tea have beei projected to decline from $3.03/kg in 1984 to $2.08/kg in1985 and to rise thereafter gradually to reach the 1984 level in current termsonly by 1989. In real terms tea prices in 1989 would be 40% below the veryhigh level in 1984.

120. The current political uncertainty has been highly detrimental to thetourism industry and earnings from tourism in 1985 are not expected to exceedthose of 1984. However, given the restoration of a stable social and politi-cal environment, the tourism sector should gradually resume expansion reachingannual growth rates of 8% in real terms. The growth in private remittanceswhich had been very rapid in recent years has begun to slow down; it isassumed in these projections that remittances will remain constant in realterms in the future.

Import Prospects

121. The policy environment subsumed in the base scenario, especially thepursuit of a realistic exchange rate policy, and tariff reform, will alsofacilitate efficient import substitution. This, together with restraint inpublic sector spending, should help reduce the rate of growth in imports.Nevertheless, in a growing open economy imports can be expected to continue toexpand fairly rapidly. Imports of goods and non-factor services in real termsare projected to grow at 4% per year during 1984-89 and at 4.2% per yearduring 1989-94.

122. Food imports should increase very slowly. The country has by nowbecome virtually self-sufficient in rice; sugar imports should decline asexisting capacity is more fully utilized and as several new sugar projectscome into operation; and, while wheat grain imports could expand quiterapidly, much will depend on the availability and price of rice. Growth inthe imports of other consumer goods should also be moderated by appropriateexchange rate and credit policies. In addition, consumption of petroleumproducts and thus petroleum imports should grow slower than in the past as thenew hydro schemes become fully operational. On the other hand, the demand forintermediate goods imports is anticipated to expand quite rapidly. Given SriLanka's natural resource base, any significant increase in economic growth andin exports of manufactures will necessarily entail a rapid expansion inimported intermediate inputs. Imports of capital goods could normally beexpected to grow at the rate of growth of capital formation. However, asprivate investment is, on the whole, less import/capital-intensive than publicinvestment, a reduction in the proportion of total investment accounted for bythe public sector should also assist in moderating the total demand forimported capital goods. In current prices, the most notable changes in thecomposition of imports between the early 1980s and 1988 are a continuingdecline in the relative importance of food imports Pnd an increase in theshare of imports of intermediate goods. The estimates in current prices arealso derived using World Bank price projections for major commodities.Merchandise import prices are projected to increase by about 35% over the nextfive years. This, together with the export price projections, results in adeterioration in Sri Lanka's terms of trade of about 11% over the next fiveyears when compared with 1984.

Foreign Exchange Requirements

123. The projections above imply that exports and private remittances wouldhave to cover roughly 88% of import requirements of goods and non-factorservices during 1985-88 compared with 80% during 1980-84 (see Table 13).There is a marked increase in amortization payments during 1985-88 comparedwith the previous period and there are substantial repayments to the IMF. Indollar terms, import requirements not covered by export earnings and privateremittances during 1985-88 amount to $1,350 million. In addition, over thesame period, interest payments and amortization on medium and long-term debtamount to $1,246 million, repayments to the IMF total $228 million, and thecumulative addit -n to gross reserves to maintain imports coverage at 3 monthsis $258 million. Total external capital requirements during 1985-88 thusamount to about $3 billion.

About 70% of the $3 billion of external finance needed during 1985-88is expected to come from official sources on highly concessionary terms.Grants from official sources are projected at about $600 million and disburse-ments of loans from bilateral and multilateral sources at about $1,550million. About 40% of these disbursements or $850 million would be availablefrom the pipeline at the end of 1984. Therefore, new commitments from offi-

cial sources, loans and grants, would have to rise from $460 million in 1984to $600 million by 1988. It should be noted that this Level of commitmentsimplies no growth in real terms.

125. Commitments of official assistance have declined substantially fromthe peak of $800 million in 1981. In the past two years they have averagedabout $450 million a year (Table 14), partly because both Government anddonors made a conscious effort to limit the introduction of new projects in apublic investment program which had grown beyond the country's absorptivecapacity. Current indications are that the aid donors are likely to make newcommitments amounting to about $500 million during 1985. For 1986 we wouldalso recommend to the donors a level of new aid commitments in the range of$500-550 million. This level of support is a vital component in the overallstrategy of restructuring the Sri Lankan economy at the same time as contain-ing foreign commercial borrowing at a manageable level. Areas most urgentlyin need of support include rehabilitation of existing irrigation schemes,completion of downstream work in Mahaweli, rehabilitation of the road network,power transmission and generation, and telecommunications. Financing of localexpenditures in support of the Government's own efforts to raise public sectorsavings and reduce the overall budget deficit should also receive highpriority.

Private Sources of Funds

126. Of the roughly $3 billion in foreign exchange requirements during1985-88 (para 123) some $935 million would still have to be met from privatesources. About $215 million is expected in the form of private direct foreigninvestment, and the remaining $720 million would have to come in the form ofloans from suppliers' credits and commercial bank loans. To support thislevel of disbursements, new commitments of private loans would need to risefrom $130 million in 1985 to about $285 million by 1988.

127. A substantial portion of this commercial borrowing would be relatedto cofinancing requirements for some large projects with good economicjustification, such as the major upcoming power projects. Additionalcofinancing needs are likely to arise in the future, and it is important forSri Lanka to monitor carefully its reliance on commercial borrowing fordevelopment. As with all borrowing, it is crucial that the funds be appliedtowards efficient undertakings, whether in export production, import substitu-tion or infrastructure designed to increase productivity throughout theeconomy. In addition, it must be stressed that even this limited level ofcommercial borrowing is only feasible if exports grow as projected. Ofcourse, if additional concessionary assistance were to become available beyondlevels projected, then the reliance on commercial assistance could be reduced.In any event the Government will have to make important choices in allocatingthe limited concessionary funds among sectors. Care should be taken not touse concessionary aid to provide 100% financing for those projects suitablefor commercial cofinancing, as this would divert funds away from other impor-tant government programs in such sectors as transport, health or education.

B. External Debt Management

128. In the base scenario, with a concerted effort to build up exports,strong support from donors, and prudence in the use of commercial debt, SriLanka's debt servicing burden is manageable. Implementation of the policiesdiscussed earlier would result in the country becoming increasinglycreditworthy. The public debt service ratio, including IMF charges andrepurchases, rises to 18.8% in 1987 but then declines to 18.0% in 1988 and15.1% in 1994. Currently, Sri Lanka's external public debt, including undis-bursed debt, amounts to about $3.7 billion or the equivalent of 62% of CDP:disbursed debt alone amounts to $2.4 billion or 40% of GDP (Table 15). Thecomparatively low debt service ratio results because more than three quartersof the country's public debt is on highly concessionary terms. Nevertheless,as a share of CDP, interest payments alone are expected to continue to amountto a relatively high 2% during the next few years.

129. As explained before the Sri Lankan economy remains highly vulnerableto world price changes in a few commodities, especially tea. For instance, iftea prices were to remain at the estimated average 1985 level in currentprices during the next 3 years and the foreign exchange gap is met by addi-tional commercial borrowing, the debt service ratio would rise 3 percentagepoints above that in the base scenario. This vulnerability underscores theneed to follow a countercyclical foreign reserves policy and maintain anaverage level of reserves at 3 months' imports coverage. The most crucialelement in balance of payments management, however, is to ensure that theexport growth targets are achieved. If they are not, borrowing from privateand official sources on non-concessionary terms will have to be curtailedsignificantly. In that case, Sri Lanka would then find its import capacityreduced significantly resulting in a lower rate of growth in production andemployment.

130. A program of adjustment along the lines set out 4- Chapter II isessential for sustained growth in the economy and for an mproved exportperformance. Success with the latter is crucial to the maintenance of asatisfactory external debt situation and improved creditworthiness. Onlyunder these circumstances can a policy of assuming additional commercial debtbe regarded as prudent.
