Hearts together on Colombo port

China and Sri Lanka join to create 'pearl of Indian Ocean'

COLOMBO - Looking out the window, Sanjeewa Alwis could easily see the dredging vessels in the distance, strenuously pumping the yellow sea sand into the air, which resembles a bridge built between Colombo's beautiful clouds and the construction site of Colombo Port City.

Such a sight reminded Sanjeewa of many fond memories, especially that of participating in the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation held in Beijing last year.
