Presidential Senior Advisor Duminda Hulangamuwa has reportedly declined an offer to become the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance.
The position was expected to become vacant in June due to the retirement of the current secretary, Mahinda Siriwardana.
Reliable sources indicate that Hulangamuwa was offered the position after Siriwardana’s retirement. However, Hulangamuwa, currently holding a director position in a private company, has decided not to accept the government role.
