Overseas Sri Lankans have launched a social media campaign to generate dollars for Sri Lanka through official banking channels.

The decision was made following yesterday’s resignation of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa.

The #SriLankaDollarChallenge has been launched in an effort to assist Sri Lanka in overcoming its current economic difficulties and foreign exchange crisis.

The challenge invites Sri Lankans living abroad to join and challenge other Sri Lankans living abroad.
