The Buzz | Chinese company to resume work on Sri Lankan port city

A Chinese company said yesterday it will resume construction of a USD1.5 billion port city project in Sri Lanka, about a year after it was suspended because of questions about its environmental impact.
CHEC Port City Colombo said it welcomed the Sri Lankan government’s decision to allow the project to continue.
The city is to be built on reclaimed land off Sri Lanka’s west coast and include a golf course, marinas, apartments, hotels and malls.
The project created disquiet in neighboring India over the possibility China might be allowed outright land ownership.
