Sri
Lanka Telecom stands at the forefront of the communications
industry in Sri Lanka and is rapidly moving out to the global
community. We have widened global boundaries, firstly by bringing
people closer together via the telephone. As technology advanced,
and as we introduced each new product and service that such
technology spawned, we began to see boundaries ceasing to be.
Today, the communications industry has virtually no boundaries.
Worldwide Internet based products and services put people in
touch with the remotest corner of the globe - at the touch of
a button, and through a series of relatively inexpensive service
providing systems and networks.
Ironically, in a “boundary-less” world, SLT’s
business pursuits has not only brought a wide stakeholder group
closer together, but the Company has also integrated itself
much more closely with their lives and the environment within
which we all co-exist.
This close integration, like any worthwhile relationship, thrives
on deep respect, morals and ethics of the highest order, recognition
of the rights of all parties to co-exist and enjoy a healthy
symbiosis and a highly responsible and protective attitude towards
the world we live in.
That said, the presentation of this Social Impact Report becomes
totally relevant to the Company.
Our Customers
They are our “reason to be”. Fulfilling their communications
needs has been our core business over the years. We are truly
proud to serve customers from every walk of life. The variety
of need that they bring to the table keeps us providing optimum
solutions, whether they be a simple telephone connection, or
a sophisticated multi-point, multi-product offer.

Our Shareholders
They’ve put their faith in the Company, invested in it,
followed its progress and supported it through the years. Our
shareholders have nurtured us towards making SLT an extremely
successful institution. In reciprocation we have a duty to return

whilst maintaining a high degree of responsibility and ethics.

Our Employees
They are the brain and brawn of the Company; the people who
give life to vision and planning; who take enterprise from the
drawing board to the customer and beyond. Increasingly more
so than ever before, our employees are the “face”
of the Company; the image that is imprinted and remains in the
“minds eye” of the customer.

Our Community
Just as every individual has a place in society and the community,
so does SLT, as an institution. We occupy a place in people’s
lives, not just because we provide them with products and services,
unique thought they may be since we are in the business of putting
people in touch with each other, but because we form relationships
that allow both parties to enter the life of the other.

Our Environment
Every living being receives a rich bounty of sustenance from
the environment. There would be no enterprise, no life whether
corporate or private without the bounties of nature.

Corporate Governance
One of the key facets of our social responsibility system is
the corporate governance structure. Our system of corporate
governance is based on transparency, equity and efficiency focusing
on the need for consistent progress of the Company, and with
a view to laying a solid foundation for management and oversight.
