Such is the case with an Oakville firm which recently got the goâ€"ahead to build a $380â€"million coalâ€"fired genâ€" erating station in Sri Lanka, an island in the Indian Ocean just southâ€"east of India. "Sri Lanka will be a newly indusâ€" trialized country by the year 2,000," prophesized John Walker, president of Mihaly International Canada Limited, an international management consultâ€" ing and investment firm in Oakville. Mihaly beat out a Japaneseâ€"British consortium and an Indian consortium to get the contract for the project which, during its three years of conâ€" struction, will put 1,000 Sri Lankans to work in a country where unemployâ€" ment is rife. It will take another year before operations begin with 250 Sri Lankan permanent staff and six overâ€" seers from Oakville at the helm. Under the banner of the South Asia Electricity Corporations with headâ€" quarters in Oakville and Colombo, Sri Lanka‘s capital, the plant will operate for 20 years and then be turned over to the Sri Lankan government for one rupee (five cents Canadian), said Walker. By that time, investors, loans and interest will have been paid off and the Canadian company will have reaped of profit of 15% on its investâ€" ment on the power the Sri Lankan government has promised to buy. It‘s a winâ€"win situation. "We‘re building the station so the costs of the project don‘t add to the country‘s national debt," said Walker. "And we get to invest in a project that has a nice steady return on investâ€" ment." Construction is expected to begin in February, said Walker, who will draw on a consortium of industries from Australia, the U.S. (which will supply boilers), Switzerland, Germany, Canada, England and Italy for supplies and expertise. Last week, Walker and Sri Lanka‘s minister of power and energy, Chandra Bandara, were busy touring power plants and talking to officials in Ontario, many of whom will be supâ€" plying equipment and technology for the project. Bandara said the new plant in Trincomalee, a large port on Sri Lanka‘s eastern coast, will increase his country‘s supply of energy by 25%. It will help improve Sm Lanka‘s standard of living by supplying elecâ€" tricity to more villages and "small and mediumâ€"sized" industries manufacturâ€" 578 Kerr St. 844â€"7272 GLENLEVEN MOTORS LTD. 2388 Royal Windsor Dr. Oakville Noel‘s Auto Service Ltd.

"At the moment, we‘re meeting industrial needs but those needs have been increasing over the past two or three years," he said. "We now have 100,000 people working in new indusâ€" tries." To meet manufacturing demands, Sri Lanka‘s electricity output has been growing at 10% a year as opposed to Ontario‘s which has decreased by â€" 6%, noted Walker. As a Third World country, Bandara said Sri Lanka "has no desire to have a nuclear power plant" and so opted for coal. Nor did the energy minister foresee any problems with terrorist activity in the course of building the plant. He said, of eight groups of Tamils fightâ€" ing for a separate state in northern Sri Lanka, seven have given up and have been given governmental representaâ€" tion. "‘They realized it‘s not a possibiliâ€" ty," he said. "You can‘t have it (a sepâ€" arate state) in such a small country." Although Walker has worked on power projects in other parts of the world since he set up Mihaly International six years ago, the one in Sri Lanka is the "first big project" undertaken by the newlyâ€"formed South Asian Electricity Corporation. But it‘s only the beginning. He looks on it as the basis for constructing other plants in the region, including India, Bangladesh and Vietnam. "My expertise is packaging capital projects around the world," he said. Cdn.
