On the controversial topic of the capital of Sri Lanka: The administrative capital of Sri Lanka is Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, whereas Colombo is the executive and judicial capital. As someone who travels to Colombo daily, I have to say I agree. Colombo by de facto is but its not official so here its a no no.
