Hone your English skills in an international community

While Sri Lanka is an Asian country, English is used as the medium of instruction in many institutions and is also spoken widely by the local population. Since the colonial era, English has become a primary form of communication. There are also a number of courses available to obtain certification for your language skills, such as IELTS and TOEFL.
The reason English is so widely spoken in Sri Lanka is partly because of its mixed community. With people coming together from so many different backgrounds, English is used as the common language, so you’ll be able to practice your language skills among different communities.
