We read six newspapers
so you can read one page.

Sri Lanka Update is the island's daily cheat sheet. Every morning we comb through the serious press, the business pages and the corners of the internet where the actually interesting stories hide, then rewrite the best of it in plain, occasionally cheeky English.

No breaking-news panic. No 40-paragraph stories that should have been four. Just bite-size, evergreen reads: power lists, hidden histories, money moves and the stuff mainstream media is too busy to notice.

Every fact traces back to the original reporting, and we link our receipts at the bottom of every story. The jokes are ours; the journalism belongs to the people who did it.
