Requesting clarification of a sentence in the article "Ceylon Tea"

I am in the process of some general clean-up of the "Ceylon Tea" article.

You included the following sentence:

"Even though the Sri Lankan tea industry has a competitive advantage, it finds difficulties in capitalising on the advantage owing to the inability of engaging in international marketing activities."

From what I understood from the article and from reading some of the references cited, Sri Lanka is losing market share to Kenya, largely because higher production costs in Sri Lanka are allowing Kenya to undercut them in price. I therefore don't understand the claim that Sri Lankan tea has an inherent "competitive advantage." If so, what is the advantage? Please understand that I mean no disrespect to either you or your country; I simply don't understand what the advantage is.

You also mention that the Sri Lankan tea industry cannot use this advantage because of its "inability of engaging in international marketing activities." Why is the industry unable to do this? Do you mean that it is operating under legal, monetary, or other constraints that actively make it impossible for them to market their product on an international scale, or are you simply saying that they are failing to do this because they don't understand what's necessary or are unwilling to take this step for some reason?

Please reply on my user talk page. Ormewood (talk) 20:52, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Hi Chanakal I show your effort om developing the Dutch Ceylon page on Sri Lanka. It was very descriptive and organized. Keep your good work. Mithila Madawa Gunathilake (talk) 18:51, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
@Mithila Madawa Gunathilake: Hey, Thanks for the barnstar.
BTW, I partially undid your edit to People's Leasing & Finance. Google usually misread Rs symbol as INR in their Google Knowledge Graph, therefore I usually explicitly use currency code LKR. Per MOS:CURRENCY there should be no gap between symbol and figure.
I must say this too. It is @Blackknight12: the one who doing a great job in keeping history articles in order in WikiProject Sri Lanka. He is the history buff and has done a great job over the years. Cheers!--Chanaka L (talk) 14:49, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

@Chanakal: මොකක්ද අරකේ ප්‍රශ්නේ කියලා කියනවාද?

@Cricket sudda21: Article එක ලියල ඉවර නැත්නම් personal sandbox එකේ වැඩ කරන්න. Article එක ඉවර උනාට පස්සේ විතරක් main space එකට ගෙනියන්න. Copy/paste කරල ලියන්න පටන් ගන්න එපා main space එකේ.--Chanaka L (talk) 16:42, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
@Chanakal: ඉවර කරලා තියෙන්නේ දැන් ප්‍රශ්නයක් නෑ නේ
@Cricket sudda21: You cannot copy/paste as you wish in the main space. There are relevant guidelines in place you need to follow. Please read WP:COPYWITHIN. Whatever the case, refain using the main space for drafting articles going forward as I mentioned above.--Chanaka L (talk) 09:34, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
