我們最開始從一家加拿大公司和一家丹麥公司，收到了可行性研究報(bào)告，兩家公司都建議我們建設(shè)這一港口。這些可行性研究報(bào)告跟斯里蘭卡和中國都沒有半點(diǎn)關(guān)系。不能含沙射影地說，我們是為了建造一個(gè)港口，才去做了可行性研究。

We first received feasibility studies from a Canadian company and then from a Danish company. Both of these companies recommended the construction of this port, and it was not as if these feasibility studies were done by Sri Lankans or the Chinese. But no insinuation could be made that the feasibility studies were done in order to construct the harbor.
