    Polling stations opened this morning for early parliamentary elections in Sri Lanka, considered a test for President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, who was elected only seven weeks ago. The main concern for the population remains the economy: the number of people living below the poverty line has risen to 25.9% in the last four years, while the World Bank expects limited growth of 2.2% this year.
