Sri Lankan president appoints cabinet after political crisis Thursday Dec 20,2018

Sri Lankan President Maithripala Sirisena appointed a 30-member cabinet, days after Ranil Wickremesinghe was reinstated as prime minister following a lengthy political crisis.
Sirisena administered oaths in a private event on Thursday. Mangala Samaraweera was reappointed as finance minister as parliament considers a temporary budget aimed at avoiding a government shut down from January 1.
Wickremesinghe's reinstatement as prime minister earlier this week and the appointment of a new cabinet will result in Sri Lanka's government resuming functions that have been obstructed since October. 2018
