In Dept. of Census and Statistics on April 5, 2008 at 8:10 am

The Department of Census and Statistics in Sri Lanka is a treasure trove of fiction, sorry statistics. This archive gives offline access to all the data on the site, including:

  • Population
  • Labour Force
  • Agriculture
  • Education
  • Trade
  • Social Conditions
  • Prices
  • National Accounts
  • Income and Expenditure
  • Poverty Indicators
  • MDG Indicators

The archive also contains the comprehensive information on the damage caused by the December 2004 tsunami and the statistical abstract for 2007.

Note that the site seems to have been done on Microsoft FrontPage 6.0 (gasp!) so though the fancy graphics and menus don’t load, the text links to all the content work just fine.
