Dhammika Perera, the billionaire businessman who controls the Vallibel One Group, was named the richest Sri Lankan by "The Rich List 2013 Sri Lanka" A new study values Perera's personal fortune at a minimum of USD($) 538 million or Rs 70 billion. Last week "Forbes Asia" valued Sri Lanka's biggest individual publicly-listed shareholder at Rs 72.6 billion or $ 550 million. The businessman topped the Rich List 2013 list by a huge margin-his nearest rival was the 80 year old Sohli Captain who the Rich List estimated at $ 423 million-Rs. 55 billion. Harry Jayawardena came in third with $ 307 million
