Sri Lankan Government officers stage protest, they demand to reduce cost of living and increase by 20000 LKR their salaries in Colombo, Sri Lanka on October 30, 2023 The high cost of living in Sri Lanka can be attributed to several interconnected factors. The depreciation of the Sri Lankan rupee against major foreign currencies has made imports more expensive, directly affecting the prices of goods and services as many items are imported. The country's substantial external debt burden exerts immense pressure on its finances, with a significant portion of the government's budget allocated to servicing this debt, limiting the funds available for crucial social programs that could ease the cost of living for citizens. Additionally, external factors such as global economic uncertainty and the disruptive impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have further strained the country's economy and contributed to price increases. Rising energy costs, particularly for fuel and electricity, have created a cascading effect on the prices of goods and services, as transportation and manufacturing costs have surged. Reductions in government subsidies on essential items, including fuel and food, have directly translated into higher prices for consumers, exacerbating the cost of living. Moreover, the presence of income inequality means that many Sri Lankans struggle to afford basic necessities as the overall cost of living continues to rise, necessitating a multifaceted approach to address these challenges comprehensively.

People wade through a flooded section of the road in Kathmandu, Nepal, on July 3, 2025, following a heavy downpour as the monsoon takes hold over Nepal. Usually, the monsoon clouds start entering Nepal on June 13, but this time they enter a fortnight earlier than the usual schedule. It usually lasts until the last week of September. The Met office predicts that Nepal is likely to witness above-normal monsoon rainfall this year. Nepal annually faces disasters of floods, landslides, and inundation during the monsoon, resulting in the loss of lives and properties. As the Himalayan nation braces for above-average rainfall this year, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA) predicts that around two million (1,997,731) people from 457,145 households could be affected by monsoon-related disasters.
