Dear Chaska,
Pay scales in srilanka will be approxi. in us dollars-
a 9-5 maid? 9-10 per day or 250 per month
a driver? 350-400 per month with accommodation
a carpenter? 30-40 per day
a personal assistant? 500 upward per month
Also for land costs average per hectare- very as per the location and other.... so approximately outer colombo city limits -
9000-1000 per perch(40 perch= 1rood)
Ambalangoda/Galle/Waligama/Mathara (down south) also the same, but larger the extend price go down.
