Mar 01, Colombo: Although there was no violence and there is an apparent reduction of threats against journalists in Sri Lanka after the January 08 election , significant challenges to press freedom are still remaining in Sri Lanka, an international media organization said.

An international media mission to Sri Lanka representing international journalists organizations said Surveillance, monitoring and following of journalists are incompatible with a free media and the principles of open government that should underpin the 100 day reform process.

The international media mission, which represents the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ), the International Press Institute and International Freedom of Expression Exchange, said the continued surveillance of journalists and media organizations in the north of Sri Lanka must cease.
