High Net Worth Individual (HNI) Manoj Cooray has been appointed Deputy Treasurer of the United National Party (UNP) according to party sources.
Cooray, a seasoned financial services professional, previously served as Chief Executive Officer of Sampath Securities and as a Director of the Board of Investment of Sri Lanka (BOI). Now in semi-retirement, he remains a longstanding stalwart of the UNP and a loyal supporter of former President Ranil Wickremesinghe.
In his new role, Cooray is expected to spearhead a subscription-based membership drive targeting professionals, entrepreneurs and young executives. The initiative is aimed at broadening the party’s membership base, strengthening its organisational network and reconnecting the UNP with a wider cross-section of the professional community.
His appointment comes as the party looks to strengthen its organisational structures and build a more extensive network of members and supporters.
