To celebrate the newly introduced Liya Diriya by Assetline, the Company hosted a safe riding program by a professional driving academy in Colombo.
The full day program provided the participating women with comprehensive training on riding technics, road safety measures, road rules covering both the theory and practical aspects culminating in a written examination and a certificate to the successful candidates.
The program was in keeping with one of the key objectives of Liya Diriya by Assetline, which focuses on financing mobility solutions for women.
Thilan Kulasooriya, Product Lead, Assetline Leasing Company said, “Women play so many different roles in our community as mothers, wives, entrepreneurs, professionals, business leaders etc.; owning their own means of transport not only ensures their safety and convenience in today’s Covid-19 impacted environment but also is critical in building their businesses, studying, ferrying family around and so much more. Assetline intends to rollout similar programs, throughout Sri Lanka, which will upskill and empower women and this was the precursor of many more to come.
