Family and Educational Background

Yet, rising above the anguish of his past, Mr. Tambimuttu went on to obtain a degree from Durham University, in the United Kingdom, becoming an economist with a dynamic vision.

Mr.Tambimuttu has worked, travelled and lived in many cities of Europe and China. His expertise lies in investments and fund management. He is therefore well able to understand the ground realities of what it takes to reengineer Batticaloa, and he is equipped to manage the transition from the economically challenged district it has become, to the dynamic hub it can be.

The recent International Indian Film Award (IIFA) which has been an opportunity to highlight the progress made in Sri Lanka, had the notable participation of Mr. Arun Tambimuttu who spoke at the forum held by CNBC on the developmental issues faced by post war Eastern Province

Arun Tambimuttu's question dumfounds and stuns Channel 4 Director


‘When my father Sam Thambimuttu and my mother were killed brutally in front of the Canadian High Commission by the Tigers , where were you ?’ . This was the question  posed by a new politico Arun Tambimuttu to Callum McRay of channel 4 and Tiger supporter Jaan Jananayagam at a conference held at Printline Hall , London on the 17th. This question dumbfounded all of them .
 Those who killed my father and my mum are in Batticaloa. If I take action against them , can you tell me what will be the consequence ? he questioned further.
 The entire crowd that was at the Hall were shocked and nonplussed on hearing this.
All of you who had come from SL to London and indulging in personal pleasures , how can you  campaign on behalf of the Tamils ? how can you say the Tigers are not murderers ? . Callum McRay who was the target of Arun ‘s questions could not utter a word.
