The title is similar to one seen commonly here.."China clashes with USA over XYZ(Country)"
looks like this poster also is suffering from the same delusional fantasies.There is only one country which can help SL in the diplomatic mess they are in...I dont want to say it..The OP will go in to fits but every one knows that...

The article has not mentioned any problems between the US and China over Sri Lanka.
It merely mentions that it happened on the eve of the visit of the Chinese leader.
Has the US objected to the visit of the Chinese leader to SL?
That has not been mentioned.
So, where is the problem between the US and China over SL?
Have I missed anything?

Nov 23, 2011 (LBO) - China has emerged as the top lender to Sri Lanka in the nine months to September 2011, in terms of money actually disbursed and loans committed for new projects, finance ministry data shows.
Up to September 2011, China has disbursed 599.9 million US dollars out of a total of 1,573.9 billion US dollars.
Japan came second with 239.4 million US dollars of which 11.9 million were grants and India third with 179 million US dollars, a finance ministry report said.
Asian Development Bank disbursed 171.8 million US dollars of which 12.5 million were grants and the World Bank 166.2 million dollars of which 4.7 million were grants.
Japan has traditionally been Sri Lanka's largest source of foreign financing. Though the financing is given at concessionary rates, the rising yen has increased the cost of past borrowings.
China is giving loans at near commercial terms through mainly from its Export Import Banks to finance Chinese project goods and construction services.
Sri Lanka has increased procurements from export import banks in recent years from other countries as well.
China also committed the most money to new projects in the nine months to September accounting for 784.7 million dollars out of 1,802.09 million dollars.
Japan came second with 520.48 million US dollars. ADB was third with 231.1 million dollars and World Bank third with 103.5 million US dollars followed by UN agencies with 79.52 million US dollars.
