The Sri Lanka Association of Inbound Tour Operators (SLAITO), One Industry One Voice members, and the City Restaurants Collective said they commend the efforts taken by President Gotabaya  Rajapaksa and Tourism Minister Prasanna Ranatunga to initiate the necessary steps to gradually open the industry for business. “We are delighted that finally the authorities have relaxed the rules for restaurants and they have taken the steps to vaccinate the front line staff of all tourism related establishments.
