What is good about Satchin compared to using funds to feed hungry Wednesday, 09 August 2023 08:32 AM
Sachin trip sponsored by UNICEF money. Could that money better be spent to feed a dozen children for month than getting this cricket celebrity to come over?

If Sachin is ambassador, there will be more aid donors and sponsors. Fund flow will increase to poor. That's the reason to bring in celebrities.
If SL doesn't want celebrities, it can convey the same to UNICEF and ask for the funds that are meant to bring the celebrity. I know the answer though.

Still Sri Lanka is earning from Sachin trip. The flight tickets and purchases go to sri Lankan economy. You can collect from them

why don't you ask your parliamentarians to forego their salary and feed the poor in SL.
Or stop the SL cricket matches and feed the poor
UNICEF money does not belong to SL
