Hoteliers complain that they are spendthrift and so what is the point of counting numbers especially when diaspora coding families and friends and staying with them.

Don’t forget in the middle of Bombings and raging war tourists arrived in Sri Lanka due to good work of publicity done by tourists board since it establishment in 1966 and other stake holders in the industry in addition to low value of rupees against all major currencies . We are not able to capture high spending segment of this market up to now. It is still a buyers market It is still economic circumstances and good name we have established as a tourist destination and stake holders efforts keep this industry going on. It is the challenge to all stake holders to rebuild this industry and turning into sells’ market to make very profitable in current global competitive environment.

Please visit Hikkaduwa. Typically these “tourists “ are almost all Russians. They rent a room and sun lease it, buy the cheapest fish and fruit to subsist. They even have their own Montessori arranged. Hotels are mostly undersold and, as usual we Sri Lankans are being fooled! By our government and these “tourists “. Do what the Burmese do. At the point of entry, a tourist must purchase a set amount of Burmese currency and that is not refundable.
