Diana re-confirms she will leave for US to initiate talks with Walt Disney

State Minister of Tourism Diana Gamage today reconfirmed that she will leave for US soon to initiate talks on inviting Walt Disney to invest in a theme park in Sri Lanka. 

Responding to social media claims that the Disneyland project was false, she said that she was in touch with the Walt Disney group and would soon visit the US to initiate discussions. 

She also said that a project of such a scale would benefit Sri Lanka and also boost Sri Lanka's tourism sector. 

She said she was determined to attract projects to Sri Lanka which would strengthen the economy as well as benefit other sectors. 

If the discussions are successful, Sri Lanka will be able to construct South Asia's first Disneyland.
