    Govt. please make it policy to disclose all taxpayer funded foreign trips, those attending, their associated expenses and the benefits they expect to bring to our country.

    What a difference. MR would have taken a whole Sri Lankan aircraft to NY costing tens of millions of our money.

    At least now the President can travel to the US unlike the previous dictator who only was able to visit anti US countries degrading our country further. via DM Android App

    Emirates should be ranked a 7 star airlines by Skytrax rather than 4 star cos it has even the Head of state who is a loyal patron of Emirates rather than his own national carrier despite major safety issues and general poor customer service ny Emirates.
