This is a good chance for the tourism ministry..

I dont know how the Tourist Board expected Sri Lankans to spend such huge amounts of money for an awards ceremony, when the country is suffering with floods. Rs.25,000/-, for a 'back seat ticket,' could be spent in proving food or shelter to the victims.

I just cannot believe that anyone in SL is prepared to spend so much on a ticket. They must all be either overflowing with money or going mad?

The headline is misleading - the word 'slashed' implies that the same tickets were, previously, higher priced.

I suppose this is what this government calls "Suba Anagathayak"?
