Police Headquarters yesterday said that they were continuing to track down tourists who are engaged in business activities while possessing a tourist visa.Police said that such arrests are not targeted on their nationality. A senior police officer said there is a law that the tourists have to obey as well.
“There is a law that they are not able to do business in Sri Lanka while just having a tourist visa,” he said.
Most of such business activities are carried out by Indian and Chinese nationals who enter Sri Lanka in large numbers on a monthly basis. (Supun Dias)

Western and wealthy tourists look for other cheaper destination such as Malaysia and Thailand who have no such formalities and the hotels/meals are much cheaper when compare to Sri Lanka but still we build more and more hotels for no obvious reason.
No harm done to the economy if the Indian and Chinese do business here with whatever visa.
Leave the visa system like in Singapore; after all, we are still third world from the eyes of the world.
Don't just exaggerate!!!!
Now they & Chinese are coming with their products.
Newton's Law
All these days where were they ?
Tourist won’t drop or neither it effect the incoming tourist if we have a proper control of arrival and departures.
If you take out of the Indian Tourist alone 90% arrivals who comes on tourist visa does business like the locals spicily from Tamil Nadu
Do you know the consequences that a Sir Lankan will face in Asia if they get caught in business who has come on tourist visa??
Govt should take a tough approach who breaks the law
