May foreigners die in Sri Lanka and only a very few Sri Lankans die overseas other than in the Middle East. Sri Lanka cannot protect its own citizens and even foreigners. GMOA is buy in politics.

YOU > I did not mean GMOA mean must protect foreigners. If you understood it that way, it shows your literacy level. Sad to say that. What I meant was that tehj GMOA doesn't have a strategy nor a system that is focussed on such issues because when foreigners die in our country like this, it reflects bad on our country. Now do you understand? In return it affects our struggling economy.

We Srilankans are not god to save people from natural causes of death..many people who have bad health issues mainly from the western countries sell all their life savings and come to enjoy their life till the last moment in this island...As srilanka is a place where you can enjoy with a little money...of course there are thugs and rowdies...but doesn’t every country have them?
