At least four Chinese workers were hospitalised following a clash between them and the local workers in Ambalanthota today, the Police said.

The clash between the Chinese and local workers, who were working at a Mirijjavila five star hotel project, had erupted today following an argument between the two groups.

The Police said the injured were admitted to the Hambantota Hospital. However, the hospital sources said they were undergoing treatment for minor injuries.

No one had been arrested so far in connection with the incident. (Sanath Gamage)

There's no need to have Chinese workers while we have many of our people without jobs going to middle east to die/ be trapped.
