Awarding the people who help them to get the business. Isn't it kind of a bribery too?

Ahhh. How much is the price worth to receipient. And what did the receipient sell - part of his country?

What about any special award to our former president and present president.

As far a i know, Dr. Kodituwakku has been completely above board and without any controversy. The same way that Sri Lankan ambassadors make deals for the benefit of the country, (unlike jaliya and udayanga who are being investigated at present) so do ambassadors of other nations in whichever country they serve. Do you think the port city or Hambantota Harbour or even Mattala would have come about without the work done by the Chinese ambassador to Sri Lanka on behalf of his government? Ambassadors are supposed to make deals with the respective countries that they serve in for the betterment of their nation.
