Swasiland man was here and now Seychelles, who is coming next, probably from another country we have never heard of. Why can't we we get the world leading and powerful countries to visit us.

Some people commenting here are showing their ignorance.....

When a foreign leader visits another country there is usually a minister in attendance.

He is often not the foreign minster.

It's a paradise with beautiful white sand beaches, importantly law & order prevails there unlike Sri Lanka.

Seychells has a population of 84,000. Less than that of Colombo North. Why bother with them ? Are we insuring future UN votes ?
