    Why would rich people come to Negombo? There is nothing. Benefit for the city? No, people have everything in the hotel. Negombo will not benefit.First make Negombo ready for tourists

    In Mr. Rohan Karr, you have the best possible hoteliering brain you can ever think of. Hayley's are surely heading in the right direction.
