    China is allowed becos of road commission and other project will be cancelled. Even people of this country die also no problem. Family paksa pockets to be filled by china. World knows that china is the main country to spread the corona virus. In most of the countries china is a ban. But Sri lanka is giving more freedom for them to enter in the country.
