Due to the resignation of Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau (SLTPB) Chairman Kishu Gomes last Friday, Tourism Development, Wildlife and Christian Religious Affairs Minister John Amaratunga has appointed Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority Chairman Johanne Jayaratne as the acting SLTPB Chairman.


His appointment is effective from November 15. 


An SLTDA statement said the temporary appointment comes as a request from the tourism industry as the SLTPB plays a vital role in promoting Sri Lanka as a tourist 
destination globally.
