a british tourist was killed and his gf raped last chirstmas and no one has been convicted is also breathtaking, you should have read that first before looking at photoshoped pictures on the internet. Hope you get home safely with your hubby.

It means if each had spent minimum of US$ 1,000/= , the minimum Foreign currency earned should US$ One billion.

Who is the 1 millionth here?
either one of them has to be the 1million-1 or 1million+1 th.

On another vein, think about the millions starving all across the country.

Pretty contradictory if you ask me - how does he know its "as beautiful and breathtaking as presented in the photos. Moreover, Sri Lankans are very hospitable and kind." without even having stepped out of the airport. Any way, we wish him a pleasant stay in our beautiful isle.

How many of this number are Sri Lankans living abroad with foreign nationalities ? How do they differentiate them from real tourists.
