Studying how to waste taxpayers' money.
Keerthi Thursday, 03 August 2023 09:28 AM
Exactly correct
APPUHAMY Wednesday, 02 August 2023 06:14 PM
Is this necessary currently? Who's money are they spending?
Katukanna Tissa Wednesday, 02 August 2023 06:23 PM
Who’s paying this massive bill ? Air tickets to NZ ain’t cheap, hotels , transport
Tax Payer Wednesday, 02 August 2023 08:15 PM
Oh, what have they gone to study ? Is the jaunt on Tax Payers' money ?
DJ Wednesday, 02 August 2023 08:16 PM
They will learn absolutely nothing. Enjoy the Taxpayers money.
Nihal Wednesday, 02 August 2023 09:27 PM
Shopping with taxpayers money
Dolly Dias Wednesday, 02 August 2023 09:39 PM
What a waste of money. Countries (in this case NZ) should not have issued visas to these politicians when people in their country (Sri Lanka) is suffering. Well on the other hand its a lot of tourist money for NZ at the cost of poor Sri Lankan's cost. Dolly

The women MPS look happy and relaxed in the photos, hope they gained some valuable insights into the adaptability of the Kiwi, their self reliance and work ethic, their hands on approach to problems, their thrift, their innovative skills.How a small country with a small population has dealt with big problems successfully by adapting to their environment and being pragmatic

No money for essential medicine but how did the government find Dollars for this frolicking jaunt.

Fortunately I'm not in Sri Lanka now. See even the JVP so-called professional is on the trip. Can't belive anyone when they have ground the rip all their morale values
Nihal S Thursday, 03 August 2023 04:03 AM
Waste of public money. I hope at least some of them will learn on how to behave in the parliament from this developed nation.
Jeewaka Thursday, 03 August 2023 07:21 AM
Country is bankrupt... Lets have a wild tour while money is available to waste.. At least so called jvp mp harini amarasuriya could stay back.. looks like opportunity to make a buck or waste a buck dosent have any political mismatches.
Winston Rohan Thursday, 03 August 2023 07:48 AM
Boots and all but some cannot even converse a fair sentence in English, just passengers wasting our tax money. Hilarious and utterly annoying.
Bernard Jayatilake Thursday, 03 August 2023 08:09 AM
Who sponsored this wasteful ecercise at the taxpayers money when patients are dying for lack of medicines and wrong cheap medicines administered on them and others are suffering due to high cost-of-living?
Bernard Jayatilake Thursday, 03 August 2023 11:20 AM
To make matters worse, are their spouses also accompanying them as is the usual practice?
Ranil Wickremasinghe Thursday, 03 August 2023 11:27 AM
Country is suffering and women MP are on a holidays. Same like the other women, home is suffering but wife go on holiday.
BuffaloaCitizen Thursday, 03 August 2023 11:28 AM
Like a group of Sinhalese housemaids waiting to take their flight back to Colombo.
Citizen Thursday, 03 August 2023 11:37 AM
Sit back and enjoy their privilege....
Prem Thursday, 03 August 2023 11:59 AM
Harini, you too?
Thushara Thursday, 03 August 2023 12:06 PM
I am not surprised about the rest of the group, but people like Harini's who give advice to others are surprised by the participation by approving such useless trips.
anukdejo Thursday, 03 August 2023 12:46 PM
All these women could easliy replaced by Jacinda Arden
Kumarini Thursday, 03 August 2023 12:55 PM
Shot of a parliament joke.
Sooriyage raju Thursday, 03 August 2023 01:46 PM

Janaka Bandara Thursday, 03 August 2023 01:52 PM
May God save New Zealand from them !!
Pream Madarasinghe Thursday, 03 August 2023 05:53 PM
What a waste of money. If they want to learn they should study the progress made by Vietnam first by using there computers. Despite starting at a worse position compared to Sri Lanka, Vietnam has surpassed Sri Lanka over the past six years.
