The Government should reveal the purpose of Australian billionaire
James Packer’s visit to Sri Lanka, even after he had been told by the
current government that he was not welcome in Sri Lanka, the joint
opposition claimed today.
Opposition MP Weerakumara Dissanayake told a news conference that
they had been informed by reliable sources that Mr. Packer had arrived
in the country yesterday and is currently staying at Hilton Hotel in
Colombo.
“Where are those including Champika Ranawaka, Anura Kumara
Dissanayake and the Jathika Hela Urumaya who spoke against Mr. Packer
during the tenure of the previous government. At that time Mr. Packer’s
activities were carried out openly. But, now Mr. Packer is coming to Sri
Lanka and carrying out his activities in secret. He has launched his
mission in secret. The government must make a statement on this matter
as soon as possible,” Mr. Dissanayake said.
“The government may say that if Mahinda Rajapaksa’s government can bring him into Sri Lanka, why can’t we." (Piyumi Fonseka)
