Love the comment by Shiranthi... "Couture will eat strategy for breakfast" this is what all these economist and policy makers dont understand.. you guys look at the numbers from your AC rooms away from the ground level realities and make policies without thinking about the social reaction to all it.. or rather how to implement these policies together with society without working against society... All the policy making and all this talk is usuless unless you get the people who its going to effect to understand and accept them and leave their island mindset .

Not only are the Russians delivering Pizza, they are running restaurants and airbnb on a cash basis in Unawatuna. First hand experience in December 2023. Highly unlikely they are paying tax of any sort.

Bit of a neo liberal economy love-fest from Fred McMahon and Dr. Tom G. Palmer no? P.S. Construction costs in Sri Lanka are about a 1/4 th of Canada.
