“The tourism sector has been hit hard by COVID-19, with international travel into the country slowing down in January and February, even before our airports closed for international arrivals,” Advocata Institute said.
“As the tourism sector is also the country’s third-largest source of foreign exchange, the impact of this downturn will be felt throughout the economy.”
The discussion will feature Kimarli Fernando (Chairperson, Sri Lanka Tourism), Vipula Gunatilleka (CEO, SriLankan Airlines), Sanath Ukwatte (Chairman, Sri Lanka Hotel Association), Mahen Kariyawasam (President, Sri Lanka Inbound Travel Operators).
