Tourism and hospitality industry stakeholders are scheduled to stage a protest against the economic and political crisis on Tuesday at 3.30 pm outside the Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau (SLTPB) office in Colombo.
In a hastag #savesrilankasavetourism, multiple stakeholders in the industry are expected to congregate outside the SLTPB office demanding solutions to many issues and also campaigning for the removal of the current SLTPB chairperson Kirmali Fernando who has been having many issues with various stakeholders. The protest has been called by various tourism associations.
