Singapore in business ventures with genocidal Sri Lanka...

Shanmugam’s business interest is only a small reflection but the significance is in the modus operandi of the system using a Tamil to do it, the observers said.

Singapore Foreign Minister K. Shanmugam, visiting Colombo with a 21-strong business delegation and saying "Sri Lanka is well placed to capitalize on the benefits and opportunities offered both by Singapore and globally,” envisaged Sri Lanka to increase attracting ‘leisure travelers’ from the current 850,000 to 20 million a year. Singapore increased its Sri Lanka investment from US $ 53 million last year to US $ 428 million. While media is busy in highlighting his Colombo visit and the ‘Buddhist’ visit of Rajapaksa to Thailand, alternative media brought out how Sri Lanka has become a hub for sales of girls for sex industry involving Singapore, Thailand and Arabs. Case of a 16-year-old Tamil girl from Batticaloa was one of them. Tapping genocide-generated business opportunity results from global criminalization of States, observers said.

Speaking along with Shanmugam, while the SL tourism official Vipul Wanigasekara urged Singapore to invest in the ‘hospitality’ sector, SL minister Rishad Bathiudeen who steers many of Colombo’s structural genocide programmes, said that there are several more opportunities available for Singapore businesses, given the advantage of ‘two neighbouring giants’ [India and china] Sri Lanka has agreements with.

A new Memorandum of Understanding for ‘deeper relations’ was signed between Singapore and genocidal Sri Lanka on Tuesday. Full story...
