Proposes International Airport ? Good Idea, Buy WHY ? WHY do We Need a Second International Airport ? Why Not invest that money to Expand the
current Katunayaka and Rathmalana Airports. dose this mean the passangers who travel need to go all the way to Hambanthota airport to get a plane ?
professionals see the Hambantota airport as a wasteful political gimmick rather than a well-considered infrastructure project.
Instead of wasting $200 million on a new airport, the government should upgrade the Instrument Landing System (ILS) at Katunayake, develop and refurbish existing airfields and install proper navigational facilities. Upgrading existing airfields at Ratmalana, Weerawila, Jaffna and Trincomalee to regional airports will serve both the people and the tourism industry. An airport must have support infrastructure: roads, hotels and services. Just because Hambantota has a port does not mean that people will fly there. After all, this is one of the poorest regions of Sri Lanka with the lowest per capita income
inversing that money on building village roads, hospitals etc. will be more benificial to the country
Hambanthota Hurbour ? Good Idea ! But Why ? Why do you need a Hambanthota Hurbour ? why cant you expand the Trincomalee hurbour insterd ?
Why Do you need a Commonwealth game in Hambanthota in 2018, when the present government or the president will be not there in power ?
why in a hot dusty area when forign athletics will feel the pain of heat !!
WHY WHY WHY ?
The Asnwer is , They also need a future.
