Responding to social media reports criticizing the presence of top NPP members at the ABBA Tribute Show, the Mount Lavinia Hotel clarified that the dignitaries were invited guests at the concert.
The attendance of Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya, Foreign Affairs Minister Vijitha Herath and Tilvin Silva made headlines as social media reports alleged that they had spent thousands of taxpayers’ money to attend the concert.
In a statement, the hotel emphasised, “As a tourism-related event, we extended invitations to several dignitaries, including Honourable Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Tourism Vijitha Herath, in recognition of their roles in supporting the industry.â€Â
The hotel further expressed pride in hosting the ABBA Show as part of its mission to bolster tourism and enhance Sri Lanka’s appeal to both local and international travellers.
