Minister of Megapolis and Western Development, Patali Champika Ranawaka stated that although the Rajapaksa Government invested Rs. 900 billion to develop Hambantota, no economic benefit was reaped by it.

He accordingly said that it was disappointing to see the present government making investments centered on Hambantota too.

He expressed these sentiments upon attending an event in Gampaha yesterday (14).
