The Hon. (Ms.) Lakmali Hemachandra, Attorney-at-Law
Lakmali Hemachandra asked the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Employment and Tourism for details on Sri Lankan workers sent to Korea, including the number of visas issued, the basis for sending workers under the E8 visa category, and how many workers had been sent. She also sought clarification on whether any of them were in distress and what action would be taken, and asked whether workers are sent only under E8 visas or under other visa categories as well.
