තායිලන්ත නියෝජ්‍ය අගමැතිනියගේ සංචාරය ගැන විදේශ අමාත්‍යාංශයෙන් නිවේදනයක්

Thai Deputy Prime Minister Suphajee Suthumpun visited Sri Lanka to attend a religious enshrinement event at Mihintale, the Foreign Ministry said. Daily Mirror reported that she joined Buddhist devotees for the ceremony at the Mihindu Maha Seya temple, which involved revealing its pinnacle.

The Ministry described her trip as personal rather than official and said no other government officials travelled with her. It also said Suthumpun had made comparable private journeys to Sri Lanka for religious observances before.

According to the Ministry, the Thai Embassy sought use of the VIP lounge along with other courtesies, and Sri Lankan officials granted the requests. The Ministry’s explanation came after the United National Party called for an account of the visit’s arrangements.

The UNP questioned why the government had not arranged a formal diplomatic reception and adequate security for Suthumpun. Lankadeepa reported that the party characterised the handling of the visit as evidence of an immature foreign policy.
