Anura Kumara Dissanayake, leader of the National People’s Power (NPP), has challenged President Ranil Wickremesinghe, Tourism Minister Harin Fernando, and Minister of Labour and Foreign Employment Manusha Nanayakkara to reveal the expenses incurred during their foreign tours. Speaking at a public meeting in Japan, Dissanayake promised to disclose the expenses of his recent trips within a few days after his visit to Japan concludes.

"I heard someone saying that we have spent Rs. 700 lakhs on our foreign visits. We will disclose all the expenses to the public within a few days after the Japan tour concludes," Dissanayake stated. He highlighted that his expenses were not covered by state funds and urged transparency from the government officials regarding their own expenditures.
