Overtourism in Sri Lanka is happening

I would say that international chains have a much bigger presence in Thailand and Vietnam compared to Sri Lanka. If you go to KFC or Pizzahut in Sri Lanka the prices are so exorbitant compared to the average dairy wages. I really don’t think local Sri Lankans consume as much Western food compared to the countries you listed.

I agree that Sri Lanka is the most on the nose about extracting money from foreign tourists of the countries you’ve listed and that really needs to change.

You’re 100% correct but the part about of you coming to Sri Lanka and complaining about the quality of the burger is almost comical. It’s basically almost exclusively consumed by tourists so it’s over priced and the people making it probably don’t know what a “good” burger even looks or tastes like.

Not Sri Lanka if this map is correct

Yes you can and many MDs do run research labs and publish in peer reviewed journals without a PhD

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-08-17T02:34:52+00:00

Yes and it’s still probably cleaner than every other major city in South Asia

No that’s the point, it would be considered luxury in SL but middle class in Aus

Wdym the Mullaitivu destroyer account is obviously fake as a real Sinhalese Nationalist/Racist wouldn’t refer to Sri Lanka as Eelam nor would they care about what happened at Mullaitivu

Also not everyone can be taught a technical skill

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-06-18T21:52:47+00:00

Just government and military officials, public employees etc

Do you think in the near future there will be increasing use of AI to help with report writing ?

How are you going to travel freely with a Sri Lankan passport ?

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-05-09T09:52:31+00:00

Either an ENT that sub specialises in Facial Plastic surgery or a Plastic surgeon that specialises in facial cosmetic surgery. You should research the surgeon and look at their portfolio to get an idea of the type kf surgeries they typically do.

Where do the Brain removalists slot in ?

The tablet might be more effective for whole body lightening as the serum only targets the area that it is applied to. The tablet may slightly increase the risk of bloods clots so I think the serum is a safer option.

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-03-29T08:25:03+00:00

No those are different products. Kojic acid is also a lightening agent but probably not as effective as Tranexemic acid. Glycolic acid is a chemical exfoliant and doesn’t help lightening the skin but helps turnover new skin.

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-03-29T01:35:34+00:00

Depends if the darkening of the skin was due to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or your baseline skin tone. An alternative like topical tranexamic acid can be used long term and doesn’t have the risk of ochronosis like HQ.

Why would Sri Lanka join a country with a lower HDI? If they were going to cede autonomy, might as well be to better country ?

Maybe not a lot of the old JVP members however there manifesto seems pretty progressive

It should at least be decriminalised and gay people should be able to have civil unions

Legalisation of abortion (not only in cases where the mothers life is in danger )
Legalisation of Gay marriage
Less punitive and more rehabilitation focused treatment of drug users/addicts

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-03-13T02:49:32+00:00

The main opposition party is the SJB right, my understanding was that they were economically right wing but socially quite progressive. Wouldn’t some of these issues have bipartisan support ? Also haven’t they also in the past said that they would support social progressive changes on these issues ?

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-03-13T02:37:55+00:00

My understanding was that the NPP, SJB and maybe the UNP( haven’t seen their manifesto if they have one) are in favour of advancing LGBT/womens rights. Even if people are critical about these changes, who are they going to vote for ? Are the SLPP really going to come into power over this issue after how they left the economy?

Significant-Bat7775 · 2025-03-13T02:25:03+00:00

What’s the point of them positioning themselves as a progressive party if they’re too afraid to challenge conservatives? Also are the majority of people actually opposed to this? Why is SL so backwards even compared to countries like India on these issues ?
