Internal Trade Minister Johnston Fernando is to travel to Singapore this morning to participate in a secret discussion about an international racket concerning Sri Lanka. HE has arranged for a secret meeting with former Thai Prime Minister Thakshin Shinawatra.

Illiyas had got Thakshin to secretly visit Sri Lanka on several occasions after he was ousted as the Thai Premier and had organized several secret meetings at the Airport Garden Hotel.

Thakshin Shinawatra had arrived in his private jet at the Katunayake Airport on all those occasions and our website previously reported that he had met with Johnston and one of the chief racketeers in the Colombo Stock market, Asanga Seneviratne.

The main aim of the discussions had been to find a way of investing the former Thai Premier’s ill gotten monies in Sri Lanka.
