Minister Rajitha Senaratne stated that the reason as to why the Mattala Airport is being given to India, while the Hambantota port is given to China, is to balance out a possible diplomatic conflict.
He also said that, while the decision to build the Hambantota port and the Mattala Airport was a correct one, the problem lies within the fact that they were built without a proper plan.
He further says that, Rs 26,500 million had been used to built the Mattala Airport and Mattala would receive flights had a free trade zone was also built parallel to it.
