Mr. Zhu Rui, Secretary General of the Chinese People’s Association for Peace and Disarmament (CPAPD) who was the architect and driving force behind the visiting tourism and related investment promotion mission from Changzhou, Wuxi and Suzhou in Jiangsu Province gave an assurance in the presence of Hon. Faiszer Mustapha, Deputy Minister of Investment Promotion that there would be a minimum of 30,000 additional tourists in 3 years time. The CPAPD and its Sri Lankan partner organization, the Pathfinder Foundation (PF), collaborated in this venture as a means of giving effect to the implementation of the Cooperation Memorandum signed between the two organizations in July 2012.
