Many countries have pictures of their head of states in the airport.
It’s pretty fucken useless, no one cares, and it makes the leader look like a dodgy dictator.
At Colombo airport they might do that, but I didn’t see it.
What I saw was much better.
As you come through immigration, the king.
Much better than a picture of some politician.

If only King Kong Kumar would stop whining at pressers… I like the guy. His batting is class. I think being a lawyer is ruining his cricketing persona. Yak Yak Yakkitty Yak..
Nothing better to start a journey into a new place than by being welcomed by the Kings of cricket.
In Chennai you are welcomed by the Jharkhand boy.
Funny, I thought they might have a picture of Srikkanth or N Srinivasan at Chennai airport.
I am wondering if they have a huge pic of James Eggleston at Berlin Schönefeld tehehe
Good to hear you arrived well.
Jayawardene is a much better captain. Sanga simply is arrogant
No pictures of the head of state at the airport; he has a big smile and a moustache – look again. His name adorns the main stand at Galle too. Enjoy Lanka though it is awonderful country.
YEAHHH
Airtel is being very smart.. Given the # of current politicians who played cricket for Sri Lanka, Sanga has a better than even odds to be one too.. So you may be wrong UJ.. It was a politician welcoming you after all
since you are in sl jrod,ask someone ‘joka dalada’ and you’l receive a hug
@Mahek – A pic of Cheeka would lead to t he few tourists landing up in Chennai run away for their lives.
The pic of Srinivasan will lead to insinuation of Brahmin dadagiri being enforced and lead to angry demonstrations.
Enough material to start a flame war. I should stop.
That is a very cool picture.
When I go to Aus for my occasional visits back home, the last thing I’d want to see would be a monster size picture of Punter at the airport. Shit that would be depressing.
