Question – Has the official permission of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs been received so far for the “Shi Yan 6” to come to Sri Lanka?
“They asked us for permission to come in October. We told them to come in November. Then they asked again to come at the end of October. But we are still in the same position as before.
