Dear Brother Emeka, On behalf of the entire Sri Lankan community, we sincerely apologize for the unacceptable behavior of a few individuals. We value and welcome all visitors to our beautiful country with open arms and genuine hospitality. Rest assured that appropriate actions will be taken to address this matter. We encourage you and all travelers to continue visiting our land and experiencing its many wonders. Your presence and appreciation for our culture and heritage are highly valued. Thank you for your understanding and support. Sincerely, A SRILANKAN
Brother, this mad vendor is already being arrested, necessary actions will be taken to make sure they are given a proper lesson to treat a person right, may it be a foreigner or even a local, he has no right to be disrespectful. Pls accept our apologies and we are so grateful promoting our beautiful country to the world❤
He just want to say "hay it's 1900LKR for you, take it or leave it, I'm the owner, I'm the one who decide prices here". He didn't mean to un-welcome anybody. Leave means "leave it" leave the offer.
There are racists everywhere but for the most part people are wonderful and kind . Be a child of God let go and forgive never let bad behavior harden your heart ❤️🙌❤️🔥

I feel bad for Emeka, I can tell he is a strong brother, but I'm sure it hurts a bit being treated in such a manner, that breaks my heart, that such a loving brother has to get such treatment, and he is just trying to show your country to the world in a positive light. God bless you Emeka Iwueze, may the world show your good heart kindness back.
YES BRO IAM WATCHING FROM EAST AFRICA HOPE MINISTRY OF TOURISM AND SYRI LANKA POLICE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT GUY ALSO THE OLD MAN NEXT DOOR HIM WHO WAS SAYING BYE BYE GO GO THEY WERE DISCUSTING ALSO WE EAST-AFRICAN MUSLINS DONT LIKE HIM USING ALLAHA'S NAME AND BEHAVING LIKE THIS

@@JesusSavesTheLostBrokenConfuse Please don't tag an ethnicity, religion, race etc into this kind of issues. See him as a "SRI LANKAN street food seller" doing his businesses in the Aluthkade area. There may be thousand of people of this nature in this country brother.
Really sorry about the bad experience. That guy will pay for what he did. You were smart in assuming that you were getting scammed there. Hope you won't encounter anymore bad and sad situations like that in Sri Lanka. You just met some piece of shit, but trust me, this country is full of welcoming and hospitable people.
Indeed, Maniyo! Sri Lanka's hospo scene's lit, but these cats? They're straight up ruining it. These high attitude scamming mf's should be in prison. Can't shake off the disgust they bring And dropping God's name while cheating? That's just foul bruh!
A nice smile and attitude can be contagious in good ways and in bad ways for some. It's obvious that guy had some serious issues going on that he has to deal with or is dealing with. UNFORTUNATELY he felt the need to involve you, but I'm glad you didnt take the bait and decided to walk off. He will DEFINITELY give in account for his actions, in one way or another🤔. May You Stay Safe and Blessed 🙏🏽

That dude has been arrested!! Justice served for Emeka!! Well done Sri Lankans for sharing and pointing out such issues to the relevant authorities! We can’t let these unacceptable doings for the foreigners as well as for the locals. Good Job my fellow Lankans ❤️🇱🇰
I am from Sri Lanka. I apologize for the situation.. He was arrested by Sri Lankan law. This video of yours has become popular all over Sri Lanka 🇱🇰❤️🔥🙏
We are glad to see that Sri Lankan Government took immediate action against this. Also every tourist should never hesitate to report any unpleasant situation to Sri Lankan Police or Tourism Board in Sri Lanka any time.
@docall18 Yes, that is true, but the price and customer service should be the same for everyone, especially when it comes to tourists. You want them to feel safe and comfortable, not like they're being scammed. A simple written-down price list that could be pointed to would have accomplished this, or even just explaining with patience and understanding to your foreign customers who don't speak the language would have been enough. Every country benefits from tourism, and with poor customer service and unpleasant experiences, it hurts the business and, in some cases, the country.
@@docall18haha yes muslim. He can charge whatever he wants but can not act like a thug.😡it is not his private road😂😂😂 also price should be displayed. How can an uneducated 3rd class muslim thug yelling to an tourist to get out? 😮😮😮😮
I can tell he's a seasoned traveller. Didnt let one negative experience ruin his evening, he just went straight next door and had fun buying ice cream!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
As a Sri Lankan, I apologize for what happened, my brother. I hereby inform you that legal action has been taken against the bad person who treated you badly. Sorry again you are a very kind person ❤️
Im going to Sri Lanka in a few months, what is the location of the store and the name of the owner? I'd like to pay him a visit with my 9 other black friends as we are touring through Sri Lanka. We will make sure to pay this guy a visit.
The whole of Sri Lanka is really sorry for the way this rogue trader is treating you. This news was broadcasted as a major news on our main channels and requested to arrest this fake seller and make peace with you. Now he has been found by the police and he will surely get severe punishment. Don't doubt our hospitality because of the activities of a few people like this.Don't forget that the Sri Lankan nation is one of the friendliest nations in the world. We are all saddened by this incident. We apologize a thousand times.
Hello I’m from Sri Lanka. I’m really sorry for this experience . I hope you don’t misunderstand eveyone is not same . There are some people don’t educated and don’t know how to respect a person I’m really sorry for this . As a Sri Lankan . I’m really sad about this . I hope you one day again will visit us . ❤
yea, there r many ppl who try to take advantage of tourists. But ive also seen many times where locals would acc be more hospitable towards tourists, representing their country in a good way. This also can be racism cuz esp as a South Asian myself i know how racist my ppl can be, its so stupid and disgusting!
Sri Lanka Tourism Board open a court case and police has arrested the person. Finally he has been charged 50000 Rupees and Rs.1 million personal bond by the court. No mercy for these kind of behaviors in Sri Lanka. Thanks for your video.
We are US Citizens too but born and raised in Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan people are very honest and the hospitality is second to none. Sorry this happened to you. Hope to see more visitors from USA
Treating a tourist with that manner. I'm happy that he was arrested by the police. It's so nice to know that many Sri Lankans are asking forgiveness on behalf of that guy's ill treatment. God bless Sri Lanka and the people of Sri Lanka.
You did nothing wrong. Perfect gentleman 👍 All you did was demonstrate your wits about you. My hackles were raised by the way he approached you and hustled you into ordering food.
I'm from India, and I personally have many Sri Lankan friends. My flatmates were Sri Lankans. Such down to earth people and super friendly too. This was probably a one of a kind situation
Yeah it’s rare and can happen anywhere. I lived in Turkey for some time and everyone was wonderful, but came across one person that tried to sell me a small slice of cake for 15 euros. Just research general prices and know when to walk away.
Certainly, this is a random situation probably happen in anywhere. peoples are vairy, we wish it have goes away these kind of people in whole world.We are sorry for the scandal made by that stupid. Thanks Indian, for your understanding.
To JOhn Frias 67, I believe you. Being Black British in Brooklyn, with an all-England accent, is like they are growing horns. We're weird to Americans.
So happy to inform you that the guy who hassled you was taken into custody and court action was taken against him. We Sri Lankans are world renowned for our hospitality and this incident is totally unacceptable to us. That guy shamed the name of all Sri Lankans. We simply don't tolerate that and if you saw the comments from the fellow Sri Lankans you see that is a common stance that we all take. We all have a sense of responsibility collectively as a nation towards our guests and we treat our guests like no other. The uniqueness of Sri Lankans is that for themselves they don't have much but any one of them would gladly share what they have with guests with open arms and open hearts. Your happiness makes us happy.
@@zerdo4725 He was arrested though. Google "Street food vendor arrested for price-gouging & verbally harassing a foreigner" and you'll find a link and video about his arrest.
I am from Africa. Sri Lanka is a good country and good people. My country share good and healthy relationship. Don't be surprised if you see one bad person every country have people like him.
As a Sri Lankan, I am telling you 100% absolutely you were not wrong. You were smart enough to identify a scam immediately. He was guilty and that is the reason he yelled at you. You be as yourself and enjoy Sri Lanka.
@@thecardtrickstudent3870 Not sure why people are missing this crucial comment - All this noise is nonsense, @kellyjesse1122 you should watch the video again! @emeka - you might have missed it but he said he can not lie in front of his god, Allah. So all of this is just click bait, how could be possibly be wrong?
@tonyantonio8956yea but he said his god would t allow him to cheat so all you people are wrong - this man follows Allah which means he in not capable of cheating!!! HE JUST TOLD YOU THAT
Reading these comments and I am blown away by the goodness and integrity of the Sri Lankan people, I have to visit there. I am looking forward to experiencing this lovely country and culture ❤
Sri Lanka is a majority budhist country! We totally reject that rogues religious sh…story! Luckily such people are very rare in SL! You should go to out back of Sri Lanka , not this highly urbanized and polluted habour area in Colombo to see real Sri Lanka!

It wasn’t that serious, we tourists know we are being overcharged, but that was obvious. That was bad for other vendors, we only want to help your economy with fair trade.
Bro I can't even with this 😂 So my man, the foreigner got low key ambushed while he was having BBQ by none other than our science teacher who by the way teaches at one of the top schools in Sri Lanka! And it was funny AF when he started pulling his son into the convo, all serious like 'He looks just like you!' Bruh I was DONE 😂 That had me cracking up all day because get this, his son was my classmate too and when the foreigner hit him with the 'Will Smith' line after that, I legit lost it 💀 The whole interaction was gold... big ups to Mr. Science Teacher for the laughs, you really blessed us with some entertainment today! Thanks for the smiles, sir! 😂👌 Love you always ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow. This guy gave 1000 rupees for an ice cream that costs 500 and said, 'I don't need change.' ❤️ What a lovely person. Also, the seller deserves this because of his honesty
Dear sir.. As a Sri lankan I 'm so sorry about the incident you faced.That is not the way of a Sri Lankan. You are warmly welcome to my country anytime. Not all people are same..hope you will understand..Thank you very much for visiting..Love you ❤

As a fellow Sri Lankan, I would like to apologise to you for what you had gone through. You really gained a lot of respect and showed everyone how to handle a difficult situation.

That businessman was scolding ugly like a drop of dung was thrown into a chicken... Well, negative businessmen like this should publicly apologize to this foreigner... From the 17th minute there is the part that is being blamed..... the Turkish ice cream was there on time... because of that man, the foreigner must have been relieved.

i dont think the shop owner did anything wrong, the moment he said the price 1900 this wanted to verify the price with his staff. Rs. 1900 is a normal price of a kottu so why he has to verify that..
HEY SRI LANKANS!!!! We gotta stop those scammers, they're messing up tourism in our country. Sri Lankans are known for treating guests right, but these crooks are ruining it for everyone. Let's spread this video far and wide until it blows up, and the cops crack down on those mobsters in Aluthkade. Hey Iwueze, we are sorry for what happened to you.
Yes I am doing my best to spread this news all over because that poor boy was so embarrassed regards to this incidents. Also Ranil should invite this boy and make sure that he make this boy happy again. He is just arrived 24 hours ago and you guys treated him using Allah for this guy and Buddhas for another guy in kaluthara.

@@destamcghie632 being upset doesn't mean you look mad or throw a tantrum. He's visibly disturbed and confused by what was happening, as anyone would be. All props to the op!
I’m srilankan, I got scammed in Kandy temple. The flower sellers thought I was an Indian or Pakistani, and started saying in Sinhala to increase the price. When I asked them in proper Sinhala, why do you want to increase the price, the man was shocked. Srilanka is a great place, and people are very welcoming and nice. However, you also get idiots like this who ruin the image of it by trying to scam tourists. Glad you exposed this! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks. I will NEVER go there. This was my first impression. Yet after reading comments including the swift action by the government of Sri Lanka. I am more than pleased and proud of you Sri Lankans for being so kind and understanding. I will love to visit.
You didn’t do anything wrong. I’m watching you for the first time. You’re so friendly and polite. The guy is hyper sensitive and ready to fight at anytime, kind of person. You handled the situation pretty nice. Well done 👍

The look of disgust on that man’s face was so evil and to use Allah’s name, was sick! 😟 Emeka handled it like such a champ!! He seems to be a pure hearted soul. Love that. This is my first time on his channel and seeing all of these beautiful comments from Sri Lankans is so awesome to see!! Now I want to visit Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 😍 The food looks absolutely amazing also. Sending love to Sri Lanka from the USA.
Going over some of the comments, I just proud of the Sri Lankans. There are few bad ones in every country but standing up and condemning bad behavior is a blessing. I hope to visit this land of great people one day.
Good on you for exposing them and their scam and for remaining so calm throughout that as well. Awesome that you kept on walking and enjoyed some ice cream within view of him so he could watch you spend the money that would have been his and see you enjoying yourself for a fun Turkish ice cream experience.
I have met, worked, schooled and befriended people from Sri Lanka here in the UK for the past 13 years and I can say they are lovely people. Very respectful, friendly, and kind, Years ago when I first got into the UK as an International student. I have a lot of Sri Lankans in my class they were very kind and nice, always ready to share their lunch and everything.

We are glad to see that Sri Lankan Government took immediate action against this. Also every tourist should never hesitate to report any unpleasant situation to Sri Lankan Police or Tourism Board in Sri Lanka any time.
Its his shop he can charge what he wants.
@docall18 Yes, that is true, but the price and customer service should be the same for everyone, especially when it comes to tourists. You want them to feel safe and comfortable, not like they're being scammed. A simple written-down price list that could be pointed to would have accomplished this, or even just explaining with patience and understanding to your foreign customers who don't speak the language would have been enough. Every country benefits from tourism, and with poor customer service and unpleasant experiences, it hurts the business and, in some cases, the country.
@@docall18 Thats what your mom tells them when she's waiting in the corner picking up men
@@docall18haha yes muslim. He can charge whatever he wants but can not act like a thug.😡it is not his private road😂😂😂 also price should be displayed. How can an uneducated 3rd class muslim thug yelling to an tourist to get out? 😮😮😮😮
I always visit Sri Lanka and when I buy and see the man is honest I give him more than the value of the thing I buy
Liar..i think you are the man 😅. Repulsive cheat.
I can tell he's a seasoned traveller. Didnt let one negative experience ruin his evening, he just went straight next door and had fun buying ice cream!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
As a Sri Lankan, I apologize for what happened, my brother. I hereby inform you that legal action has been taken against the bad person who treated you badly. Sorry again you are a very kind person ❤️
Im going to Sri Lanka in a few months, what is the location of the store and the name of the owner? I'd like to pay him a visit with my 9 other black friends as we are touring through Sri Lanka. We will make sure to pay this guy a visit.

Sri Lankan people are very kind. So can’t believe this. Sri Lanka Ministry of tourism take action for this.
The whole of Sri Lanka is really sorry for the way this rogue trader is treating you. This news was broadcasted as a major news on our main channels and requested to arrest this fake seller and make peace with you. Now he has been found by the police and he will surely get severe punishment. Don't doubt our hospitality because of the activities of a few people like this.Don't forget that the Sri Lankan nation is one of the friendliest nations in the world. We are all saddened by this incident. We apologize a thousand times.

Food was like 3 dollars dude trying to be so cheap
Sri Lanka Tourism Board open a court case and police has arrested the person. Finally he has been charged 50000 Rupees and Rs.1 million personal bond by the court. No mercy for these kind of behaviors in Sri Lanka. Thanks for your video.

Yeah it’s rare and can happen anywhere. I lived in Turkey for some time and everyone was wonderful, but came across one person that tried to sell me a small slice of cake for 15 euros. Just research general prices and know when to walk away.

Here is Sri Lanka there is a separate police for tourists. Plz make a complain.
The Sri Lanka Police arrested him
yes bro the seller has already arrested by the police today morning
So happy to inform you that the guy who hassled you was taken into custody and court action was taken against him. We Sri Lankans are world renowned for our hospitality and this incident is totally unacceptable to us. That guy shamed the name of all Sri Lankans. We simply don't tolerate that and if you saw the comments from the fellow Sri Lankans you see that is a common stance that we all take. We all have a sense of responsibility collectively as a nation towards our guests and we treat our guests like no other. The uniqueness of Sri Lankans is that for themselves they don't have much but any one of them would gladly share what they have with guests with open arms and open hearts. Your happiness makes us happy.

@@selinabrooks3629 how do you know about sri lankan?you don't know anything
🥰🤗🤗🤗
Ya you are right 🥰🤗
I had similar experiences while in Sri Lanka. But most of the Sri Lankans i met were nice and honest. I plan to revisit soon. Dont let this experience ruin the trip. Enjoy Sri Lanka bro 🙌🏾
Are you saying that you faced this experience in Sri Lanka because you are a black man? 🤔
@@HarshDG no, because im a tourist and they saw it as a opportunity to make a little extra money by increasing the price.
@@HarshDGare you implying that the person in this vid faced this because he is a black man? No one said anything about that
@@AaronTheGreat2023bro bother white & black people are facing such issues. Theres another channel a white man put his bad experience there. It happens to foreign tourists. That's it bruh. They'll just charging high.
@@AaronTheGreat2023 See some comments..People who don't know Sri Lanka well have misunderstood it as a country that treats black tourists racially. It seems that some black people feel insecure about themselves because of this incident..
I must admit, I don't see everything, but one thing is certain-our government will take notice. You've become a sensation not only on social media but also on local news channels. By the way, I'm your new subscriber! May all be fair, and blessings come your way. You're simply seeking clarity, and there’s nothing wrong in that. As a fellow Sri Lankan, I want to apologize for the difficulties you've faced.
U seem like a good hang, pure and genuine, don’t let them taint you bro. 🤙
As a Sri Lankan I'm truly sorry for what happened to you bro. Majority of the Sri Lnakan people are friendly and their hospitality is really nice. There are a few who doesn't have manners, just ignore them. Have an amazing time.

I am a young man from Sri Lanka,
our country is really famous among foreign countries as a beautiful country in terms of friendship.
I really saw a beautiful loving friendship in you my friend.
We are truly sorry if we have hurt your feelings for any reason.
, I am thankful from the bottom of my heart that there are friendly and loving people like you living in this small country.
🤝..
I totally agree with you ! It’s very sad to witness this scamming behaviour of this person ! But generally it’s not the case everywhere in Srilanka , unfortunately it has been happening in capital city and some towns but I’m glad that this will make more awareness ! Despite the civil war , we all are very genuine and friendly people!
