Australian Cricket Captain Micheal Clarke has signed up as Education Ambassador for Crown Sri Lanka, a million dollar casino investment in Colombo by Aussie gaming mogul James Packer.
Clarke will work closely with training aspects of the proposed project, newspaper the West Australia said.
In a video released promoting the project, Clarke said “I look forward to providing a helping hand to support and mentor young people in all parts of the country to ensure Sri Lankans get the training they deserve and an opportunity for a career in hospitality.”
Clarke is already under increasing pressure by lobby groups not to be part of the 400 million dollar Packer project.

I suppose a publicly available impact study needs to be done prior to allowing casinos to proliferate in Sri Lanka despite its potential for government income. Gambling destroys lives and families, as clearly evident in Australia, for example.
The social welfare safety-nets in place in developed countries do not exist in Sri Lanka and hence individual addiction often results in a domino effect and can destroy the entire future of children dependent on their parents for economic sustenance.

Michael Clarke, the Education Ambassador, is a lucky man. He is coming to the right place at the right time. We have the right human resources for him. Why, Malaka, son of Kudu Mervin, has already announced a career in education that he will take over as Minister in due time. He will fit in like a glove for Michael’s challenging task. Besides, the family has years of experience in the business for the Crown empire. Dad and son are already known in Ecstatic circles – that they dominate. Both have valuable experience in the flesh trade as well – so vital to the Casino industry. Dad also has the right State-assisted troops to take care of opposition – whenever that shows up. The other day, Dad got support from the Defence guys to organise a bogus prison riot at Welikade which was, in fact, a carefully planned operation to get rid of all the foot soldiers of the OTHER side. The operation went off smoothly and to great precision leaving Dad the undisputed leader of the drug traffic trade – that is until the next gun duel between Kudu Mervin and Duminda – the Monitor.
Michael, your stars in the right position. You really are gonna step into the Miracle of Asia. James may have failed in China and Las Vegas.
But he will recoup all his losses here – what with tax holidays for 20 years and much more lollies. You Aussies down under sure know where the loot is.
