“It is truly an honour to receive this award. However at the outset, I must emphasize that a CEO can ultimately only be as good as the team of employees behind him.

Commencing his career as a Trainee Assistant Manager in 1983 in JEDB at Diyagama West Estate, Agrapatana, Mr. Rajadurai steadily rose to prominence for his extensive technical knowledge, performance and unwavering commitment to constantly refining his work. He then took over as Manager of KVPL’s flagship property, Pedro Estate, Nuwara Eliya becoming the youngest-ever Manager at Pedro at just 34 years of age.
