Nothing is impossible with Mr. Rajan Vattakandy. Always willing to go the extra distance and never without a smile. Dedicated, reliable and competent are just a few words to describe this remarkable individual. Rajan is a household name at the Al Bustan Palace Hotel and truly deserves this recognition.

We call him as BUSTAN EXPRESS. Rajan's speed in work and accurancy no one can beat. Even computer fails to catch his speed when typing or telephone dial pad fails to catch the speed of his dialing style some times. We never see he is looking any telephone directory to call any vendor - all are built in his brain. He is having a good name in the market and all respect him due to profesionalism. Stanley

Mr Rajan has devoted his life to his work and arguably it has been his highest priority. There are very few individuals I know, who have resonated with such a strong sense of sincerity, customer focus, initiative, dedication as well as a work ethic which rivals few. Mr Rajan has earned the respect of all his peers, clients/suppliers and sets an example as a role model for them. Mr Rajan is also a philanthropist and dedicates a part of his time/earnings to helping the community and the needy. What more can you ask for if you can find a great human being in an incredible employee. I would recommend Mr Rajan in a heartbeat for this honorable title.

His extraordinary leadership qualities and working ethic is a proof that he is a graet asset to any organization. It?s a privilege to have known Mr Rajan, and congratulate him on this nomination again this year and wish him the very best! Anitha Pai New York, USA
