Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Tourism and Civil Aviation, Viliame Gavoka, says the founder of the Tanoa Group of Hotels Yanktesh Permal Reddy, fondly known as YP, was truly a man of vision, integrity and spirit, and he has had the privilege of knowing him.

While offering his condolences on behalf of the tourism industry to the Reddy Group and the Reddy family, Gavoka says Reddy was an industry pioneer who in many ways, shaped the industry and the Fijian business community.

The Deputy Prime Minister says today, we remember his life and his achievements.

He adds may his soul rest in peace, and our prayers give strength to the bereaved family.
