About the R S P Holdings Pvt. Ltd., Australia and Sri Lanka
The RSP Holdings nucleus group, per se, comprising NINE TECHNOLOGIES, KING'S TEA AND WASTU GEMS
respectively, established back in the mid 1990's needed some catalyst to move up into their next level of growth and it was
with this objective in mind that RSP Holdings was established in 2004 to add that impetus which has since proved its worth
in many ways, giving direction and motivation for growth as well as diversification. That catalyst led to the establishment
of its Australian arm under the name of RSP Holdings (Australia) Pvt. Ltd out of which grew subsidiary companies such as
Infiso, Wastu gems, Ravsfm.com and the SRI LANKA DIRECTORY, AUSTRALIA.
Infiso (formerly, Infinity Tech Solutions): - www.infiso.com.au provides a wide range of IT solutions for Australian
companies including website designing/development, web hosting and domain registrations.
Wasthu Gems (www.wasthu.com) by its very presence has since its establishment in Australia in 2006 added that much
more value to the famed range of Sri Lankan Gems in Australia. Rigid quality standards which guarantee consonance to the
highest international standards ensure a wide spectrum of buyers who are consistently attracted by the lure and lustre of
classical Sri semi-precious and precious stones.
Ravsfm.com (www.Ravsfm.com) is the first ever web radio to be launched by Sri Lankans domiciled in Australia and has
already ensconced itself as a firm favourite in the multi-ethnic Sri Lankan community that is spread out over the entire
Australian landscape. The radio covers any and everything to do with events, achievements etc relating to Sri Lankans in
Australia. Our advice is that anyone wanting to know anything about the Sri Lankan community in Australia would do well
to log into this web radio. Anyone wanting to contribute anything by way of news and pics pertaining to Sri Lankan in

SLD, Australia to Precious Hands
SLD is the first of its kind that covers every
single state and territory in Australia, and in
the sense of it being a community directory
too it's also the
avant-garde so to say in the category of data
literature among over 160 communities in
the vast social mosaic of Australia. The
Directory was launched at Temple Trees, the
official residence of the President of Sri
Lanka, when Mr.Ravindra Sri
Panditharathne, the founding
Publisher/Editor of the Directory handed
over a copy of the first issue to H.E the
President of Sri Lanka, Mahinda Rajapaksa,
on 23rd March 2010. The chief objective of
the Directory is to serve as a motivator for
growth of the growing number of Sri Lankan
businesses across Australia via appropriate
information fed to that sector through print,
web and mobile media.
Motto:- Empowering Sri Lankan Entrepreneurship in Australia
