Australian Chin Community
Mr HODGETT: Secondly, on another matter, I wish to talk about the wonderful work the Australian Chin Community provides. This community-based not-for-profit charity was established in 2007 and helps to represent and promote the interests of the local Chin community within eastern Melbourne. Located in Croydon, the eastern Melbourne branch supports refugees from Burma, or Myanmar, via Malaysia, India and Thailand. The organisation’s main objectives are to preserve and promote Chin culture and literature, to provide social supports and activities for the Chin community, to look after the social wellbeing of the Chin community and to run regular activities to empower the community. Recently I had the pleasure of attending the 74th Chin National Day on Sunday, 20 February. The event was a wonderful celebration of culture, dance, music, singing, food and fashion held in Main Street, Croydon.
