People’s Republic of China anniversary
Eden FOSTER (Mulgrave) (13:24): It was a pleasure to attend the celebration of the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the 54th anniversary of Australia–China diplomatic relations. Hosted by Mr An Son Hong, the leader of the Australian Chinese community in Victoria and national chairman of the National Council of Australian Federal Chinese Associations from Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, it was a wonderful celebration of the culture, tradition and strong friendship. The Allan Labor government has invested more than $2 million through the Chinese Community Infrastructure Fund to help Chinese community organisations upgrade the places where people come together.
