 John MULLAHY (Glen Waverley) (13:14): It was a great pleasure to recently welcome representatives from the Australian Guangdong Chamber of Commerce to my office. For more than two decades the chamber has played an important role, strengthening the bridge between Victoria’s business community and Guangdong province in China. With over 100 member businesses, it continues to foster mutual understanding, investment and opportunity, helping Victorian businesses grow while deepening people-to-people ties that benefit both regions.

My sincere thanks to Christie Zining Guo, Michelle Guo, Jun Shi and Linda Lin for their outstanding work in connecting people and creating opportunities. I look forward to continuing to support their efforts. Victoria and Melbourne should always be destinations of choice for businesses, investment and innovation, and it is the commitment of groups like the Australian Guangdong Chamber of Commerce that makes that possible.
