North Eastern Melbourne Chinese Association

Nathan LAMBERT (Preston) (13:47): I had the chance earlier this month to join the North Eastern Melbourne Chinese Association to commemorate the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese National Day along with Chinese Consul Song Chongsheng. Thank you to George Zeng and the NEMCA team for all the work they do in our community – and a particular shout-out to longstanding NEMCA member Wu Jihua, who told us he could still in fact remember the very first Chinese National Day in 1949. I think he is 90 years young, Mr Wu, and still going strong.
