Macedonian community

Natalie SULEYMAN (St Albans – Minister for Veterans, Minister for Small Business and Employment, Minister for Youth) (10:06): On another matter, last Sunday I joined the Macedonian community as they came together for a candlelight vigil. Together we honoured and paid respects to 59 innocent victims of the tragic fire in Kočani, North Macedonia. I want to express my gratitude to Lidija Neskovski and the whole Australian Macedonian community for organising this meaningful event and for their ongoing support for the Macedonian community here in Victoria. May the victims of this horrible disaster rest in peace.
