Vietnamese community

Melina BATH (Eastern Victoria) (09:54): I would like to put on record my sincere thanks to the Australian Vietnamese Women’s Association, in partnership with the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia, for holding a very special event on Phillip Island, at the museum, last Sunday. It was hosted jointly by John Methven OAM, founder of the National Vietnam Veterans Museum, and the delightful Nicky Chung, CEO of AVWA. Many people were there, federal and state MPs. The guest speaker was Sir Peter Cosgrove, commenting on and announcing the bonds forged through adversity to positivity.
