Narre Warren North electorate multicultural communities

Belinda WILSON (Narre Warren North) (10:08): I am honoured today to speak about Harmony Week, a week full of culture and diversity, which has been very well celebrated in my electorate. I had the pleasure on Friday evening of attending the Bakhtar Woman of the Year awards. On Saturday night I had the great pleasure of being with many of my colleagues at the Victorian multicultural gala, which was very well attended and very well celebrated by many groups and organisations throughout Victoria. Also the week earlier I attended the Victorian Association for Students from Afghanistan’s extremely beautiful and big celebration gala, held just outside my electorate in the beautiful electorate of Dandenong.

Multiculturalism is alive and well in Victoria. I am so proud to represent the people of Narre Warren North, who celebrate their cultural diversity every single day of the year.
