Remembrance Day
Ms SHING (Eastern Victoria) (09:54) — It was an absolute privilege to attend the Sale Remembrance Day service on the weekend and to pay tribute to the 41 people who lost their lives in the 99 years to date when Remembrance Day services have been occurring. It was really wonderful to see also that the spirit and the sense of community commemoration goes on, with the unveiling of a mural at the Sale RSL sub branch thanks to a joint effort from the state and federal governments. This wall has really lit up the area, and it has become a high point in the acknowledgment of the significant contributions made by men and women from across the area and also the really important role played by the Gunai Kurnai community.
