The Greek Herald Re-Launch Party

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, in February I had the pleasure of attending The Greek Herald's Re-Launch Party, held in the St George area. Now in its 94th year, The Greek Herald is Australia's Largest National newspaper in the Greek Australian community. The paper circulates daily in South Australia, Victoria, Queensland and of course New South Wales. It was great to celebrate 94 years of success for The Greek Herald and hear about their vision for the future. Speaker, multicultural news outlets are crucial in our modern society. They ensure that all Australians have access to current affairs, and that everyone has the opportunity to be an informed citizen. They also allow multicultural Australians to stay up to date with what is happening back home. As well as this, I would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the Greek Community across New South Wales, but particularly in my electorate. The Greek Community are honest and hardworking people, who have contributed so much to our great State. Once again, congratulations to The Greek Herald on the success of their re-launch party!
