South Sydney Indian Association

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge the continued commitment of Jagrati Lalchandani and the entire team at the South Sydney Indian Association for their commitment to connecting our Indian community here in the St George area. The organisation is known throughout the community for their fantastic celebrations for occasions like Diwali and the birthdays of members as well as their loyal support for their members. Last year I had the opportunity to present the South Sydney Indian Association with a group award as part of the St George Community Awards after they received a record 27 nominations. This highlights the value of this organisation within the community and it was also a privilege to acknowledge their President Jagrati Lalchandani with an individual award for her outstanding service over a number of years. I always enjoy attending their wonderful events and meeting all of their fantastic members and I look forward to continuing this connection in the future. Well done everyone, I wish you all the best for the year ahead.
