9th Korean Australian Young Professionals' Cocktails for Charity

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I recently attended a Korean Australian Young Professionals' Cocktails for Charity event, hosted by the Korean Australian Lawyers Association. Now in its 9th year, the annual event brings together Korean-Australian young professionals for an evening of networking and raising money for a good cause. It was an incredibly insightful evening that supported the great work of Kindred, who are an amazing organisation supporting families of children with developmental delays and disabilities. I must say, as Shadow Minister for Multiculturalism, I always enjoy attending events like this that strengthen our community ties. It is fantastic to see our Korean-Australian community grow and thrive. I would like to thank National President of the Korean Australian Lawyers Association, Kenneth Hong, and his team for hosting me and my Parliamentary colleagues, as well as all the sponsors, and attendees who showed up in support of Kindred. I would also like to recognise and thank Kindred for their meaningful contribution to our community. I look forward to fostering this growing relationship with the Korean Australian community and wish them all the best in their future endeavours.
