ABA’s fifth anniversary in Sydney

Bhutanese in Sydney, Australia celebrated fifth anniversary of their settlement this week with cultural events. Organised by Association of Bhutanese in Australia (ABA) the annual day celebration is part of its efforts to showcase the culture and arts of the Bhutanese community.

To promote multicultural cohesion, a Ethiopian dance team was also invited to perform on the occasion.

Fiona Scott, who was invited as guest of the event, deliberated goodwill message from Prime Minister Tony Abbot and honoured the senior members of the Bhutanese community.

ABA also honoured other local organisations who provided support during the settlement process and the students who secured good ranking in their studies in 2011-12.
