Congratulations to the Federation of Indian Communities Queensland for organising another Diwali celebration in King George Square.
Diwali is the festival of Lights. It celebrates the victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance.
The message is universal in its meaning.
All three levels of government were strongly represented, including the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Premier and Lord Mayor.
Thank you to the President of FICQ, Dr Preethi Suraj (elected for her second term) and her team for putting on such a great event.
Also thank you to Maha Sinnathamby AM, the wonderful patron of FICQ, for his inspiring words and support for the community.
