"It was a great honour to be invited to the flag raising ceremony held today to mark Indonesia's Independence Day, at the Victorian/Tasmanian Indonesian Consulate in Queen Road, St Kilda. I was there to receive an award on behalf of the Sumba Eye Program (SEP). Konfir Kabo, our major sponsor was awarded a top award for his work in Foreign Affairs for Indonesia. The rain held out, but it did start drizzling down. This is the first event here since Covid stopped all gatherings in Melbourne."
