New Chinese Australian War Memorial to be completed by Remembrance day

Here's the winning design for the "Australian Service Personnel of Chinese Heritage War Memorial" to be built in Sunnybank, Queensland.  The member for Moreton ran a competition for the design and this entry was chosen amongst 50 entries.  I hope it looks better when it is built.

Phil Lep who is representing RSL Sunnybank (Sub Branch) and Ralph Seeto who is representing the Chinese Community did the First Sod.

To mark the occasion, Melody Chen, President of World Arts & Multi- Culture donated $500.00 and Peter Kao, Honorary Member of Lions Club of Brisbane Chinese donated $1,000.00 towards the construction of the War Memorial project.

I'll try to get in contact with Phil to see if he can give me some info about himself and other Chinese Australians from his area who served Australia.
