\"WANTOK

WANTOK 2012 was a huge success!<\/p><\/div>\n

With only 2 weeks to this year’s WANTOK 2013 Australian South Sea Islanders National Forum<\/strong>, the ASSI-PJ would like to extend an invitation for all ASSIs to attend and to get involved in this historic event.<\/p>\n

This year’s event will be extra special for two reasons… firstly because 2013 marks the 150th anniversary of the arrival of the first South Sea Islanders to Queensland in 1863.<\/p>\n

This important milestone highlights Australian South Sea Islanders’ unique history and important contribution to Australia and Queensland in the development of the sugar industry and as sports people, artists, soldiers, civic leaders and most importantly, citizens.<\/p>\n

Secondly, on this occasion Australian South Sea Islanders from all around Australia will gather to elect their first national governing bodies – a permanent National ASSI secretariat and a secretariat board of directors to represent the interests of all Australian South Sea Islanders.<\/p>\n

So if you want to get involved and to have your say, register now to attend this year’s WANTOK 2013<\/strong> National Forum.<\/p>\n
