Dear Community Members,
Thank you all for making Bangladesh Fair 2019 a great success by attending and showing your encouragement and support throughout the whole day.
The “Bangladesh fair” is the vehicle to bring Bangladeshi culture, heritage, food, products and customs close to our beloved Australia, the country we are living in at the moment. This is especially important for our children who were born and raised up here, so they know their roots. The fair also incorporates Bengali New Year celebrations to remind us some amazing memories.
Organising this fair isn’t an easy task and has taken us nearly three months! Thank you to everyone who worked hard in preparation for it. I would like to extend special thanks to the President of BAAWA, Sabbir Hussain, Convenor and Vice-president Dr. Shahedin Shahid Rajoo, Cultural Secretary Farhana Ali (Shumi) and all EC members, Cultural Subcommittee members, Grants & Sponsorship Subcommittee and sports subcommittee members.
We couldn’t have done it without these people:
