    MEDIA RELEASE – September 5, 2016 Ex-SAS Amputee on 10,000km Charity Ride to Support Injured Veterans Vietnam veteran Laurie ‘Truck’ Sams left Perth today to cross the Nullarbor on the hardest leg of his 10,000km bike ride from Hanoi to Sydney to raise awareness for post-traumatic stress disorder and veteran suicide. Truck’s determination to complete the epic 10,000km ride was buoyed by the news that former Governor-General Major General Michael Jeffery AC, AO(Mil), CVO, MC (Retd) had agreed to support the 10,000km ride as official patron. “Mike Jeffery’s endorsement is a huge boost because it adds real horsepower to our objective of generating greater community awareness and support,” he said standing on the picturesque South Perth foreshore beside a large van brandishing his Victory over PTSD logo. A former Special Air Service Regiment Warrant Officer who lost his left leg below the knee in a parachute accident in 1995, Truck and his trusty Trek bike have logged 73 days and 5830km since leaving Hanoi on May 12 carrying an Australian flag he wants to hand to the Prime Minister in Canberra on Remembrance Day. “We’ve had to contend with bucketing rain, high winds, and the chaotic roads of Asia in the monsoon season, almost being beheaded by a front-end loader on Route 1 in Vietnam and sliding under an out of control gravel truck in heavy mud further south near Vinh city,” he said. “But the toughest test will be the Nullarbor – it is totally unforgiving of man and machinery and we’ve had to prepare like we’re going into battle.” Riding with Truck on the wheat belt leg will be Fremantle-based former SAS Trooper Mat Jones, 44, who served in East Timor, The Solomons, Afghanistan and Iraq and is now with the WA office of Lockforce Consultancy International, a major sponsor of the six-month charity ride.

  • The Australian Democrats Andrew Bartlett*
    Australian Cultural History Vol. 27, No.2, October 2009, 187-193 The Australian Democrats Andrew Bartlett* The Australian Democrats had maintained a presence in the Senate since 1977, but the 2007 election threatened to end their representation for good. Their efforts to retain seats proved to be in vain. Keywords: 2007 election; Australian Democrats; Senate Following on from the 2004 election, where the Australian Democrats lost four seats (including the Democrat seat Meg Lees had taken with her when she resigned from the party in 2002), plus official parliamentary status and balance of power in the Senate, the Party faced a very difficult task in the 2007 election trying to keep its four remaining Senate seats. Right throughout John Howard's fourth term, opinion polls showed public support for the Democrats consistently scraping along rock bottom levels of 1 or 2 per cent, as they had ever since the Lees resignation and the related public implosion of Natasha Stott Despoja's leadership in 2002. Even though the removal of the Democrats from the balance of power after the 2004 poll led directly to the Coalition government gaining control of the Senate, where it frequently used its majority to stifle scrutiny and bulldoze through some controversial legislation, the Democrats were unable to use this situation to build public support for returning the Party to its traditional Senate watchdog position. The Party had avoided going into debt in its 2004 campaign, so there were sufficient funds to run a basic campaign in priority areas for the 2007 election. However, serious use of paid advertising was not feasible.

  • Sas Resources Fund History 1996-2016
    SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 5 SAS RESOURCES FUND HISTORY 1996-2016 November 2016 SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 6 FOREWORD If there was one single glimmer of light to emerge from the ashes of the 1996 Blackhawk disaster, it would certainly be the creation of the Special Air Service Resources Fund. While the unit was understandably reeling from its worst ever loss, and rightfully focused on rebuilding the short notice Counter Terrorism capability that Australia relies upon it to provide, a selfless group of individuals coalesced, unprompted, and set about creating this amazing institution. In doing so, they reacted swiftly, decisively and generously; and have continued to ever since. The 20 years since the Blackhawk tragedy represents about a “generation” within the Special Air Service Regiment; the unit’s most senior soldiers today were young troopers or lance corporals back in 1996 when the accident occurred. Sadly, during that generation, almost every single member of the unit has experienced the loss of a friend in training or combat. But on each occasion, in the midst of their grief, our men and women have also seen the Fund immediately step into action. As a result, we have witnessed the children of our fallen mates grow up, being cared for by the Fund. No one can replace a lost father or husband but through its financial support and empathy, the Fund provides a backbone of solace in this darkest of situations. By virtue of this fact, every time our soldiers step forward into the breach, they do so confident in the knowledge that should they fall in the service of this country, the Fund has their back, and will continue to take care of that which is most precious to them.

    ABOUT FACE: ASIAN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUSTRALIA Alison Elizabeth Broinowski 12 December 2001 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University ii Statement This thesis is my own work. Preliminary research was undertaken collaboratively with a team of Asian Australians under my co-direction with Dr Russell Trood and Deborah McNamara. They were asked in 1995-96 to collect relevant material, in English and vernacular languages, from the public sphere in their countries of origin. Three monographs based on this work were published in 1998 by the Centre for the Study of Australia Asia Relations at Griffith University and these, together with one unpublished paper, are extensively cited in Part 2. The researchers were Kwak Ki-Sung, Anne T. Nguyen, Ouyang Yu, and Heidi Powson and Lou Miles. Further research was conducted from 2000 at the National Library with a team of Chinese and Japanese linguists from the Australian National University, under an ARC project, ‘Asian Accounts of Australia’, of which Shun Ikeda and I are Chief Investigators. Its preliminary findings are cited in Part 2. Alison Broinowski iii Abstract This thesis considers the ways in which Australia has been publicly represented in ten Asian societies in the twentieth century. It shows how these representations are at odds with Australian opinion leaders’ assertions about being a multicultural society, with their claims about engagement with Asia, and with their understanding of what is ‘typically’ Australian. It reviews the emergence and development of Asian regionalism in the twentieth century, and considers how Occidentalist strategies have come to be used to exclude and marginalise Australia.

Pickering Department of Social Science © Carole Walker, 2001. ABSTRACT Caroline Chisholm Australia Nineteenth century emigration Nineteenth century women's history Philanthropy The purpose of this thesis is to look at the motivations behind the life and work of Caroline Chisholm, nee Jones, 1808-1877, and to ascertain why British historians have chosen to ignore her contribution to the nineteenth century emigration movement, while attending closely to such women as Nightingale for example. The Introduction to the thesis discusses the difficulties of writing a biography of a nineteenth century woman, who lived at the threshold of modernity, from the perspective of the twenty-first century, in the period identified as late modernity or postmodernity. The critical issues of writing a historical biography are explored. Chapter Two continues the debate in relation to the Sources, Methods and Problems that have been met with in writing the thesis. Chapters Three to Seven consider Chisholm's life and work in the more conventional narrative format, detailing where new evidence has been found.

  • Major General Michael
    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL - Thursday, 26 June 2003] p9318b-9319a Hon Kim Chance; Hon Norman Moore MAJOR GENERAL MICHAEL JEFFERY, AC, MC, GOVERNOR GENERAL OF AUSTRALIA Motion HON KIM CHANCE (Agricultural - Leader of the House) [10.25 am]: I move without notice - That this House congratulates and offers its best wishes to Major General Michael Jeffery, AC, MC, a Western Australian and former Governor of Western Australia, on his appointment as Governor General of Australia. I move this motion to provide the House with the opportunity to express its congratulations to a Western Australian, Major General Michael Jeffery, following the recent announcement by the Prime Minister that the former Governor of Western Australia will be appointed to the post of Governor General effective from 11 August this year. I have met, as have other members, with the previous Western Australian Governor on a number of occasions. I have a high regard for this courageous and outspoken individual who has risen to the highest post in the country from his origins in Wiluna, Western Australia. It is testimony to Australia’s tradition of equality that a person from Wiluna, who, after a lifetime contribution and dedication to the interest of his country, can take up the highest post in the land. After receiving his secondary education in Perth, Michael Jeffery went to the Royal Military College, Duntroon at the age of 16. Major General Michael Jeffery went on to have an unblemished record of military service to his country. He served with distinction as a company commander in Vietnam where he was decorated with a Military Cross.
