The Gallipoli Gazette Vol. 48 No 4 (New Series) SUMMER 2018 THE GALLIPOLI GAZETTE OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE GALLIPOLI MEMORIAL CLUB LTD Armistice Centenary On November 11, one hundred Years since the Armistice which ended the First World War, Australians observe a minute silence at 11am in memory of those who died or suffered in all wars and armed conflict.

  • What It Is to Be Chinese in Australia Today
    Move on, Move on! What it is to be Chinese in Australia today Chek Ling Abstract The Chinese are all right now. On the whole the mainstream population is quite relaxed about the Chinese presence in their midst. That of course was not the case for the 100 years to the end of WWII. And so it should come as no surprise that now and again old scars will resurface. Yet the Chinese have metamorphosed in the psyche of mainstream Australia: honorary whites like Li Cunxin, lionized professionals like Victor Chang, are neon-lit signs of this change. All the same, as a huayi (overseas Chinese) immigrant, my observations over the last 50 years have compelled me to conclude that there is one last gate for the present-day Chinese to walk through, and that it is time for the remaining rearguards of White Australia to consciously remove themselves from that gate. Lambing Flat has lain in my subconscious, ever since I first heard of it some forty years prior. At the time, I would have been hard at it, trying to make a life in Australia, as an engineer, a situation I did not enjoy, having studied engineering by accident and not finding it to my liking after the first week. I had flown into Melbourne, on a Colombo Plan scholarship, a week or two before the lectures started in 1962, from Sarawak, the soon to be abandoned British Colony. Sarawak had been the private fiefdom of three generations of the Brooke family of Great Britain, until the end of the Second World War.

While "Men's Sheds" are commonplace in Australia’s Veteran's society, few, if any, can lay claim to a history going back close to the start of the millennium. One, operated by the RAAF Vietnam Veterans’ Association of WA Inc, can make that claim with the group marking their fifteenth year since coming into being as the "brainchild" of Vietnam Veteran Peter Robinson (right). Peter was with 9 SQN in Vung Tau from April 1969 to Feb 1970. Peter takes up the story: " in early 2001, our old washing machine spat the dummy. I went through the exercise and spent a bucket of money on a new one and almost threw the old one out, thinking, one day I'll get around to fixing that." Peter did fix the machine for the grand sum of $60.00. The next week he picked up three "dead" washing machines from the "council pick up" on the side of the road. He now had another problem: what to do with three washing machines that needed fixing. In no time at all, he had rounded up mates he served with to get together in his garage to fix washing machines. Many of the mates were ex RAAF; tradesmen so they "knew tools". Some of the Vets who heard about the operation on the grapevine and dropped in didn't. This is where Peter's motivation motto kicked in. 'Give a Vet a purpose in life and through that will grow the key elements: friendship, camaraderie and satisfaction." Peter continues, "a tradie and non tradie would team up in 'an on the job training exercise', and when one of the non tradies completed a task and the machine worked, the look on his face was priceless.

  • The Chinese Experience in Australia
    The Chinese Experience in Australia © ASIA Volume 43 Number 2 79 The Chinese Experience in Australia – A Brief Outline for Stages 3– 5 by Di Dunlop dward Hargraves returned to Australia from California in 1851 where he had experienced the Efrenzy of the Gold Rushes in California. He had previously been at Bathurst in New South Wales and believed that the local rock formations resembled what he had seen in California. He spent time panning in Bathurst, and found gold. On 15 May 1851 the discovery was announced and workers flocked to the area to make their fortunes. By August of that year the interest had shifted to Victoria, because Thomas Hiscock had discovered gold on the rich alluvial flats at Ballarat. Both Geelong and Melbourne were almost emptied of men. By the end of the same year news of the discoveries had spread around the world. Hopefuls came from Ireland, Scotland, England and America. By the end of 1853 the decline in income of the alluvial digger caused him to perceive a wider significance in the difference between the equality and mateship of the goldfields, Banner from 1860 and 1861 anti-Chinese rebellion on the Lambing Flat goldfields, now present day Young, NSW.

  • Chinese in the Australian Dictionary of Biography and in Australia1
    Chinese in the Australian Dictionary of Biography and in Australia1 TIPING SU Chinese people and other ethnic groups in the Australian Dictionary of Biography According to Tom Griffiths, chairman of the editorial board of theAustralian Dictionary of Biography (ADB), the dictionary is ‘the largest and most successful cooperative research enterprise in the humanities and social sciences in Australia’, which captures ‘the life and times and culture of this country in an absolutely distinctive and irreplaceable way’.2 Since the first volume was launched in 1966, more than 4,500 authors have contributed just over 13,000 entries. The general editor, Melanie Nolan, has observed that ‘the dictionary has survived the test of time, providing material for others to construct their own images of the “real” Australian or the “typical Australian”’.3 To reflect this ‘real Australian’ ethos, the ADB records the cultural heritage (ethnicity) of subjects. Of the top 10 ethnicities in Australia, as recorded by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, a search on the ADB website (adb.anu.edu.au) found that, as of September 2018, 6,624 subjects were of British heritage (4,841 English, 1,624 Scottish, 159 Welsh), 294 were from New Zealand, 32 were Chinese, 10 were Indian, none were of Philippine or Vietnamese heritage, 88 were Italian, 29 were South African, two were Malayan and 321 were German.4 Thus, people of Asian heritage are clearly under-represented. To illustrate the significance of this omission, or neglect, I will take the Chinese entries as an analytic group, and suggest where improvements could be made.

LONDON EDWAED AKNOLD 1919 IMl rights 'TaserueA] THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO LORD ROBERT CECIL AND THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS PREFACE JOURNALS, in the eyes of their author, usually require an introduction of some kind, which, often, may be conveniently forgotten. The reader is invited to turn to this one if, after persevering through the pages of the diary, he wishes to learn the reason of the abrupt changes and chances of war that befell the writer. They are explained by the fact that his eyesight did not allow him to pass the necessary medical tests. He was able, through some shght skill, to evade these obstacles in the first stage of the war ; later, when England had settled down to routine, they defeated him, as far as the WestfTi Front was concerned. He was fortunately compensated for this disadvantage by a certain knowledge of .the East, that sent him in various capacities to different fronts, often at critical times. It was as an Interpreter that the writer went to France. After a brief imprisonment, it was as an Intelligence Officer that he went to Egypt, the Dardanelles and Mesopotamia.
