  • John-Paul Langbroek, Mp
    Speech by JOHN-PAUL LANGBROEK, MP MEMBER FOR SURFERS PARADISE Hansard 18 March 2004 FIRST SPEECH Mr LANGBROEK (Surfers Paradise—Lib) (4.14 p.m.): I am truly honoured to represent the residents of Surfers Paradise in this House. I am humbled by the support that I have received and their support of the Liberal Party, and I thank the people of the electorate for their confidence. I was chosen to represent the Liberal Party for the Surfers Paradise electorate 12 months before the election. In that time and during the by-election in 2001, I was able to meet many of the people of the area. Many of these people are patients and friends of mine. From the shop owners to the residents in the high-rises and to the families in the suburbs behind the coastal strip, it is a delight to see how far the area has come since I moved back to the Gold Coast 17 years ago. Surfers Paradise is an area that has seen great change and great expansion. Surfers Paradise is an area where people have dared to achieve, and the proof is in the pudding. The region is now a magnet for domestic and overseas tourists to come and see the golden beaches and the glitter strip. Many others are staying here permanently as the suburbs of the central Gold Coast expand, with people escaping southern winters in favour of our warm Queensland sun. Six years ago my community service on the Gold Coast with the Surfers Paradise Chamber of Commerce led me to politics—an ambitious choice, something my fellow members will know all too well.
