It was sad to learn about the resignation of New South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian from Parliament today. Ms Berejiklian is facing an ICAC investigation into whether she breached public trust.

In my view, Gladys has been a witness to how much migrants can achieve in Australia.

Born in 1970 as the eldest of daughters to Armenian immigrant parents, Krikor and Arsha. Her grandparents were orphaned by Turkish soldiers in the Armenian genocide in 1915. Ms Berejiklian spoke only Armenian until she was five years old, when she began learning English. She has remained involved in the Armenian-Australian community, serving a term on the Armenian National Committee of Australia.
In 2004, as Australian Human Rights Commissioner, I was privileged to be invited to address the Armenian Community at the anniversary of the Armenian genocide function in North Sydney (my speech is here 2004-04-29 NSW – Genocide Armenia to Rwanda) .

Ms Berejiklian has been a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly since 2003, representing the seat of Willoughby. She assumed office of the Premier on 23 January 2017 and won the 2019 state election. She has led our state through some of its most challenging times, from bushfires to drought, from floods to storms, and a once-in-a-century pandemic – always putting the needs of the people of NSW first.

Thank you Gladys for your decades of dedication and service to NSW. I wish you all the best for the future.

DID YOU KNOW? IN THE TRANSPLANT MARKET, THE CHINESE REGIME IS THE SOLE STATE-SANCTIONED PLAYER WITH A MURDER-FOR-PROFIT INDUSTRY. And now, China may be rewriting medical standards to entice other regimes to follow suit. This was one of many revelations presented at The World Summit on Combating and Preventing Forced Organ Harvesting international webinar, which also disclosed estimates that more than a million have died due to forced organ harvesting.

Countries that follow ethical medical procedures cannot compete: it’s cheaper and faster for patients to get organs in China. This economic reality alone could push other regimes to follow Beijing’s macabre methods.

But the world is also waking up to the CCP’s crimes. A petition campaign in 2018 addressed to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights garnered over 3 million signatures across the globe. This month, over 400,000 viewers attended World Summit live webinar sessions. And now you also have an opportunity to refuse the CCP’s encroachment of our medical ethics by adding your signature to the Universal Declaration on Combating and Preventing Forced Organ Harvesting here.
