… First of all I would like to thank you for the initiative of honouring Africans for serving their own communities. I think it is a great motivation to all those that have offered their precious time and resources to support African individuals and communities. It is an extremely stressful task but I have no doubt that I have [faith in] African women and men in Australia dedicated to the good of their own people as they struggle to make Australia their new home. Your initiative is a moving and touching innovation that Africans have ever thought of in this country. It is a strong motivating factor especially to those that have dedicated their lives for the good of Africans in Australia. It will have far reaching impact today and in many generations to come. …

Africa is changing. It is not the 3rd world any more. It is not a black continent any more. It is a continent with intelligent and vibrant human beings.
New generations that recognise, respect and praise each other are coming. This is particularly what African Australians need.
Thank you for initiating the first steps and being the front runners of it.
Keep up you good work!!!
