Recently, I had the privilege of attending the Vegetarian Dinner, organised by the Minh Giac Buddhist Association to raise funds for the construction of the Minh Giac Buddhist Monastery in my electorate of Cabramatta. The Monastery is set to serve as a keystone location for prayers, Dharma talks, meditation, and a spiritual space for personal reflection. It will also stand as a symbol of the enduring heritage of the Vietnamese-Australian Buddhist community in my electorate. The evening was a delightful blend of cultural performances and a delicious array of vegetarian cuisine, all infused with the peaceful Buddhist atmosphere. I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to everyone who has contributed to this fundraising effort. Their generosity and support play an integral role in bringing this important project to life. I thank the Minh Giac Buddhist Association, Senior Venerable Thich Hanh Hieu, Venerable Thich Thong Tue and Mr Quang Minh for their kind invitation. As we look forward to the future impact of the Monastery on our community, I wish for a smooth and successful building process and await the completion of the beautiful Minh Giac Monastery in all its benevolence
