USA Vice President Kamala Harris shows how Indian migrant communities can be front and centre.
The statistics on Australian migrant communities tell a story of change – as Indian Australians take a leading role.
In 1996 here were the leading migrant communities:
England 956,000
New Zealand 312,000
Italy 250,000
Vietnam 158,000
(India was in 12th spot with just 80,000)
In 2020 Indian Australians claimed a leading place:
England 980,000
India 721,000
China 650,000
New Zealand 564,000
It is time for this community-minded group of Indian Australians to be fully represented in our political and other leading dialogues. US Vice President Kamala Harris has shown what can be done.
Right now, Indian Australians are not being heard.
