Can’t wait to get back to Australia tonight to ‘harvest’ some local pies!
The Bruthen Bakery is a great place to stop and grab a bite to eat during your travels these Christmas holidays. It’s also the perfect place for a coffee break and I can personally vouch for the pies at the bakery.
Bruthen is booming as a great spot to take a break in your drive to other destinations in East Gippsland or to check out the local sights.
Let’s make it a Great Gippsland Christmas and support local businesses! #lovegippsland

Thanks to Sue from SNJ Kitchens for sending in a picture of her store to join the Great Gippsland Christmas campaign. SNJ Kitchens in Morwell stocks a wide range of gifts, homewares and cake decorating supplies.
Remember, shopping locally creates local jobs!

Honoured to represent the Federal Government and officially open the redeveloped Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre in Thailand.
It’s where we tell the story of 60,000 Allied POWs who were subjected to starvation, diseases and unthinkable brutality as they were forced to work on the Burma-Thailand Railway in World War Two.
Tragically, 2800 Australians never made it home to the country they loved, and the country that loved them in return.
The new interpretive centre and memorial walkway to Hellfire Pass is immaculately cared for by local Thai employees who guide 160,000 visitors per year and maintain the gardens and surrounding environment. I thanked them personally for their efforts.
A great collaboration between the Australian Government and the Kingdom of Thailand to make sure their service is always remembered.
Lest we forget.
