Kolokotronis inspires Australian people
"Legendary Theodore Kolokotronis inspires us and guide us", said opposition leader Bill Shorten to his message to Diaspora on the occasion of the national day of March, 25.
"Legendary Kolokotronis inspires us not to give up, whatever the difficulties and challenges are", stresses Mr Shorten and continues that Australia is celebrating the anniversary of the Independence of Greek people.
The leader of the Labour party said that millions Greeks act like "Socrates teached" and are citizens of the whole world.
"Greeks are proud of their origins and their cultural heritage, but at the same time 97% of Greeks in Australia nationalized as Australians, because they love their new home and want to participate in their new country"
