The Queens Birthday pubic holiday has come and gone, and where we are no supporter of British colonialism and the monarchy as such, it is good to see a significant number of Asian Australians on this year’s Queens Honour Roll, earning a title at the end of their name. Without further elaboration on this, here are the names of Asian Australians on the Honour Roll and where they have contributed – all names are listed in alphabetical order in the various honours.
If we have missed anyone ( as many people are not easy to Google or search online for, please let us know)
