Gong hey fat choi to all our Chinese friends in Australia and overseas. As you know, my wife was born in Hong Kong and we have a beautiful baby daughter called Jasmine. On New Year's Day they dressed up in beautiful red dresses and I actually had a brand new tie on. Can I make a special mention to all the Chinese community and wish them all the best today because today is the business day when they invite friends along who are involved in their business.

I want to pass a very special message to Jasmine's great-grandmother who is 100 years of age. Sadly, she had a fall recently and is in hospital with pneumonia, so all our thoughts and prayers are with her. All her 13 daughters' and sons' and her amazing number of grandchildren's thoughts and prayers are with her.
