Various - New Consul-General; North Korea; Australia Day

Dear Australians in south China

I am pleased to advise that the new Australian Consul-General to Guangzhou, Mr Sean Kelly, is due to arrive this week. Mr Kelly has an abiding interest in our region as you can see from his biography at: http://www.dfat.gov.au/homs/cngu.html

Do you have dealings with Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (also known as DPRK or North Korea)? If so, then I strongly recommend that you read the information regarding United Nations sanctions at the following weblink (text also copied below): http://www.guangzhou.china.embassy.gov.au/gzho/UNsanctions.html

Best wishes to everyone for Australia Day on 26 January 2007. It is a special day in our Australian calendar. The Australian Chamber of Commerce –South China will be holding an Australia Day celebration in Guangzhou on Saturday 27 January 2007 for the Australian community and friends. More details are available at the following weblink including an RSVP form: http://www.guangzhou.china.embassy.gov.au/
