Aboriginal Elder, Uncle Larry Walsh, a Taunwurrung man of the Kulin Nation, welcomed guests to the launch of the West Papua office in Docklands on 14 June 2014. Uncle Larry was one of a number of prominent speakers at the celebratory launch in the five-star-energy building. His main message to the West Papuans: “We need you not to lose. We need you to stay together and to win together. Otherwise you could end up like us in two hundred years. Remember to look at us as the experience if you lose”.
