ANZAC Day in Phuket

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. Lest we forget.

At 5.45am, Australians and New Zealanders, Phuket community representatives, crew members from the HMAS Anzac, local schools, friends and family members gathered at the Phuket Yacht Club in Chalong to commemorate the 102nd ANZAC day.

 

Anzac Day is held on April 25 every year and commemorated by Australians and New Zealanders to remember those “who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations” and “the contribution and suffering of all those who have served”.

 

Anzac Day was originally commemorated to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who fought at Gallipoli against the Ottoman Empire during World War I. Anzac Day is also observed in the Cook Islands, Niue, Pitcairn Islands, and Tonga, and previously was a national holiday in Papua New Guinea and Samoa.

And so they should.  All these political correct morons that are trying to change Australia and stop days like this and other significant days should p*ss off back to their own Countries. Imaging if we tried pulling some of the crap here.
