Dinner with Honorary Consul Manuela Erb

On April 28, SAAN´s Melbourne based Executive Board was delighted to spend the evening having dinner with the newly appointed Honorary Swiss Consul in Victoria, Mrs Manuela Erb.

SAAN got the chance to bring Mrs Erb up to date with its organisation as well as its past and intended activities. Both parties had the oppotunity to discuss all kind of matters related to the Swiss community in Australia. SAAN is pleased to have a strong relationship with Switzerland´s official representatives in Australia and is looking forward to developing this in the future.
