The term of Governor Hieu Van Le of South Australia has been extended for another two years until August 202I. Hon Van Le, who came to Australia as a boat refugee in 1977, became the Lieutenant Governor in 2007 and Governor in 2014. Prior to coming to Australia, Hon Van Le had lived in the Philippines for a while, the reason why he has a soft heart for FIlipino-Australians in the state. (In Filipino)
