Ang Order of Australia ay bahagi ng pambansang parangal ng bansa — ito ang pinakamataas na pagkilala para sa mga Australyanong may kahanga-hangang ambag sa komunidad.

Ang mga nominasyon ay sinusuri ng isang independenteng konseho na nagbibigay ng rekomendasyon sa Governor-General.

Ayon kay Rob Ayling mula sa opisina ng Governor-General, ang Order of Australia ay para sa lahat ng Australyano — at nagsisimula ito sa nominasyon mula sa mismong komunidad.

“Some recipients are very well known, but the vast majority are unsung heroes—the sort of people that we all know in the community that give tirelessly of themselves, work selflessly and really make a difference. Some are volunteers, some achieve things in the community sector in industry, in sports, in the arts.”

There's really no limit to who can be recognised, but everyone that is recognised has one thing in common—and that's that somebody else has taken the time to nominate them for recognition.

Rob Ayling, Director at the Governor-General’s Office

Ang Council of the Order of Australia ang namamahala sa proseso at nagdedesisyon kung sino ang dapat kilalanin at saang antas: AC, AO, AM, at ang pinakakaraniwang iginagawad — ang OAM o Medal of the Order of Australia.

Hindi lang ikinagulat ni Tim Thorpe ang kanyang nominasyon, kundi pati na rin ang mainit na pagtanggap at paghanga ng kanyang mga kapwa sa natanggap niyang parangal.

The common thing with anybody who gets these awards is they think, ‘am I really worthy of this?’ But I think that's up to others to judge rather than me. And I appreciate the fact that they thought I was worthy of an award.

Gusto mo bang mag-nominate?

Bumisita sa Governor General's website.

Pahabol ni Rod Ayling, handa silang tumulong para sa pagsagot ng nomination form.

“We all want the Order of Australia to reflect the true diversity and strength of our country. And the only way for that to happen is for all Australians to take an active part in it, to look around their community, identify people that they think are extraordinary and have a great impact, whatever their work is, whatever their background is, and consider nominating them for the Order of Australia.”
