Calls for Australia to adopt a more diverse public holiday have received mixed responses from some migrant communities. While some believe it is a step in the right direction, others think it is not appropriate.
Over the past two decades, migration to Australia has shifted from the main countries of Great Britain to non-European countries.
India, Nepal, China, Vietnam, and the Philippines were the top five most common countries of birth among migrants in Australia between 2016-2021.
Should Australia represent more culture with public holidays?
That's the question being asked as the country continues to see an increase in migration from non-European countries.
