Ethnic Liaison Officer Constable Mandeep Kaur moved to Ozland about twenty years ago. A single mother with two children had a big struggle waiting for her.

After living for a short time in Australia, she moved to NZ.

Before joining police force, she also tried her luck in a challenging environment of taxi driving.

Below listen to Mandeep Kaur's International Women’s Day message (in Punjabi) with SBS Punjabi's Preetinder Singh Grewal:

Born and brought up in Punjab, Ms Sidhu migrated to Australia nearly 20 years ago in 1999.

Working as a NZ police Constable, she holds the position of Ethnic Peoples' Community Relations Officer for Waitemata District, Auckland.

Ms Sidhu's story is a lifelong journey that is full of motivation and inspiration.
