This was incredibly special.
Suhang’s cochlear implant was activated, and his parents invited us to witness it.
Cochlear is a proud Australian invention, and by sharing our skills and technology we can change lives across the world for the better.
Cochlear have now helped 850,000 people across the globe, including 55,000 here in China.
Thank you to the Xia family for inviting me to share this moment with you.

After a tough few years, we’ve started 2025 with new reasons to be optimistic about the road ahead.
There's more to do.
We're back in Parliament to make free TAFE permanent, guarantee three days of child care subsidy, keep the NBN in public hands and more.
We're building Australia's future.
Today is an historic day for South Australia.
Our train services have returned back into public hands.
Bringing a privatised service back into public hands is a remarkable achievement, and one that will benefit South Australians each and everyday.
If you’ve got the time; it’s a good read. If not here’s the top 3 things:
1. Abolishing the 50% pass rule for HECs eligibility.
2. Ensuring that all Indigenous students are eligible for a funded place at university.
3. Creating an additional 20 Regional Study Hubs!!
I know my comments may be inflammatory here but I’d argue the best piece of a fresh loaf of bread is the end piece. Crispy, crunchy and soft on one side; perfection.
