Cambodian Hong Lim has won a vote to represent the Australian Labor Party in
Victorian state polls.
Lim, 43, beat the sitting MP Dr Gerard Vaughan to
win the nomination for the Clayton constituency in the polls, scheduled for
1996.
He said: "To be chosen as its [ALP's] candidate is both a privelege
and a heavy responsibility. I hope I will be equal to that task."
Lim
lives in the Victorian town of South Oakleigh with his wife Bopha and two sons.
He has lived in Australia since emigrating from Cambodia in 1970.
