Don Farrell, @AustralianLabor Trade and Tourism minister on @AusTrade with #India #China #EU - and helping @TourismAus rebound | @ALPSA

Australia's trade and tourism minister, Clare Valley resident and South Australian Labor senator Don Farrell joins us on FlowFM to talk about how trade relations with China are going, with the potential the 'freeze' is over, and how the recent India trade mission went. We discuss personal anecdotes appreciated by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on a Mrs Ebert from Goa, India who taught the Australian trade minister in year 1, and a commemoration on 22 March 2023 in Terowie, South Australia of the moment the US general Macarthur uttered the famous promise to The Philippines: "I Shall Return". Also on the menu is a discussion on cherished European terms like prosecco, feta and parmesan and how the Australian trade minister has pushed back on the European Union's claims these could be reserved under an Australia - EU trade deal; we reflect upon an Australian Grape and Wine request for revived export market grant assistance and a meeting on Friday 17 March 2023 with Australia's tourism ministers about further invigorating a market that has been battered, shown resilience and is bouncing back.
