MELBOURNE, 7 March 2022: On my way to attend the ‘AIBC Gala Night’ on the evening of 5th March, I was not sure what was in store. As I got down from a tram in Docklands, preceded by a train journey up to the Southern Cross station, and into the realm of classic cars or rather classic beauties of yesteryears. Little did I know about this place called ‘Fox Classic Car Collection’ exists with its numerous Mercedes, Ferraris, Porsche, Fords, and many other iconic ca

The AIBC event was yet to start and I started looking at the collection. As I moved from one display to another, it was like a Time Machine taking me to a bygone era and then back. A few media friends, meanwhile, joined and the excitement continued.

As we moved to the first floor for the Gala Night, there were many more classic cars around. Amid this classic automobile ambiance, the AIBC event started with the national anthems of Australia and India, my mind mesmerized at what I had seen. Art Suss, AIBC Vic Vice-President, CEO Linfox welcomed the guests followed by a formal address by Ravneet Pawha, AIBC Vic, President & CEO (South Asia), Deakin University. Others who spoke included The Hon Michael Sukkar, Minister of Housing, Labor Senator Kimberley Kitching, Raj Kumar Consul general of India in Victoria, Andrew Cumpston, Victoria Director of DFA, Maria Vamvakinou, Federal Labor MP and Vasan Srinivasan, AIBC Vic, Patron.
