Building a new Health and Hospitals Network is fundamental to building a stronger and fairer Australia. – Kevin Rudd
But Australia faces additional regional and global challenges also crucial to our nations future – climate change, questions of energy and food security, the rise of China and the rise of India. And we need a strong system of global and regional relationships and institutions to underpin stability. – Kevin Rudd
Because the time has come, well and truly come, for all peoples of our great country, for all citizens of our great commonwealth, for all Australians – those who are indigenous and those who are not – to come together to reconcile and together build a new future for our nation. – Kevin Rudd
There comes a time in the history of nations when their peoples must become fully reconciled to their past if they are to go forward with confidence to embrace their future. – Kevin Rudd
