An award-winning writer, journalist and essayist, Alice Pung offers an insight into multiculturalism from her perspective as a child of immigrant parents.
In her novels, she has traced her family history back to Cambodia and China, and has written about growing up as an Asian-Australian. She will draw parallels among Australia, Singapore, the US and Europe to start a discussion on how history and politics have an impact on the state of multiculturalism today.
