BOB BROWN CEO
I was born in the year of 1942. The war years had a profound effect on the nation of Australia. For Aboriginal people who lived on the fringes of society, life was difficult. We were a people lost in our own country. I was fortunate to have parents who taught me to be proud of my Aboriginal heritage. My parents also made sure I knew about my entire cultural heritage. I never got to experience my Irish or Chinese heritage.
I recall my early years as a child moving from place to place as dad looked for work. He was a saw doctor who worked in the timber industry. We were often on the move with dad getting work where ever he could. My father taught me the value of hard work. He became an expert in building bark shelters on the edge of town. I recall on one occasion living in a cave on the banks of the Shoalhaven River. My life from childhood has been exciting, enjoyable and educational. I would not change it for the world.
After WW2, the late forties and fifties were hard years. Australia as a nation experienced the pain of economical recovery. We as Aboriginal people were not alone in our poverty, many white families also suffered during those years. Sadly, many aboriginal people still remain on the fringes.
Childhood has a way of leaving an impress on ones soul that finds expression later on in life. Growing up without a place to call home is one of the reasons why I created Miilan Limited, a charity registered by the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits commission.
As a charity we are committed to Housing, Health, Employment, Education, Training and Business Development. It is time for Aboriginal people to leave the past behind and enjoy the NOW. It is time to make home ownership a reality for aboriginal families. We cannot change history, but we can build a better tomorrows.
Yiray Energy is a committed to working with aboriginal corporations and communities, offering employment in manufacturing, and training and installation of our products.
Miilan is a Wiradjuri word meaning, “The first ray of a new day”. In essence that is Miilan Limited. A new day is dawning with new homes, new opportunities, new jobs, new hope, better days and brighter tomorrows
