498 Million $ on Australian War project

"We will really see the Australian war vision so that they can tell new stories in new ways," Prime Minister Scott Morrison said.

Morrison is expected to announce on Thursday the authorized amounts for a major redevelopment of the Australian war worth $ 498 million.

It should be noted that the background to this statement is that the Foundation continued to exert pressure to inject this money in most of 2018.

Nelson said the proposal was primarily aimed at "very thorough redevelopment" - including a new hall to showcase more helicopters and memorial planes - as a place to think, a new exhibition of contemporary conflicts and the transfer of administrative facilities to a new building.

The Australian war memorial received 498 million dollars for a major redevelopment to be unveiled by Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Thursday.

The director of the monument, Brendan Nelson, said in April that the investment would fund "an important national project" to ensure the preservation of the heritage of the building.

"In addition to my ability to show more of her collection, we want the Australian War Memorial to be able to tell the stories of past years in Afghanistan, Iraq, the Solomon Islands and East Timor."

But critics said it would be better to channel investment to promote veterans' services from the celebration, but Morrison told them: "The government wants to respect the service of Australian men and women."

"Whether we are veterans of conflicts that we have seen for decades or over the past few years, we are achieving practical recognition and we support our soldiers and women who deserve it," he said.
