Sydney, Australia — Prominent community leader and former NRNA Australia President Nanda Gurung has shared an inspiring message celebrating the extraordinary progress of the Nepali diaspora in Australia. Reflecting on the community’s remarkable journey, Gurung praised how Nepalis have transformed from humble beginnings into influential figures across Australia’s business and property sectors.
In his social media post, Gurung wrote:
“Proud of our community going from strength to strength. Most of us came to the country with $US1500 and a suitcase, now to billionaire status. Now our community dominates some suburbs — builders, real estate agents, developers, vendors, purchasers, conveyancers, certifiers, inspectors, property managers, accountants — you name it.”
Gurung, who is also a Life Member of NRNA Australia, highlighted the entrepreneurial spirit and determination that have propelled the community to new heights. He credited hard work, unity, and vision as the key drivers behind this transformation.
He also pointed to the growing trend of SMSF (Self-Managed Super Fund) property investments, calling it “a great strategy to increase your property portfolio.” Gurung encouraged community members to explore this avenue for wealth creation and financial independence.
Known for his dynamic leadership and deep connection with the Nepali diaspora, Nanda Gurung has been instrumental in promoting Nepali entrepreneurship, social cohesion, and representation within Australia’s multicultural landscape.
His latest message has resonated widely, symbolizing pride, progress, and the powerful evolution of the Nepali-Australian community — from modest beginnings to becoming a significant force in the nation’s economy.
