An Australian referendum to create an Indigenous advocacy committee to Parliament has failed_我的网站

A |     CANBERRA, Australia -- Advocates for constitutional change in Australia said they were devastated on Saturday by the defeat of a referendum that would have created an advocacy committee to offer advice to Parliament on policies that affect Indigenous people — the nation's most disadvantaged ethnic minority.Early counting showed that 57% of voters opposed the Indigenous Voice. Australian Broadcasting Corp. projections found New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania and South Australia had rejected the amendment.The Voice needed majorities in each of at least four of the six states as well as a national majority for the referendum to pass. Voice advocate Tanya Hosch, who spent a decade on developing the model, told ABC: “On a personal level, I feel devastated.”“There's going to be a lot of pain and hurt and dismay and we’re going to need to take a moment to absorb that message and what it says,” Hosch said.Another advocate, Tom Mayo, said he was also "devastated” and blamed unfair attacks on the plan."We have seen a disgusting ‘no’ campaign. A campaign that has been dishonest, that has lied to the Australian people,” Mayo said.Opinion polls in recent months indicated a strong majority of Australians opposed the proposal. Earlier in the year, a majority had supported it, before the “no" campaign gathered intensity. Voice advocates had hoped that listening to Indigenous views would lead to more effective delivery of government services and better outcomes for Indigenous lives.Accounting for only 3.8% of the population, Indigenous Australians die on average eight years younger than the wider population, have a suicide rate twice that of the national average and suffer from diseases in the remote Outback that have been eradicated from other wealthy countries.The Voice would have been the first referendum passed since 1977 and the first ever to pass without the bipartisan support of the major political parties.。    中新网北京8月21日电 (记者 张蔚然 谢雁冰)中国外交部发言人林剑21日主持例行记者会。         　　有记者提问：8月20日，孟加拉国举行总统选举，执政党孟加拉国民族主义党候选人阿拉姆吉尔当选孟第23任总统。中方对此有何评论？对下阶段中孟关系有何期待？          　　林剑：中方祝贺阿拉姆吉尔先生当选孟加拉国总统。
