As it’s a working day, most of the Bangladeshi expatriates came to see the red-green flag flying on the center of Melbourne's in the afternoon. Some people stand alone singing, The National Anthem of Bangladesh "Amar Sonar Bangla, Ami Tomay Valobashi (My glittering golden Bengal, I love you)."
Bangladeshi expatriates responded to the questions of the local people regarding this day. In the afternoon, many Bangladeshis expressed deep respect to the martyrs of Bangladesh by singing The National Anthem in group as well.
From March 26, 2013, The National Flag flies every year at the Federation Square. 'Spirit 71' organization of Bangladeshi expatriates plays the key role to organize and implement the event successfully.
