Curtis Pitt, Queensland Parliament Speaker, has officially announced the international event ‘Salute The Nations’ to be held in Brisbane.
The event, ‘Salute the Nations’, is organized by the Agnes and Teresa Foundation, run by the sisters, under the auspices of the UN Association of Australia.

In addition to representatives from various countries, the Australian Book of Records team will also be present. Agnes and Theresa’s mission is to organize this event in different countries in collaboration with the United Nations.
The sisters are awaiting new world records such as the first children in the world to memorize national anthems of different countries and the first two children in the world to sing in more than 100 international languages.
