CMF has received an official visit from the “Fremantle Municipality” | Funchal News Madeira News – Information from everyone for everyone!

Today, the mayor of Funchal received on an official visit in the municipality of Bayd, the mayor de Freemandel, who was accompanied by a council member and the Honorary Consul of Portugal in Perth, John Da Silva.
The council’s memo says that this visit is particularly meaningful, and it is the first visit to the Australian mayor to the self -government. This occasion is part of the context of strengthening relations between Funchal and Fremantele, the cities that have emerged since February 6, 1996, as a result of a great presence of a large Madirin community in the Australian city.
The Genetics Agreement was signed by the “mayor”, Jenny Archibald, and his technical homered Miguel Albukirk during an official visit to Australia.
The following year, on March 7, 1997, the same Australian Edil moved to Funchal, where he participated in the equivalent document, and the official character of the union between the two cities.
Also in 2016, on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of this important agreement, the official delegation of Freemantel, led by mayor, Brad Bettte, accompanied by Australia Ambassador to Portugal, Paul Rainer, visited the city of Funchal, and he received it in the noble city hall.
It is now happening in the year that was now held in a special symbolic year, where the eighty -sixth anniversary of the creation of diplomatic relations between Portugal and Australia is celebrated, which also confirms the fixed relations between the two countries.
In addition, in 2026, the thirtieth anniversary of the signing of the Generation Agreement between Funchal and Fremantle will be celebrated, which enhances a historical connection that goes beyond the geographical distance and is based on the common values of progress and development, and concludes CMF.
