Nobel laureate and Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama on Sunday congratulated Prime Minister-elect Anthony Albanese on his party’s victory in recently concluded elections.
In a letter to Anthony Albanese, Dalai Lama said ‘beginning with my first visit to Australia in 1982, I have had the privilege to visit your beautiful country quite regularly, mostly at the invitation of educational institutions and organisations committed to peace.
I have been deeply touched by the openness and warmth of people from all walks of life. I have been encouraged by the enthusiastic interest many have shown in my efforts to promote basic human values such as kindness, tolerance, and forgiveness, as well as inter-religious harmony’, he added.

Its principles of non-violence and compassion have the potential to help individuals find peace of mind and contribute to peace in the world, he further stated.
He wished the Prime Minister-elect every success in meeting the challenges that lie ahead in fulfilling the Australian people’s hopes and aspirations and in contributing to a more harmonious world.
