Mr GOSLING (Solomon) (13:43): Last week the Northern Territory lost a giant. Today friends and family say goodbye to Sharm Bali, a local legend in Darwin. He was born in India and migrated to Australia via England. He studied and worked in hospitality before arriving in the NT in 1982 and setting up Darwin's first Indian restaurant, the Maharaja. He worked in schools and tertiary institutions across the NT whilst also working several volunteer roles, including as president of the Indian Cultural Society of the Northern Territory. He was awarded the City of Darwin's Citizen of the Year award in 2021 for being regarded as one of the most generous Darwinians that year. After identifying a gap in the models of disability service delivery in the Territory, Sharm opened Territory Care and Support Services in 1999, which is now one of the leading providers of care in the Territory. Sharm was a passionate advocate for the NT, especially for the multicultural community. I had the pleasure of working with him a few years back setting up India Ideas Fest. Sharm is remembered as a loving husband to Kumi, a wonderful father to Keshini and Shyam, an adoring grandfather to Innika, Isla, Hamish, Rani and Luca, a beloved brother to Bobby, Kiran and Shanna and a kind father-in-law to Cameron and Ursula. Sharm Bali, rest in peace, mate.
