You are encouraged to bring your own cup for tea/coffee or water. \nPlease let us know if you have any access requirements. \nAbout the book: Vast in scale and physically isolated\, Western Australia has evolved into an export powerhouse with a distinct identity defined by courageous thinking and small-town roots. In Out West: Big State\, Small Town\, Colin Barnett AC traces the modern story of Western Australia through the lens of his life and career in politics and beyond. In Out West\, Barnett reflects on the forces that have shaped the state’s development\, growing from an agricultural base into an economy responsible for around half of the nation’s exports. A key player in this transformation\, he held portfolios including Treasury\, Education and Tourism. \nServing as Premier from 2008 to 2017\, he writes candidly about leadership at the state and national level\, the relationships he sustained with Japan and developed with China\, his dealings with four Australian Prime Ministers\, and his role in international trade and investment\, from London to Houston. Barnett’s legacy also includes the environmental protection of the Kimberley\, the settlement of native title claims\, and landmark infrastructure projects that reshaped Perth. \nAbout the author:Hon Colin Barnett AC was the longest-serving Western Australian Premier in over 50 years\, serving from 2008 to 2017. \nBorn and educated in Western Australia\, Colin was elected in 1990 as the Member for Cottesloe in the Western Australian Parliament and served as Leader or Deputy Leader of the Parliamentary Liberal Party for every election from 1993 to 2017. As a minister in the 1990s\, he handled the deregulation and privatisation of the energy sector. He was involved in major new projects including the Goldfields Gas Pipeline\, and\, in the education portfolio\, he introduced a universal kindergarten and pre-primary year for all children. \nAs Premier\, Colin further developed the relationship with China which saw a doubling of iron-ore production and trebling of liquefied natural gas (LNG) production. Other landmark events include the settlement of native title over Perth and the southwest and the creation of major land and marine parks in the remote Kimberley. Major projects under his leadership included Elizabeth Quay\, Perth Stadium\, the sinking of the rail line\, Yagan Square and the Perth Children’s Hospital\, all of which transformed the city of Perth. \nHe is currently an Adjunct Professor in the Business School at the University of Western Australia. Out West is his first book.
