AUSTRALIA-VOTE-OATH-RUDD
Penny Wong (L) who becomes the country's first Asian-born minister, with responsibility for climate change chats with Prime Minister Kevin Rudd (R) at Government House in Canberra 03 December 2007 after Rudd was sworn in as Australia's 26th prime minister following a landslide election win nine days ago against long-serving conservative leader John Howard. Rudd took the oath of office before Governor-General Michael Jeffery at Government House in Canberra, launching a new era in which the centre-left leader has pledged to roll back many of Howard's policies. The new prime minister has promised to sign the Kyoto Protocol on climate change, pull Australian troops out of Iraq and dismantle union-busting labour laws passed by the previous government.
