High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Penelope "Penny" Ying-yen Wong Australian Labor Party politician, is the current and first Australian Minister for Climate Change and Water. Her appointment was amended on the 26 February 2010, by the Prime Minister, to the Minister for Climate Change, Energy Efficiency and Water. This change in the Government's cabinet was brought about by the controversy of the Home Insulation Program (HIP). She has been a member of the Australian Senate since 2002, representing South Australia. Wong is the first openly gay member of the Australian Commonwealth cabinet, and the first Asian-born federal minister. Wong was born in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia to a Malaysian Chinese Hakka father and an Australian mother. She moved to Australia at the age of eight with her mother and brother Toby, after her parents separated. Her brother later committed suicide aged 30, ten days after Penny was elected to the Senate in 2001. Wong is a practising Christian, attending Pilgrim Uniting Church in Adelaide.
