What they're saying: Mayor Elango Elavalakan said, "At this time of year we pay our respects to all those who have served our country or have been affected by conflict. We hope Ipswich residents will join us by attending Remembrance Day events, supporting the Poppy Appeal, and observing the two-minute silence."
