"Australia & Indonesia: Can We Be Friends?"
Event Information
Description
The Australia-Indonesia Centre and Australian Foreign Affairs are delighted to invite you to the launch of the third issue of Australian Foreign Affairs:
The third issue of Australian Foreign Affairs examines the turbulent relationship between Australia and Indonesia, and the missteps and missed opportunities that have prevented the forging of a friendship. It examines Indonesia’s rise, its sharp religious and political divisions, and the opportunities and challenges this presents for Australia.
Australia and Indonesia is crucial reading for anyone wanting to understand the intricacies of one of Australia’s most important relationships. As Asia’s power balance changes, the two neighbours need to deepen ties now to avoid a wider gulf in the future.
Panel:
- Professor the Hon Gareth Evans AC QC FASSA FAIIA (Chancellor, Australian National University)
- Professor Tim Lindsey (Director of the Centre for Indonesian Law, Islam and Society, The University of Melbourne)
- Dr Nasya Bahfen (Senior Lecturer, La Trobe University)
- Moderated by Helen Brown (Digital Economy Fellow, The Australia-Indonesia Centre)
