Australia has a number of Comprehensive and Strategic Partnerships with our ASEAN neighbours. These contemporary partnerships stem from long and enduring relationships based on mutual respect and interests spanning political, economic, security, development, maritime, education and people-to-people ties.

“Southeast Asia has been a constant priority for Australia’s foreign and strategic policy practitioners. It has been front-of-mind for government, and it will always be so”.

Frances Adamson, Secretary Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, 21 April 2021
