Getting to know the neighbours

I recently joined a four-day Conference of Australian and Indonesian Youth (Causindy) in Canberra where 28 young future leaders of both countries discussed many bilateral issues. I was amazed at my Australian colleagues who speak Indonesian very well and know Indonesia deeply. Thus, many recommendations emerged from our warm discussions to improve the bilateral relationship, especially through people-to-people links.

Respecting the Language of Unity on Youth Pledge Day

In a recent four-day Conference of Australian and Indonesian Youth (Causindy) in Canberra, I was fascinated to find fellow delegates from Australia speaking Bahasa Indonesia — some of them eloquently.

Since the delegates were selected based on their keen interest in the Indonesia-Australia relationships and their understanding towards the cultures of both nations, it should not have been a huge surprise to witness the fact that the Australian delegates have acquired Bahasa Indonesia.

The ties that bind

That no one overarching issue dominated CAUSINDY might seem like an obvious statement; but it’s well worth reflecting upon.

In the history of Australia-Indonesia relations, one issue or event has usually been salient – be it Confrontation, The White Australia policy, East Timor, or terrorism (to name a few). Previous bilateral conferences would have discussed these issues with the underlying fear of rapidly deteriorating bilateral relations, perhaps even future conflict.
