Well said Susannah Patton. Australia is upping its economic diplomacy in Asia, while also undervaluing the critical role education plays in bilateral relations with our neighbours. Looking forward to hearing more from the Asia Society Australia new Asia Agenda, launching next week.

New research from SSPS has shown that family dynasties are more common in democracies than authoritarian systems. Political nepotism has made many women national leaders, particularly in Asia - from Megawati Sukarnoputri to Paetongtarn Shinawatra abc.net.au/news/2024-08-3…

Great to see my colleague Rahman Yaacob contributing to debate on the ASPI Strategist about Malaysia's foreign policy direction under Anwar. I'm a bit less sanguine about Anwar's foreign policy but fully agree that disengagement isn't the answer aspistrategist.org.au/no-malaysia-is…

As China’s influence rises, cooperation with a smaller and capable partner such as Australia might help Southeast Asian countries feel less anxious, but it’s unlikely to change anything much. New from me in the Interpreter 👇 lowyinstitute.org/the-interprete…

My The Lowy Institute IPDC colleague Hilman Palaon has a very interesting Canberra Times op-ed out pointing to a key way Australia can strengthen ties with Indonesia beyond defence by supporting Prabowo’s crucial domestic social protection agenda.

Neither Harris or Trump delivered a single knockout line in the debate, but two quotes did frame the choice on offer about American foreign policy. Quick piece from me. lowyinstitute.org/the-interprete…

Glad that lots of people are reading this and hope that it nudges along a bit of debate inside and outside government about Australia's ties with Southeast Asia in the context of China's growing influence in the region

Thought-provoking piece from Susannah Patton and Hervé Lemahieu on the state of polarity in Asia. Always great to see Australian views of regional strategic trends at the top of major US publications. foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…
