Erika Feller FAIIA | To be a more engaged and fairer player when it comes to the two key global challenges of mass refugee flows and climate change. |
Graeme Dobell FAIIA | The same resolution as always – how Asia (economically epochal, strategically tectonic) will keep changing and growing and Australia’s place in it all?Plus, the rider to the resolution: keep a bit of bandwidth for the vital role Australia must play, should play, needs to play, in its arc of responsibility, the South Pacific. |
Robert O’Neill FAIIA |
We need to make a stronger effort to develop friendly relations in our own region, particularly with Indonesia, in the coming year. Our two counties should not have been withdrawing ambassadors from each other. We have some leeway to make up! |
