Billateral Relationship

#CAUSINDY: A Platform for Australian and Indonesian Young Leaders to Create A Stronger Bilateral Relationship

Australia-Indonesia relations had begun since the 17th century, even before European settlement of Australia. Trading contact was established between indigenous communities in Northern Australia and Makassare traders for trepang, or a type of sea cucumber which was considered as a high-valued commodity. The bilateral relations have since emerged, growing, and formalised with Australia’s full recognition of the independence of Indonesia in 1949.
