Today I will travel to Indonesia in my capacity as Minister for ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Affairs, Immigration, Multiculturalism and Cyber Security.
I will be attending the 10th Indonesia-Australia Ministerial Council on Law and Security (MCM) and Co-Chairing the 5th Sub-Regional Meeting on Counter Terrorism and Transnational Security in Bali.
This will include meetings with Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Hadi Tjahjanto.
Indonesia is one of our most important bilateral partners, including on civil maritime security, people smuggling and countering violent extremism.
The MCM is the ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Affairs Portfolio’s key bilateral engagement with Indonesia. It is the primary forum to consult and set priorities on law enforcement, civil maritime security, and counter-terrorism and transnational crime cooperation.
