Amid geopolitical flux in the Indo-Pacific, Australian High Commissioner Philip Green reaffirmed India and Australia’s unified strategic outlook during an in-depth discussion. The duo aims for a stable, liberated, and flourishing region, a stance fully endorsed by PMs Modi and Albanese.
Strategic harmony, economic fit, and the ‘human bridge’ of over 1 million Indian-Australians drive this partnership. These diaspora members bolster communities and commerce alike.
‘We’ve learned that trust and reliable alliances are non-negotiable,’ Green observed. This trust facilitated the ECTA, delivering rapid trade gains.
Export data tells the tale: India’s global shipments up 40% in five years; to Australia, a whopping 200% leap. ‘Complementary economies and confidence unlock this potential,’ he said.
Opportunities abound in education, farming, food, and travel. Tech stands out, with Australia’s WiFi and Google Maps innovations needing India’s globalization muscle. Green called on Aussie firms to seize chances at the impending AI Impact Summit.
As tensions simmer, this shared vision fortifies India-Australia relations, fostering trade booms, tech synergies, and enduring bonds for a resilient Indo-Pacific future.
