  • Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston
    5 July 2011 ‘I See the Indian Ocean to be as Important as the Pacific’ – Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston Sergei DeSilva-Ranasinghe FDI Senior Analyst Key Points As the Indian Ocean’s importance continues to increase, Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston believes that: Australia’s defence forces must be able to operate in both the Pacific and Indian Oceans simultaneously Australia will need to engage the military leadership of China, India and other Indian Ocean littoral states Existing base facilities in Western Australia may be used more frequently, or possibly upgraded Summary As among the few countries in the world bordering two oceans, since the Second World War Australia’s interest toward the Indian Ocean has fluctuated with the advent of strategic rivalry, as seen initially with Germany and Japan, later the Soviet Union, and now the rise of China and India. In this context, Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, who recently retired from the role of Chief of the Defence Force, spoke to FDI’s Sergei DeSilva-Ranasinghe in April about the growing importance of the Indian Ocean to Australia. Commentary Future Directions International: Q: Can you tell us about the importance of the Indian Ocean to Australia? ACM Houston: As Australia straddles two oceans, I see the Indian Ocean to be as important as the Pacific Ocean. Australia has always been very mindful of the fact that we need to be able to operate in both oceans. We have a large part of our navy based in HMAS Stirling, at Garden Island just south of Perth. We also have naval facilities in Darwin.
