Even serious journalists began referring to the national legislature metaphorically as the “monkey house” to encapsulate the farcical behaviour they were obliged to report. With Tony Abbott being pre-emptively ousted from the prime ministership by Malcolm Turnbull in 2015, Turnbull himself was, in turn, unceremoniously usurped in bizarre circumstances in August 2018, handing over the leadership to his slightly bemused Treasurer Scott Morrison. Suddenly, Australia was being branded as the notorious “coup capital of the Western democracies”, with five prime ministers in five years and only one losing the high office at a general election.

Deepening Conflict Between Australia and China
Mitsui & Co. Global Strategic Studies Institute Monthly Report March 2021 DEEPENING CONFLICT BETWEEN AUSTRALIA AND CHINA —A TRANSITION PERIOD TO A NEW EQUILIBRIUM POINT— Yoji Okano Strategic Planning Department Mitsui & Co. (Asia Pacific) Pte. Ltd SUMMARY Relations between Australia and China are at the worst level ever. As China imposes economic sanctions, Australia is calling for dialogue. China, which has been dissatisfied with Australia over the past several years, has not responded to that request. Neither side shows signs of conceding, and the situation remains in a deadlock. For Australia, reducing its economic dependence on China is growing in importance. Trade investment and supply chain diversification are essential. Australia will likely strengthen its relations with India, a country with expanding demand for resources, and Southeast Asia, which sees the middle class growing. Considering the political calendar, it is highly probable that the situation will not improve until after the Australian election, which some think will be held before the end of the year. It is likely that the relaxation of China’s sanctions will only progress gradually. As the conflict between the United States and China becomes radical, Australia-China relations will, albeit improvement to some extent, remain likely to deteriorate for any small reason. 1. THE CURRENT POSITION OF AUSTRALIA-CHINA RELATIONS (1) Neither side showing compromise Australia-China relations, which were normalized in 1972, have fallen to the point that could be called the “worst ever.” Although a trend of deterioration has been seen since 2016, the conflict rapidly worsened when China intensely opposed the Australian government’s request for an independent investigation into the origins of COVID-19 in April 2020 (Figure 1).

Joint Media Release Strengthening Economic
THE HON JOSH FRYDENBERG MP Treasurer THE HON DAN TEHAN MP Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment JOINT MEDIA RELEASE 7 July 2021 STRENGTHENING ECONOMIC TIES WITH INDONESIA On 6 July 2021, Treasurer the Hon Josh Frydenberg MP and Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment the Hon Dan Tehan MP virtually hosted the inaugural Indonesia-Australia Economic, Trade and Investment Ministers’ meeting with their Indonesian counterparts. The meeting highlighted ways in which Australia and Indonesia worked together closely and productively over 2020-21 in the context of rapidly responding to COVID-19. “Today's meeting marks an important development in our economic, trade and investment relationship which is more significant now as we look to strengthen our cooperation in supporting economic recoveries, both in our own countries and across the region,” said Treasurer Frydenberg. Treasurer Frydenberg said “there are opportunities for deeper collaboration between our two nations on key global and regional challenges and we look forward to supporting Indonesia’s G20 presidency in 2022”. “Our countries share many interests in the World Trade Organization, APEC and ASEAN and I look forward to a closer partnership to progress our mutual priorities,” said Minister Tehan. Ministers emphasised the substantial economic relationship between the two countries and committed to growing it even further – particularly as both countries recover from the impact of COVID-19. Trade is flowing under the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, with the $40 million Katalis program creating jobs and opportunities in both countries. Minister Tehan said “Australia supports businesses in both countries, jointly developing and supplying a range of goods and services into regional and global markets, drawing on their respective strengths.

We determined that we would seize the opportunity in partnership with our supporters to build a bigger, stronger, smarter organisation capable of rising to the challenges ahead. This annual review of the Menzies Research Centre is a reminder of what we have been able to achieve this year thanks to our shared determination to keep Liberal thought at the heart of public policy. One of our proudest achievements this year was to establish the Robert Menzies Institute in partnership with the University of Melbourne, a centre that will bring a great prime minister’s legacy to life as an inspiration to future generations. We have produced major reports advocating sound public policy and expanded our presence in broadcasting and print. And we have acquired the equipment and skills to stream compelling video and audio content to a larger audience in every corner of the country.

Media Release 18 December 2020
Media Release 18 December 2020 Catholic sector looks forward to working with the new Federal Education and Youth Minister The National Catholic Education Commission (NCEC) is looking forward to working with the new Minister for Education and Youth, Alan Tudge MP, announced by Prime Minister Scott Morrison today, and thanks outgoing Minister Dan Tehan MP for his work in the education portfolio. NCEC executive director Jacinta Collins said the Catholic sector has had a productive working relationship with Minister Tehan over the past few years. “Catholic education is pleased to have worked with Mr Tehan, particularly in providing funding certainty for our schools by finalising the new school funding arrangements,” Ms Collins said. “Mr Tehan has always engaged with our sector and school communities in a constructive and supportive way. We congratulate him on his appointment as Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment and wish him well in his new portfolio. “We also congratulate Alan Tudge MP on his appointment as the new Minister for Education and Youth and look forward to working with him,” she said. “Australian Catholic education is celebrating our bicentenary next year and it’s because of the commitment of successive governments over the past 60 years that we have been able to contribute to the educational needs of one in five students in Australia. “We welcome the opportunity to continue our work, and the positive and productive working relationship we have with the Morrison government,” Ms Collins said.
