    Submission No 59 Inquiry into Australia’s Relationship with Timor-Leste Name: Mr Luke Gosling Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Foreign Affairs Sub-Committee Submission to the Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Committee Inquiry into Australia's relationship with Timor-Leste Luke Gosling, Darwin NT 1. Bilateral relations at the parliamentary and government levels; Our deep relationship with Timor-Leste goes back to the Second World War where a group of Australian Commandos with the help of the Timor-Leste people operated from late 1941 until late 1942. The Timorese people suffered greatly, with at least as many civilian casualties as our Forces suffered in the entire War. For a small population that loss was huge. The Commandos and their Timor-Leste colleagues conducted a classic guerilla Warfare campaign against the Japanese Imperial Forces and a unique bond was formed that was covered in a film I co-produced, screened on Channel 9, called ”A Debt of Honor”. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofAK6roD4dY&feature=youtu.be&noredirect=1) The title came from a comment by General Peter Cosgrove, Commander of the Australian-led International Force for East Timor (INTERFET), that our intervention was in part repayment of that debt of honor from World War II. Our ongoing relationship with Timor-Leste is an essential one and one that is taken very seriously and taken to heart by people in Darwin, Palmerston and the Top End. The Parliamentary Friends of Timor-Leste group plays an important role in navigating a course for our relationship that connects and strengthens our bonds with our good neighbors and friends in Timor-Leste and the work of ALP International has similarly been providing an important link through capacity building for better governance and more transparent processes in Timor-Leste political parties.

    STRATEGIC STRATEGIC INSIGHTS North of 26° south and the security of Australia Views from The Strategist Vol. 2 152 Paul Barnes, Luke Bowen, David Burke, Luke Courtois, John Coyne, Hal Crichton-Standish, Malcolm Davis, Rhys De Wilde, Graeme Dunk, Genevieve Feely, Luke Gosling, Marcus Hellyer, Corinda Hollis, Peter Jennings, Mason Littlejohn, David Malone, Tony McCormack, James Rickard, Lucy Rodgers, Andy Singh and Nicholas Thomson. Supporting a rare-earths industry in Australia Genevieve Feely and Rhys De Wilde, 12 July 2019 Last month, Stephen Kuper highlighted his concerns about the security of the global supply chain for rare-earth elements (REEs), particularly as it relates to sustaining the US defence force. Right now, it’s a bleak outlook. The Chinese government dominates the global supply of REEs and has demonstrated an increased willingness to use that as leverage against America and its allies during the continuing US–China trade war. However, it’s not all bad news. Anxiety over access to supply chains could create an important strategic and economic opportunity for the Australian government, a suggestion raised elsewhere in the media recently. With new thinking, and the right investments, Australia could source and process REEs. Image courtesy: ullstein bild/Getty Images May 2020 2 Strategic Insights REEs are essential for manufacturing of a range of everyday products, such as mobile phones, refrigerators and cars. They also play a critical role in the production and maintenance of the world’s cutting-edge defence capabilities. REEs didn’t get a mention in the 2016 defence white paper, but, more recently, Defence Minister Linda Reynolds has recognised that securing the supply of REEs is in our strategic interest.
