In Indonesia, the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ of Adelaide was especially pleased to sign a credit transfer (dual award) agreement with IPB ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ and visit Mulawarman ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ (UNMUL) in East Kalimantan, with a dual award agreement also signed with UNMUL after the Mission.

In the Philippines, the delegation broadened its strong engagement and collaboration with key partners and stakeholders and met with the ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥n Ambassador to the Philippines.

The ÐÓ°ÉÖ±²¥ of Adelaide is proud of its meaningful engagement in Southeast Asia, and looks forward to further strengthening its partnerships in the region to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes for our local and global communities.
