New Delhi- Australian High Commissioner in India Philip Green has made an important statement about the relationship between the two countries. He made it clear that India and Australia stand together like a rock amid the ongoing turmoil in the Indo-Pacific region. Green said both countries share a common vision for this strategic region. He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese fully agreed on the issue that the Indo-Pacific region should be stable, free and prosperous. This partnership is breaking new records not only on the diplomatic front but also on the economic and technological fronts.
Philip Green presents startling statistics on the success of the Free Trade Agreement (ECTA) between the two countries. He said that India’s exports to the world have grown by 40% in the last five years, but during the same period, India’s exports to Australia have grown by 200%. This means that growth is five times faster. He said that since we produce different types of goods, we do not compete with each other, but complement each other’s needs.
The High Commissioner described the more than one million people of Indian origin as a “human bridge” in the relationship between the two countries. He also hinted at a greater partnership in the field of technology. “We built WiFi, we built the technology for Google Maps, but we don’t have the ability to globalize and scale it like India,” Green said. He urged Australian tech companies to come to India and bring their innovations to the world.
He said, “We produce very different goods and services, so we have very little competition. And thirdly, what brings us together is what we call the human bridge. The more than one million people of Indian origin who now call Australia their home are making a huge contribution not only to our community in Australia, but also to bilateral trade relations.”
