A stable and peaceful maritime domain is at the heart of our shared interests and prosperity. Australia has consistently called for compliance with the 2016 South China Sea Arbitral Award. We reiterate our steadfast commitment to international law, particularly UNCLOS.

It’s @naidocweek in 🇦🇺, so a fitting time to check out “Dan Lain-Lain” (“Etc”) - an exhibition curated by Indigenous 🇧🇳 artist Elroy Ramantan to empower artists from minority communities to stimulate “conversations on overlooked aspects of society”. Beautiful & thought-provoking!

The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) provides the comprehensive legal framework for all activities in the oceans and seas. As @AusAmbPH says - on the anniversary of the 2016 SCS Arbitral Award - adherence to UNCLOS is vital for an open, stable & prosperous region.

Today marks the 8th anniversary of the 2016 South China Sea Arbitral Award, which is final and binding. Australia has consistently called for the decision to be respected. Adherence to #UNCLOS is vital for an open, stable and prosperous region.

Modern 🇧🇳 is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year - making it a few years younger than yours truly! But the Sultanate had a rich history prior to its “resumption of full independence”, which I learnt more about at 🇧🇳’s History Centre - great spot for history geeks like me!
