Address by th~ Minister for Mines, Prof. Dr. Sumantri
Brodjonegoro, on the signing of the Agreement on the
~stablishment of ascertaining sea-bed boundaries between
Australia and Indonesia, on May 18, 1971.
Excell ency,
It is a great pleasure for me to be here in
~stralia
today, to have the
honour of signing the Agreement on the establishment of certain sea-bed boundaries
between the Commonwealth of Australia and the Republic of Indonesia, which includes
boundaries in areas adjacent to Papua New Guinea and West Irian.
Australia and Indonesia,
'
as ~two close neighb6hring countries in this area of
the world, have now embarked upon another milestone in the history of their friendly
bilateral relationship, as it was evident by the si'gning of this Agreement which will
serve as a valuable instrument for both coqntries.
Thi s Agreement which was initially suggested in an informal discussion between
the Right Honourable 'W illiam McMahon - Prime Minister former Minister for Foreign Affairs,
and myself in December 1969, was received with a direct and favourable response by the
Australian Government, resulting in talks and negotiations which were conducted in a very
cordial atmosphere, with ample accommodation and understanding between the two parties.
Indonesia is at the moment endeavouring to attain a higher
through the implementation of the five year development plan.
stan~ard
of living
Therefore, this
Agreement, which we have just signed, will enable both countries to exploit and make
use of the available resources for the benefit and the prosperity of our respective
peoples, and at the same time will eliminate any possible friction which might arise
with respect to the exploration and exploitation of sea-bed resources.
Regarding pending issues with respect to other s·ea-bed boundaries further
discussions will be conducted, in the spirit of better understanding and closer
co-operation until we reach a mutual agreement.
Australia's increasing interest and positive orientation towards the countries
in her immediate vicinity have met with a most favourable response in Indonesia.
We
also believe that Australia has a far greater role to play and a much more substantial
contribution to offer to the common prosperity, peace and stability in this area of the
world.
Excellency,
Allow me, on this memorable occasion, to express on behalf of the Indonesian
Government, my sincere appreciation and gratitude for the assistance extended by you
and your staff in the preparation of thi's important document.
May this Agreement, signed today, be conducive to the establishment of further
closer co-operation and the cementing of firmer friendship between Australia and
Indonesia.
Thank you.-
MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS
CANBERRA,
A.C.T.
18 May 1971
Your Excellency,
I have the honour to refer to the Agreement
between the Government of the Commonwealth of Australia
and the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, signed
today, establishing certain seabed boundaries.
With regard to the seab.~~ boundary off the
northern coast of the island of New Guinea (Irian), it
is the understanding of my Government that the
agreement in paragraph 1 of Articie 4 that the lateral
boundary of the respective areas lies along the
straight line mentioned in;;. that paragraph does not
imply that national jurisdiction in the relevant areas
of seabed extends to or terminates at any particular
point along that line or along any lines extending it.
I should be glad to have your confirmation
that this is also the understanding of your Government.
Yours sincerely,
Signed
(LESLIE BURY)

Minister for Mines,
