The event brings together key Indonesian, Australian and ASEAN industry and government
players to identify and analyse major trends, opportunities and challenges in
the mining sector across this fast-growing region.
Australia’s
Trade Commissioner in Jakarta, Julianne Merriman, said that this year’s theme – Australia and ASEAN: Partnering for Performance – signifies how
business people throughout the region are linking with Australian expertise to

“Ozmine2013
provides the perfect opportunity to build relationships further and meet new Australian business partner from a wide variety of roles in the mining
