Western Australia


 

Western Australia’s close proximity to Indonesia means that many West Australians prefer to hop on a plane to Indonesia rather than visit their sister states over on the east coast. AIYA WA was founded in 2012 to help connect young people to a network of like-minded individuals with an interest in all things Australia-Indonesia, and it continues to build strong community connections to strengthen the bilateral relationship.
