Maritime Legal Practice and Policy in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific: Synergies and Challenges for Australian Trade and Security

对东南亚和南太平洋海事法律的实践的分析将加强澳大利亚的国家海事决策和区域能力，以解决主要的海事问题，从而加强对海洋环境及其资源的可持续管理、经济安全、海事执法以及贸易和航运安全。这将给有关国家带来深刻的政治、经济和安全利益。这项研究将有助于维护澳大利亚的重要海洋利益以及我们的海洋邻国的利益，从而直接影响到澳大利亚的经济安全和繁荣、海洋环境的保护和维护，从而影响到澳大利亚社会的福祉。

Analysis of maritime legal practice in Southeast Asia and the South Pacific will bolster Australia's national maritime policy-making and regional capacity to address key maritime concerns, leading to enhanced sustainable management of the ocean environment and its resources, economic security, maritime enforcement and security for trade and shipping. This will deliver profound political, economic and security benefits to the countries concerned. The research will help to safeguard Australia's vital maritime interests as well as those of our maritime neighbours and therefore impact directly on Australia's economic security and prosperity, the protection and preservation of the marine environment and thus the well being of its society.
