What a wonderful evening!
This week, Senex was pleased to cohost the Australia-Korea Business Council Members Brisbane Meetup with POSCO International Corp's Miss Yumi Han. 🤝
Australia and South Korea have one of the most important trade relationships in our region, and gas and energy sits right at the heart of it.
Australian gas for our Australian trading partners – not just Australia – means petrol, diesel and jet fuel for Australians. 🌏
In 2024, Australia exported 11.4 million tonnes of Liquified Natural Gas to South Korea. In return South Korea sent us 11.6 million tonnes of liquid fuels — petrol, diesel and jet fuel.
These figures highlight the deep interdependence between Australia and Korea on energy security, which was recommitted to by Australia’s Foreign Minister, Senator Penny Wong, on 30 April.
If Australia’s proposed gas reservation results in us failing to deliver our side of the energy agreement, and petrol, diesel and jet fuel don’t flow back to Australians, our economy grinds to a halt.
We were delighted to welcome Consul General Seong-Yeon Kim and over 60 guests from across the Australian and Korean business community to celebrate the mutually beneficial partnership between both countries of which we can all be proud and should furiously protect. 🩵
