中评社新加坡6月3日电（记者 臧涵）澳大利亚总理Malcolm Turnbull在昨日开幕的第十六届香格里拉对话会上发表主旨演讲，英文全文如下：
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Dr John Chipman, honoured guests, ladies and gentlemen. I thank you for the honour of inviting me to deliver this year’s keynote address.
As always, visiting Singapore is a pleasure - indeed, Prime Minister Lee, you and your countrymen make all Australians feel at home here, none more so than our son, daughter-in-law and grand daughter - born in 2015 and thus an SG50 baby.
That 50 years of Singapore's independence has seen profound changes to our region, and profound contributions to the world from our region - one of which is this very meeting.
The Shangri-La Dialogue has grown to become one of the world’s great strategic gatherings since you, John, established it fifteen years ago with the encouragement of the Australian historian Bob O’Neill and our former Defence Minister Robert Hill.
Your reasoning was straightforward.
