As I have already indicated, international education has been identified as one of Australia's supergrowth sectors of the economy. Key priority markets have been identified for future growth, and we expect onshore opportunities to come in the future from China, which is currently our largest source of students, India, the Philippines, Thailand and Nepal, to name a few. The most likely markets for growth in the future are India, China, Vietnam, South Korea, Malaysia and Hong Kong. To realise the full potential of this sector, the Turnbull government is developing and will release quite soon the first ever international education strategy, which will seek to provide a pathway for future expansion of international education both here in Australia and through transnational education. I am planning to launch this strategy in coming months.
