Most of the participants at this year's Wikimania Asia meetup favored for Indonesia. That's okay, but there's another point about hosting it in Australia. Australia's visa policy might result in a reduced number of participation from Asian communities, since that is not as generous as that of Indonesia. So this need to be kept in mind.

Australias offer is only if Indonesia dosnt want to proceed, I was at the
Berlin meetup where it was put forward and fully support Indonesia hosting the event... What ever the out we do need to ensure we get something happening for our communities locally soon as hosting a larger event in the region apparently is needed now before a wikimania can be hosted

Hi, Based in the meetup minutes, there was an intent from Indonesia. But if
Australia also intent to host too then it is best that we plan this as early as possible as the 1 hour meetup in Berlin and in Wikimania is too short.

last year or earlier, welcome back!
We had a meetup at Wikimania 2017 to talk about Asian Wikimedian
collaboration in the coming year. Notes of the meeting are here:

There's also a category for photos taken during this event:

According to the meeting, there will be Wikimedia Asia Month as usual.
We're also trying to do a Wikimedia Asia regional conference, likely in Indonesia. The various organisers will get make announcements on this mailing list in due course.
Great to meet you all! Deryck (Wikimedia Asia listadmin for wiki-historical reasons, actually lives
in England)
