- Indonesia's Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa floated the idea on Wednesday, suggesting that Jakarta could leverage its geographical position on the Malacca Strait, which connects the Indian and Pacific Oceans and carries more than 40 per cent of the world's seaborne trade, for financial gain. He then quickly backtracked, saying "If only it could be like that." The idea follows Iran's move to impose a toll of up to $US2 million for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Alicia Garcia Herrero, chief economist for Asia Pacific at Natixis spoke to The World's Girish Sawlani Indonesia's move was a miscalculation and that its government has lost credibility as a result.

The Albanese government this week unveiled a dramatic planned overhaul of the now $50 billion-a-year-scheme that it says is necessary to ensure the NDIS is around for future generations.

- Iranian state TV has aired video purportedly showing soldiers seizing container ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The IRGC says it seized container ships MSC Francesca and Empaminondas in the Strait of Hormuz.
Montenegro's minister of maritime affairs has confirmed the seizure of the Panama-flagged MSC Francesca container ship.
In a statement, the Guards said the ships were detained for "operating without the required authorisation and for manipulating navigation systems," adding that this allegedly endangered maritime safety.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier US President Donald Trump does not view the seizure of a Panama-flagged cargo ship and a Liberian cargo ship by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a violation of the ceasefire.
