ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Well, I'm about to head to the G20 to represent Australia with the world's biggest economies. It’s an opportunity to advance Australia's national interest, to talk about investment. I'll be having bilaterals with colleagues, including Prime Minister Modi of India and it will be an opportunity to put forward Australia's national interest. And one of the things that will happen at the G20 in Johannesburg, no doubt, is that we are the envy of the world.

MARK GIBSON, HOST: Well, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has been back in WA this week on his way to the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Johannesburg. More of a stopover than any major announcements, but there's always plenty to talk about. Prime Minister, welcome back.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Great to be here, Mark.

GIBSON: You must be the only person flying out of WA. You do realise the Ashes start tomorrow?

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will travel to Johannesburg, South Africa for the annual G20 Leaders' Summit from 20 to 22 November 2025.

The Summit brings together world leaders under South Africa's G20 Presidency and the theme of Solidarity, Equality and Sustainability.

This will be the first time the G20 Leaders' Summit has been held on the African continent.

Discussions at the Summit will focus on advancing inclusive and sustainable growth, reinforcing the G20's contribution to global resilience and championing a fair and just future for all.

OLIVER PETERSON, HOST: Good to have your company here on Perth Live. And standing opposite me in the 6PR studios is the Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese. Good to see you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Wonderful to be with you, Ollie.

PETERSON: How was Garden Island this morning?

MADELEINE KING, MINISTER FOR RESOURCES AND MEMBER FOR BRAND: Welcome, everybody, to HMAS Stirling here on the remarkable Garden Island here in my home town of Rockingham. I'm really delighted to be here with the Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister for Defence Industries, the Premier of Western Australia, and the Minister for Defence Industries as well. And here we are in front of the USS Vermont as part of the SRF West Rotation and the truly nation-building project that is AUKUS.

The Albanese Government is announcing today HIFraser as the first Australian company qualified to supply parts for US Virginia class submarines through the Government-funded Defence Industry Vendor Qualification Program (DIVQ) – supporting advanced manufacturing, creating high-value jobs, and strengthening Australia’s security through the AUKUS partnership.

ROBBIE VON, HOST: The moment has arrived, the Prime Minister has made his way into the building and he joins us on the show right now. Anthony Albanese, hello. Good morning. How you doing?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. I'm doing very well. It's beautiful day here in Perth.

CARLY PORTCH, HOST: Well, you've been, what is it, 38 times to the state now, just since being Prime Minister.

PRIME MINISTER: I have.

RUSSELL CLARKE, HOST: Who have you brought in for us today, Barra?

ADRIAN BARICH, HOST: Just a name, I just sort of, bugger those footballers, I thought. Let's go straight to the top and get the man himself. The Prime Minister of the country.

CLARKE: Good to see someone dressed up for the occasion here this morning.

BARICH: Yeah. Mr Albanese wearing his suit, looking fantastic. No Joy Division T-shirt today for us.

HOST: It's 8:22am. Nathan, Nat and Sean, and we're joined, all be up standing, please. We're joined by Alf from Home and Away.

HOST: He's up next, by the way.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Fantastic.

HOST: That's the lineup we've got at the moment, Prime Minister.

PRIME MINISTER: Albo and Alf. That could be a band or something. A sitcom.

HOST: Exactly, what a double act. I know.

ELSABE MULLER, PRESIDENT OF ALCOA AUSTRALIA: Can I thank the Prime Minister and his team here today for their efforts their effort to make this project about. We also acknowledge the support that we received from the Japanese, the US Government, Sojitz Corporation, and then also from the West Australian Premier, Roger Cook and his team.
