PRIME MINISTER: Gee, I have been elevated.

HOST: Mr Prime Minister.

HOST: Welcome, Prime Minister. And congratulations.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning. Thank you very, very much.

HOST: And Prime Minister, we spoke to you a number of times as Opposition Leader. And we did say just before the election, “Don't forget us when you become famous”. And to your complete credit, first week in the job, six days in, and here you are on Triple M Perth. So, thank you. We appreciate it very much.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Firstly, can I thank you for your sincere congratulations on my election as Australia's 31st Prime Minister. It is an honour that this is my first act as Prime Minister, to attend this important Quad Leaders' meeting here in Japan.

And as we gather today, I acknowledge all that the Quad has achieved. Standing together for a free, open, and resilient Indo-Pacific region. And working together to tackle the biggest challenges of our time, including climate change and the security of our region.
