Indeed, and they picked the day right after the AUKUS announcement, of all days, to submit their application.
That's IF they get the submarines then. What's politician's promise worth. I seem to recall only a few month ago there was a big plan called Build Back Better World?
They will likely get some of them by 2030.
China has a variety of DF missiles.
Now we shall see who is on China's side and who will remain as compradors to white anglo supremacy.

I'll told you so deep inside the Indonesian know that the target is them not China, cause for them proximity counts and the Australians are intruders and don't share our Asian value. So @supersnoop is right we are being hysterical , instead of forming an alliance of the willing it had created the opposite with major consequence for the Americans. It solidify the Chinese in the SCS with Japan on the back foot as the only Asian that sided with the foreigners (so called western values).

Australia’s plan to arm itself with a fleet of nuclear-propelled submarines to combat the rising threat of China has been met with alarm by near neighbour Indonesia.
South-east Asia’s largest country has expressed unease about Australia’s dramatic enhancing of its military, notably its intention to use US technology to build eight nuclear-powered submarines as part of the new three-way defence alliance with Washington DC and London.
In a statement issued on Friday, Indonesia foreign affairs spokesman Teuku Faizasyah said Jakarta had taken note of Australia’s decision to acquire nuclear-powered submarines and stressed “Indonesia is deeply concerned over the continuing arms race and power projection in the region”.
“Indonesia stresses the importance of Australia’s commitment to continue meeting all of its nuclear non-proliferation obligations,” the statement said.
“Indonesia calls on Australia to maintain its commitment towards regional peace, stability and security in accordance with the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation [the code of conduct between the Association of South-east Asian Nations].
“Indonesia encourages Australia and other parties concerned to advance dialogue in settling any differences peacefully. In this regard, Indonesia underscores the respect for international law, including UNCLOS 1982 [United Nations Convention on Law of the Sea], in maintaining peace and security in the region.”
