I would say they have a duty to spy on Indonesia. Out of all the countries in the region that Australia has to contend with (a huge land mass, sparsely populated, full of mineral wealth), Indonesia is probably the least predictable. Indonesia is very close to the western side of Australia and has a population of 246 million(!).

You could argue that Indonesia has a muslim radical problem as well, but at least the govt recognises it as a problem. Indonesia seems to be trying to become more democratic and neutral in religious matters, whereas I'm not sure Malaysia has the same degree of commitment or willpower.
