How did Australia's relationship with Asia change directly after the Vietnam War?

Well, from what I know, Australia was fairly suspiscious & somewhat threatened by its neighbours during the time between 1901 & the Vietnam war. Being one of the most most well-off countries in the pacific region we had suspiscions that people were out to invade us, although the closest we've ever come to an invasion was the Japanese subs & bombs in WWII. Up until the Vietnam war (or there-abouts)Australia's relationship with the countries around it was pretty terible, as our main defence, trade & most other business affairs were between Auatralia & Britain (or America after WWII) so until that time Australia's relationship with the Asia Pacific region (to be blunt) was pretty bad. (Pardon my bluntness & pure laziness with details...)
