Indonesia hopeful diplomatic relations with Australia will improve under Malcolm Turnbull leadership
Evi Fitriani, the head of the International Relations Department at the University of Jakarta, said the leadership change provided an opportunity for renewal.
"Because of the personality of Malcolm Turnbull himself. I think he is a more sensible person who we can talk with," she said.
Ms Fitriani said she believed Mr Abbott's approach did not suit Indonesia's style, and his language was too harsh.
Endy Bayuni, a senior editor at the Jakarta Post, said it could be a positive change.
"Any change at this space will probably have a better chance of the two countries patching up their differences and actually at least start talking again," he said.
