Australia is:
-part of the South East Asia area.
- the continent of Oceania or
Australiasia, which takes into account NZ and some other islands like Fiji
so in a sense yes it is part of Asia.
hope that helps!

australia is a continent seperated from asia, if you are talking about how are they so close together, it is due to continental drift.
all of the continents started out as a big piece of land, known as Pangea. After several years of ocean tides and curents, they slowly broke apart.
Look at a globe, notice how all of the continents fit in one another. Africa was in between the gulf of mexico and around S.A, south america

It is not a part of Asia, it's like "Australia and Oceania" itself. But recently it has become obvious that Australia have a tight partnership with Asian countries. Nothing strange here 'cause it's essential geographical cooperation.

Australia is never been part of Asia. Australia is one of the seven continents. Fyi, we have Asia, Europe, South America, North America, Africa, Australia and Antartica

No! Australia is it's own Continent. It has never been a part of anything but itself.
