>who also uses MMP (like Australia)

Australian federal lower house elections are single member IRV, upper house are multiple member STV. MMP isn't used anywhere in Australia.

Correction, MMP is sort of used in Tasmania's lower house with the Hare-Clark thing.

And they've got an even more convoluted mechanism for their upper house :)
