The Australian Senate has passed legislation for a new free trade agreement with Malaysia.
Under the deal, almost all Australian goods will be able to enter Malaysia free of import duties.
In return, Malaysian exporters will enjoy duty-free entry to the Australian market.
Malaysia is Australia's third largest trading partner in ASEAN, and tenth largest partner overall, with exports of $5 billion and imports of just over $9 billion last financial year.
Australia's Trade Minister Craig Emerson speaks to Whitney Fitzsimmons about this deal with Malaysia and other trade issues.
