NZ keen to resume FTA talks with Malaysia
Afp, Kuala Lumpur
New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark on Monday said her government is eager to resume free-trade talks with Malaysia and sees the services sector as a central component of an agreement. "We're keen to see officials start serious talking again around the free-trade agreement negotiations with Malaysia, particularly focusing on services," Clark said. New Zealand has a lot to offer Malaysia in areas of biotechnology, education and consultancy services, she added. Clark said New Zealand has ongoing free-trade discussions with China and, together with Australia, with the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) group, of which Malaysia is a member.
