00:00Australia and Malaysia say they will strengthen energy supply chains and keep trade flowing,
00:06following recent disruptions linked to the Middle East conflict.
00:09Prime Minister Datuk Sri Anwar Ibrahim says state energy firm Petronas
00:14will prioritise sending excess fuel to Australia as both countries look to secure more stable supplies.
00:21He says, however, Malaysia will still prioritise its own domestic energy needs.
00:27We give priority. So we look at the details.
00:30I mean, we also met Petronas chiefs and they will continue to have detailed discussions.
00:39And I think what we need to do is of course to see first our domestic requirements
00:46and also Australia's domestic energy requirements and see where we can assist each other
00:55in a quid pro quo basis.
00:58Anwar also confirmed that his discussions with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese
01:03included plans to strengthen both agricultural and fuel trade between the two countries.
01:09Malaysia expressed interest in importing mineral phosphates from Australia
01:12while offering urea exports in return to support a balanced and reliable supply for both sides.
01:18Albanese's visit to Malaysia marked his third stop in Southeast Asia,
01:23following earlier visits to Singapore and Brunei as part of efforts to secure food and energy resources.
