Rex Burkhead Limited Jersey , Sept. 2 (Xinhua) -- Australia's opposition leader is under increasing pressure to support Australia's landmark free trade agreement (FTA) with China.
Bill Shorten faces new pressure to sign off on the deal now that state Labor leaders have said the agreement was "good news" for Australia.
Federal Labor has been hesitant to throw support behind the deal out of fear that it puts Australian jobs at risk, but state Labor leaders such as Victoria's Daniel Andrews and South Australia's Jay Weatherill have already given it the thumbs up.
