that is beloved by fans all across the country. it's got an awful lot of african-american players. it's steeped in african-american culture and i suspect the nba will be deeply concerned in resolving this. i will make just one larger comment about this. we -- the united states continues to wrestle with the legacy of race. slavery and is heing risegregatl there. we've made enormous strides. we will see this percolate up every so often. we will have to be clear in steadily denouncing it, teaching
11:01 pm
our children but also remaining hopeful that part of why some statements like this stand out so much is because there have been a shift -- there has been this shift in how we view ourselves and like malaysia, we constantly have to be on guard against racial attitude that's divide us rather than embracing our diversity as a strength. i know that the people of malaysia will committed to wrest willing with those i ling with those issues as well. we have to make sure that we stay on top of it. we will. even though it wasn't directed me at. i will say one thing about tpp that somehow some protesters here might indicate the u.s. bullying -- keep in
11:02 pm
at some point object because they're fearful of the future or invested in the status quo. i think it's just very important to wait and see exact pli what is the agreement that has been negotiated. before folks jump to conclusion. the united states does extraordinary work in research and development and providing medical break throughs that save a lot of lives around the world. those companies that made investments in that research often want a return. and so there are all kind of issues around intellectual properties and patents and so forth. tame, i think we would all agree that if there's a medicine that can save a lot of lives, then
11:03 pm
we've got to find a way to make sure that it's fable to folks who simply can't afford it as part of our common humanity. and both of those values are reflected in the conversations and the associations that are taking place around tpp. so the assumption that somehow right off the bat that's not something we're paying attention to, that reflects lack of knowledge of what is going on in the negotiations. but my point is, you shouldn't be surprised that there are going to be objections, protests, rumors, conspiracy theories, flil aggravation around a trade deal. you've been around long enough, chuck. that's true in malaysia, that's true in tokyo, it's true in seoul. it's true in the united states of america. and it's true in the democratic party.
11:04 pm
so i continue to strongly believe, however, that this is going to be the right thing to do creating jobs, creating businesses, expanding the opportunities for the united states and it's going to be good for countries like malaysia that have been growing rapidly but are interested in making that next leap to the higher value s a if he cans of the supply chain that can really boost income growth and development. >> i would just like to echo what president obama said. emphatically in no uncertain terms. we went to the tpp on our own accord. i can attest to our commitment towards free trade as a principle and philosophy because we have entered into 13
11:05 pm
agreements. we also understand the benefits of free trade, those grow things. but there are some losers in the process. there's winners and losers. but overall, the benefit, i think, is important for us to show that the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. the underpinning of the free trade agreement would be acceptance by the people. we've commitmented to that process. and we also present it to parliament. we are working around the sensitivities and challenges which i alluded to in my discussions with president obama. he fully understands our domestic sensitivities and we
11:06 pm
will sit down and try to iron this out with the intention of trying to work out a deal in the near future. >> from the fuamatu-ma'a-afala lags time, can i call on obama. >> mr. president, how do you see major efforts in ability in getting multinationals support and efforts for the missing 370 rescue mission. and if you can elaborate on the visa, we will regress. >> well, i know personally, because i've been in consultation with my team and all the assets that we have available that the malaysian government is working tirelessly
11:07 pm
to recover the aircraft and investigate exactly what happened. and i can't speak for all the countries in the region, but i can say that the united states and other partners have found the malaysian government eager for assistance, have been fully forth coming with us in terms of the information that they have, and, you know, this is a joint effort. it's not easy. we don't know all the details of what happened, but if, in fact, the plane went down in the ocean in this part of the world, that is a big place. and it is a very challenging effort and laborious effort
11:08 pm
that's going to take quite some time. i completely understand the heart aches the families are going through and wants answers. i think it's very important and i said to the prime minister there should be full transparency in terms of what we know what we don't know, how the process is proceeding, did you i can tell you the united states is absolutely committed in providing whatever resources and assets that we can and that the malaysian government has been very welcoming of of that assistance. on the visa waiver program, the way it works in the united states, we've got a very cloer seat set of laws and conditions on what country qualifies for the visa waiver program. and the prime minister raised this issue with me and my team is prepared to work with the
11:09 pm
malaysian government to go through the various steps. typically it takes some time. the reporting of lost and stolen passports, terrorist watch list, all those pieces are in place before it's facilitated. but given the growing and expanding trade that exists and i want to make sure we can start down a path. it may take a little bit of i'm time. burr we welcome the opportunity to engage with the government on this issue. >> last question. >> sorry, the last question,
11:10 pm
major garret of cbs news. >> thank you. mr. president, you said in your press conference in seoul, you expressed your frustration with the narrative that military force is the best response to difficult foreign policy challenges. i invite you to expand on that if you want to. but i'm more curious about what you said right after that. there are many tools in the american tool box to advance foreign policy interests. as you know, one of those tools is for america to use her prestigious to speak out on behalf of human rights, racial tolerance, political accountability and free speech. as you well know, mr. president, those issues are up for grabs in malaysia right now and best symbolized by the precarious legal position of the opposition in this country. can you explain, sir, why you said nothing about these issues here in malaysia, why you will not meet with mr. ibrahim and how it's possible for the united states government to advance these interests of political reform when it won't use a nonmilitary tools in the tool box you described in seoul.
11:11 pm
and mr. prime minister, have you made any commitments to the united states government about your efforts in the future to address the issue of political reform here in malaysia? thank you. >> first of all, major, i think it's important to note that there's not a meeting i have around the world where issues of freedom of the press, human rights, civil liberties aren't prominent on the agenda. and that includes my meeting with prime minister najid. when you say these issues are up for grabs in malaysia, i think that implies a judgment about what's happening here in malaysia that may not fully respect the progress that's been
11:12 pm
made by prime minister najib. the fact that i haven't met with him myself is not indicative of our lack of concern given that there are a lot of people that i don't meet with and opposition leaders i don't meet with. and that doesn't mean i not concerned about them. but what i have shared with the prime minister is the firm belief that societies that respect rule of law, that respect freedom of speech, that respect the right of opposition to oppose even when it drives you crazy, even when it's inconvenient, the respect for freedom of assembly, the respect for people of different races and different faiths and different political philosophies, that those value are at the core of who the u.s. is, but also, i think, are a
11:13 pm
pretty good gauge of whether a society is going to be successful in the 21st century or not. and, you know, i think the prime minister is the first to acknowledge that malaysia's still got some work to do, just like the united states, by the way, has some work to do on these issues. human rights watch probably has a list of things they think we should be doing as a government. and, you know, i am going to be constantly committed to making sure that these issues get raised in a constructive way. and, you know, prime minister najib came in as a reformer and one who's committed to it. and, you know, i'm going to continue to encourage him as a friend and a partner to make sure that we're making progress on that front.
11:14 pm
>> president obama and i are both equally concerned about civil liberties. as a principle. and as you know, when i came to office 2009, i introduced a slew of reforms, which include a very major undertaking on our part, which is to apolish the detention in the isa and other countries have not done so, but malaysia has taken the lead in doing so. we've also introduced the peaceful assembly act. and the right to protest, a right to assemble. and within the spirit, it would be fair to say that this is the larnlest -- or the biggest reform in terms of civil liberties in malaysian history. so in that, i think you should not underestimate or diminish whatever we have done i want to
11:15 pm
put it on record, it's not about the government against him. it's an action taken by an individual who happens to be his former employee who's taken up this case against him, a complainant. and under the eyes of a law, if you're a small man or a big man, you have equal justice. i think you believe in that principle. so now the matter is before the courts. it's not right for me to comment anything more than that. but be assured that malaysia is committed to the rule of law, to the independent of judiciary and the civil liberties. as the president said, there's more work to be done, but society has got to be prepared for it, for change. because what is important is the end result. and the end result as the prime minister of this country, i'm committed to ensure peace, stability and harmony. that is the most important
11:16 pm
thing. and people must respect that. because there are sensitives either side. sensitives relating to minorities and majority as well. so we have to manage that and that's exactly what malaysia has done. and because of that, we are relatively peaceful, harmonious nation. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> that completes the press conference this evening. >> you've been watching cnn's live coverage of a joint news conference between president obama and prime minister najib of malaysia, about 45 minutes they spent making comments and taking questions regarding the continuing their closer ties with security and trade. they talked about that. they also took questions, of
11:17 pm
course, on the missing airliner, mh-370, president obama pledging continuing support by the united states, offering his condolences and said the two leaders discussed lessons learned from the ire liner mystery but didn't elaborate. mr. obama also taking questions on the big question of ukraine sanctions, as well as the alleged racist comments made by an nba owner of the l.a. clippers. mr. obama seeming to take his time with that, giving a thoughtful response to that. let's talk now with cnn's jim acosta. the wide ranging questions that they addressed during this news conference. jim? >> absolutely, natalie. that is right. and just to start off with flight 370, because it is sort of the big news that overwhelming everything here in malaysia. it was interesting to hear the president at one point say that
11:18 pm
he believes the malaysian government has been fully fort coming with us, meaning the united states, about what the malaysians know about the whereabouts of that plane, the investigation into the disappearance of that plane. and so it was interesting to hear the president sort of defend the malaysian government in that regard. and he went on to say that, you know, the ocean is a big place. that is a big place, he said at one point. it shouldn't too surprising the plane has not been recovered at this point. you mentioned the controversy regarding the l.a. clippers owner donald sterling. it was interesting that the president was asked about this. but natalie, you know, when we're out on the road with the president and domestic issues come up, you know, he's going to be asked about it. and that was the case here. very interesting comments from the president. he said these comments speak for themselves. and at what point he said, when ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don't have to do anything, you just have to let them talk.
11:19 pm
that's what happened here. i thought that was a fascinating moment during this news conference. also he was asked about ukraine. not surprising. it's sort of the question that follows him wherever he goes. and he said he accused russia of not lifting a finger to help when it comes to resolving deescalating fences in eastern ukraine. and he also said the world needs to be united or europe and the west need to be united when it comes to sector ral sanctions giving an explanation as to why they're perhaps not ready to go with sanctioning sectors of the russian economy, only going to target individuals at this point. the president offering a defense there. and as we were talking about this, natalie, before the press conference began. this transpacific trade partnership deal that the president would like to get passed by the congress and agreed to by these asian partners such as malaysia, that came up during this press conference at one point. we haven't heard the if the say this too much. he says he has his own protests
11:20 pm
coming from people at home. in his own party when it comes to this deal, when talking about how there have been some protests here in malaysia. so wade ranging news conference. it's pretty customary, natalie, in these sorts of circumstances when he comes out after meeting with a prime minister or president, it's only a two and two, as we call it. two questions for the host country press, two questions for the american press. but as you can see from the news conference, they can cover a lot of ground, natalie. >> they certainly can. and back to the alleged racist comment by the nba team, owner for the l.a. clippers. he said he had confidence the commissioner would investigate and the commissioner has announced he will investigate that. and mh-370, he said in should be full transparency to what they do know and what they do not know. because everyone knows malaysia has made some misstatements and some missteps during that investigation. so this has been part of his asia pivot tour. he is heading where next?
11:21 pm
and when does he leave? >> we're going to spend one more night in kuala lumpur, natalie, and then the president heads off to the philippines. that will be the last stop of this asia pivot tour. that will also provide news as the president is expected to announce a security deal with the philippine government. a base-sharing agreement that will allow the united states military to use the base there in the philippines on a more widespread basis for naval warsh warships, for aviation assets that the united states would like to use in this pacific region. and it sort of goes back to this thing that we' been talking about all along with respect to this trip, natalie. and that is one of the goals of the obama administration is to bolster the u.s. presence over here, not only because hey, it's nice for the americans to have a big presence in asia, but also because there is the sense enside the obama administration that there is a need to counter china's rise in this region.
11:22 pm
the president feels very strongly and his officials have said this, that the united states wants to remain a pacific power. and with china on the rise and with an ever growing presence over here, the obama administration strongly believes the u.s. has to have a beg role here as well. not as a china containment strategy, this white house says, and this president says, but to certainly counter that influence in this region. and we're going to hear some of that as the president heads to the philippines next, then it's back to washington. a big week coming up in the coming days. angela merkel will be visiting the president at the white house later on in the week. he's not going to get too much of a break once he gets back from that part of the world, natalie. >> doesn't seem like it. we will see you again and the president again in the philippines. we thank you. jim acosta live for us in kuala lumpur. to our viewers in the u.s., we'll now take you to anthony bou bourdain and "parts unknown" already in progress.

ah, yes, let's talk about sicily. it was a unique moment in my personal television history. not one that i'm proud of. how can you screw up a show in sicily? it's incredible on its face that such a thing is possible. you have to understand, this was our second sicily show. we made these mistakes before, and you know, i thought that sicily, particularly second time around, would be like an easy, a layup of a show. it's one of the most amazing places on earth. you know the food's great. there is never going to be any shortage of characters in sicily. the architecture is spectacular. everywhere you point your camera, it's beautiful. yet somehow, we managed to make a hash of it.

11:41 pm
one dead cuttlefish deceased octopus, frozen sea urchin after another, splash, splash, splash. each specimen drops among the rocks or along the sea floor to be heroically discovered moments later and proudly shown off to camera like i'm not actually watching as his confederate in the next boat over hurls into the water one after another. i'm no marine biologist but i know dead octopus when i see one. pretty sure they don't drop from the sky and then sink straight to the bottom. >> how many you have? three? okay. i tried to get some -- now. and also some -- small abalone. >> strangely, everyone else pretends to believe the hideous sham unfolding before our eyes, doing their best to ignore the blindingly obvious.
