What are the most sought after type of wood in Australia?

Q. I reside in a country in Asia which is rich in its natural revenue and I have a wood manufacturing business. I'm looking to expand it to Australia via exportation and I need to know what the market demands nowadays in Australia - for furniture, building, whatever it is - I heard that the most sought after right now is Red Oak for flooring is that right? What other type of wood is popular over there?

And any legal requirements, unwritten rules among manufacturer/exporter, ANY info would be very much appreciated! :)
Thank you

A. Have a look at companies like Bunnings and Colli they are builders merchants that stock timber.

Jarra is popular in western Australia but WA is also the only place on earth it grows so unless you can sell ice to eskimos..

A. the Aussies have a problem with termites so any high quality hard wood might be useful. There is an abundance of Eucalyptus trees in Austrailia but I don't think they are used for flooring.
Other hardwoods could as hickory, cypress, chestnut, walnut, ash, teak, mahagony.
I presume if you are in Asia you have access to teak & mahagony.
Beware of the Asian Long Horn Beetle. It comes from Asia & has been killing a lot of trees in part of Noth America.
