Default Carbohydrate Sugars ?!?

Hi,
I'm from Adelaide, Australia and I notice the food labels here all list Carbohydrates and CarboHydrate Sugars.
For example: Sweet Chili Sauce (BiLo brand) per 30ml Serve (Approx. 2 Tspns)

Carbohydrate 21.0g
- Sugars 19.2g

Does any1 know what this means ....Should I be counting the Carbs or Carb Sugars?
If sugars, then a product high in carbs but low in carb sugars is good ?

Can any1 from Oz (pref SA) recommend a Carb Counter book to buy and where from? ..One that has metric values please.

On another note, seeing as i have cut all bread, cereals and grains, would i need some sort of fibre supplement ?

Thanks in advance
