Australia Withdraws Charges over Toilet Paper Dumping
18/01/2010 12:00
TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta:Australia has withdrawn charges over Indonesia's toilet paper dumping. “This is because the Australian domestic industry was not proven to be damaged by the Indonesian product,” the Trade Ministry’s director in charge of Trade Security, Ernawati, told Tempo on Wednesday (13/1).
According to Erna, the decision becomes effective as of January 12, 2010. Earlier, five Australian companies submitted a dumping petition to Indonesia since 2008. The dumping charge was directed to three Indonesian toilet paper producers, namely PT Lontar Papyrus, PT Pindo Deli and PT Univerus, which are the subsidiaries of PT Sinarmas.
During the investigation period, a 33 to 38 percent Temporary Anti Dumping Duty (BMADS) was imposed on Indonesia’s toilet paper exports. The duties were imposed as of January 2009.
“So we can ask for a refund if during the investigation period Indonesia exported toilet paper using BMADS,” Erna said. Australia also withdrew charges on paper dumping in China. “We hope that with the cancellation, there will be no such new initiatives,” Erna said.
