RI and Australia to work together on dumping

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

Indonesia and Australia have agreed to strengthen anti-dumping
cooperation, head of the Indonesian Committee on Anti-Dumping
(KADI), Rizal Arwin, said in Canberra on Friday.

"Australia has agreed to help train Indonesian anti-dumping
investigators and share information with them," Arwin said as
quoted by Antara.

KADI members are in Canberra for a three-day visit to study
ways of improving cooperation between the two countries.

They have held a series of talks with Australia's Department
of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) as well as customs officials.

Arwin said both countries had also agreed to improve their
cooperation on the exchange of information on subsidy and product
protection.

He noted that Indonesia had been facing difficulties in
finding people qualified to investigate alleged dumping
practices.

DFAT products allegedly exported below market prices listed on
its website.

The list includes Indonesian cement, paper, coffee and
computer companies.
