TAIPEI (CNA) — Authorities in South Korea have ruled that Taiwanese petrochemical
firms have caused damage to its industry by dumping products, while authorities in Malaysia have also determined damage caused by Taiwanese stainless steel exporters that sold their products at unfairly low prices, Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) said Saturday.
The MOEA said the Korea Trade Commission (KTC) has suggested an 8.68 percent anti-dumping tariff to be imposed on Taiwan’s polyethylene terephthalate or polyester (PET) film makers after an investigation.
PET film is an ingredient of a wide range of products including packaging materials, solar energy panels, adhesive tape and liquid crystal displays, according to the MOEA.
