RI to challenge EU’s anti-dumping duties

Indonesian biofuel producers plan to appeal the EU’s final ruling on a biofuel dumping case that resulted in significant punitive duties on their exports.

Togar Sitanggang, a member of the Indonesian Biofuel Producers Association (Aprobi), said Indonesian biofuel producers would lodge an appeal with the European Court of Justice once they confirmed the ruling.

“We will see on Nov. 28 whether the EU accepts our arguments. If they don’t, we will take the case to the court and perhaps the World Trade Organization (WTO), too,” said Togar, who is also a senior manager at biofuel maker Musim Mas.
