US imposes anti-dumping duties on Thai shrimp

The Nation May 30, 2013 12:57 pm
Thailand and four other countries will be subjected to anti-dumping tariffs on shrimp exports to the United States.
The US Department of Commerce (DOC) announced on May 29 that it will impose anti-subsidy tariffs of nearly 63 per cent on frozen shrimp imported from China, India, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.

Under the preliminary decision, it will impose the 2.09 per cent countervailing duties on products imported from Thailand, from China (5.76 per cent), from Vietnam (7.05 per cent), from India (11.32 per cent) and from Malaysia (62.74 per cent).

In 2012, five Asian countries exported around 258,000 tonnes of frozen shrimp worth US$2.3 billion to the US.

I think you will find that the senate desides on these matters not the president. The senate is republican . The truth is that they are both 3rd world countries with 3rd world mentalities. Nobody is worse than the thai's at restrictive practices. Just look at the rates of tax on imports . They need to wake up & smell the coffee because there are going to be alot following the Thai lead & so exports from Thailand are going to be hit badly.

The EC & USA are not that far away from total agreement on free trade & that will impact on Thailand Massively
