Malaysia's Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) has announced that it has decided to launch an antidumping (AD) duty investigation regarding steel
wire rod imports from

China,
Indonesia, South Korea and

Following a petition lodged by the domestic
wire rod producer Amsteel Mills Sdn. Bhd., alleging that the goods in question from the abovementioned countries are dumped and causing material injury for the Malaysian domestic industry, the ministry decided that there is sufficient evidence to launch an antidumping duty investigation.
The ministry requested all the interested parties to notify their views in writing within 40 days of the publication of the notice.
The goods subject to investigation are currently classified under Harmonized System Code Numbers 7213.10.000, 7213.20.000,7213.91.000 and 7213.99.000.
