The investigation is to follow Australian's Wilson Transformer Company application to protect the local industry from anti-dumping.

HA NOI(Biz Hub) — Viet Nam is one of several Asian countries being investigated by Australia for alleged dumping of power transformers. The other countries include China, Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia and Thailand.

Australia's anti-dumping commissioner said an investigation was held after two power transformers were allegedly offered for sale below their normal value.

In Viet Nam, the Trade Defence Measures Office under the Ministry of Industry and Trade said it was the first case of alleged dumping between the two countries.

Representative of the global trade atlas www.gtis.com in Ha Noi told Biz Hub that  the value of the two imported transformers was over US$14 million in 2012.

The commissioner said interested parties were invited to lodge submissions concerning the dumping no later than September 9 on the website at http://www.adcommission.gov.au. — VNS
