China: need 'measured response' to s african tax

摘要

China could employ non-trade measures in response to South Africa's potential chrome ore export tax and may negotiate with other countries holding valuable metals and raw materials, China Market Research (CMR) has said. China may not respond by imposing new duties of its own on South African chrome or ferro-chrome, instead preferring to balance trade with political factors, delegates heard in the keynote speech at the virtual International Chromium Development Association conference today.
