Pursuant to Article  7.2 and Article  12.1(b) of the WTO Agreement on Safeguards, The Government 
of the Republic of Indonesia, hereby notifies the Committee on Safeguards the investigation findings 
concerning the extension of a safeguard measure against the importation of Fabrics . 
1. Evidence that the safeguard measure continues to be neces sary to prevent or  remedy 
serious injury or threat thereof and that the industry concerned is adjustin g 
The Government of the Republic of Indonesia  initiated an investigation on the extension of a 
safeguard measure on 28  April 2022 ( G/SG/N/6/IDN/31/Suppl.1  - G/SG/N/14/IDN/3 ). The scope of 
the investigation was to decide whether the safeguard measure should be extended beyond 
8 November  2022.  
To determine whether the safeguard measure continues to be necessary to prevent or remedy 
serious injury or threat th ereof and whether the industry is adjusting, the Investigating Authority 
(Komite Pengamanan Perdagangan Indonesia /KPPI) undertook a comprehensive analysis of a broad 
set of data from multiple sources: the evidence provided by the Applicant's member industr ies in 
their questionnaire replies and written submissions, the information provided by interested parties 
(users, importers, exporting producers and exporting country governments) in their written 
submissions, as well as information available to the Inves tigating Authority including statistical 
databases and relevant publications.  
1.1.  Economic performance of the Applicant  
To assess the economic performance of the Applicant, the developments of imports, and, other 
relevant data included in its assessment, the Investigating Authority assessed the data for the period 
2019-2021 ('the investigation period'). The Applicant's perf ormance indicators related to all products 
concerned in the safeguard investigation are presented in the table below, whereas the indicators 
related to each product category are given in Annex -I. G/SG/N/8/IDN/23/Suppl.1 • G/SG/N/10/IDN/23/Suppl.2

During the investigation period  2019-2021, domestic sales experienced a downward trend of  7.15%. 
Along with the downward trend in domestic sales, the Applicant's production also experienced a 
downward trend of 7.98%. This is because, in 2021, the Applicant has not been able to inc rease 
their production and domestic sales compared to 2019. Meanwhile, the domestic market is still 
flooded with imported goods.  
In 2020, domestic sales decreased significantly by 16.36% compared to 2019, from 100 index points 
to 83.64 index points. In 2021, domestic sales increased by 3.08% compared to 2020, from 
83.64  index points to 86.22 index points in the same period.  
Production experienced a significant decline in 2020 by 17.86% compared to 2019, from 100 index 
points to 82.14 index points. Then i n 2021, production continues to increase in line with the increase 
in national consumption, production is seen to increase by 3.10% compared to 2020, from 82.14 
index points to 84.68 index points.  
During the investigation period 2019 -2021, Applicant's inve ntory experienced an increasing trend of 
2.97%. This is due to the downward trend in domestic sales and production. In 2020, Applicant's 
inventory increased by 7.96% compared to 2019, from 100 index points to 107.96 index points. 
Then in 2021, Applicant's inventory decreased by 1.79% compared to 2020, from 107.96 points to 
106.03 index points.

2021, the number of employees increased by 1.05% compared to 2020, from 90 index points to 
90.94 index points. This is due to an increase in the Applicant's production by 3.10%.  
During the investigation period 2019 -2021, the productivity of the Applicant experienced a 
downward trend of 3.50%. This was due to the decline in the trend of production volume by 7.98% 
which was grea ter than the decline in the trend of the employee, which was 4.64%. In 2020 the 
productivity of the applicant has decreased by 8.73% compared to 2019, and in 2021 the 
productivity of the Applicant has increased by 2.02% compared to 2020.

financial loss in 2020 compared to 2019 as a result of a decline in domestic sales, from a profit of 
100 index points to a financial loss of (306.35) index points. Then, in 2021 the loss increased by 
38.52% compared to 2020, from (306.35) ind ex points to (424.35) index points. This happened 
because the Applicant sold their products at prices below production costs due to pressure on the 
selling prices of imported products. Thus, during the 2019 -2021 period, the Applicant experienced 
an increas e in financial losses with a trend of 99.86%

increased again by 0.75% compared to 2020, from 76.19 index points to 76.76 index points.  
During the investigation period 2019 -2021, the market share of the Applicant has increased with a 
trend of 3.72%. Although the trend of the Applicant's market share in that period has i ncreased, in 
2021 the Applicant's market share has decreased by 3.08% compared to 2020, from 110.99 index 
points to 107.57 index points. So we can conclude that the domestic market share was eroded by 
imported goods in the same year.  G/SG/N/8/IDN/23/Suppl.1 • G/SG/N/10/IDN/23/Suppl.2

  The purpose of the ext ension of the safeguard measure is to fulfill the Applicant's commitment to 
completing their structural adjustment program as well as recovering the serious injury. Even though 
the trend of Applicant's market share is increasing, the Applicant is still exp eriencing serious injury. 
The extension of the safeguard measure is necessary so that the Applicant can fulfill the 
commitments to complete the structural adjustment program and improve the performance of their 
industries.  
The Applicant's performance indi cators related to all products concerned in the safeguard 
investigation are presented in the table above, whereas the indicators related to each category are 
given in Annex -I.

During the investigation period 2019 -2021, there was a price undercutting where the selling price 
per unit of imports was below the selling price per unit of the Applicant. Thus, making it difficult for 
the Applicant to increase domestic sales and make a profit

During the 2019 -2021 period, the production cost per unit of the Applicant increased with a trend of 
18.35% along with the increase in production costs per unit of the applicant, in that period. The 
selling price per unit of the  applicant also increased with a trend of 17.73%.  
Based on the table above, in 2020 and 2021 price suppression occurred because the production cost 
per unit of the Applicant is always above the selling price per unit of the Applicant, while the highest 
margin loss occur in 2021, namely (1.14) index points. This is an attempt by the Applicant to 
compete with the import price. This causes the Petitioner to continue to suffer serious injury.  
1.2.  Evidence that the industry concerned is adjusting  
The Applicant has fulfilled some of its structural adjustment commitment programs in order to be 
able to compete with imported goods. However, due to the large presence of imported fabrics in the 
market, the Applicant was not able to optimally fulfill their structural adjus tment programs and, 
therefore, the recovery of the Applicant's injury was delayed. The realization of the structural 
adjustment program for each Fabric categories that has been completed by the Applicant is as 
follows:  
 
1 Applicant’s selling price per unit in 2019 as a base year for indexing Import’s Price per Unit and Price 
Undercutting.  
2 Applicant’s selling price per unit in 2019 as a base year for indexing Applicant’s cost of production per 
unit, Applicant’ profit margin per unit, and import’s price.  G/SG/N/8/IDN/23/Suppl.1 • G/SG/N/10/IDN/23/Suppl.2

As shown in the table above, the import volume of the Subject Good during the investigation period 
experienced a downward trend of 21.56%. The downward trend in the import volume of the Subject 
Good during the 2019 -2021 period occurred due to the decline in the volume of imports referred to 
in 2020 by 42.58%. This shows that the imposition of the definitive safeguard measure which has 
been in effect since 9  November  2019 is very effective. However, in 2021 the import volume of the 
Subject Good increased by 7.16% compared t o 2020 from 249,828 tons to 267,704 tons.

period experienced a downward trend of 14.92%. The downward trend in the imports  relative to 
national production during the 2019 -2020 investigation period occurred due to the decline in th e 
volume of imports in 2020 by 42.58 % compared to the previous year , as a result of the effective 
imposition of the definitive safeguard measure  which has been in effect since 9 November  2019.

10. If the notification relates only to a finding of serious injury or threat thereof, and  
does not relate to a decision to apply or extend a safeguard measure.  
Pursuant to Article  7.2 and Article  12.1(b) of the WTO Agreement on Safeguards, The Government 
of the Republic of Indonesia, hereby notifies on the investigation findings concerning the extension 
of safeguard measures against the importation of Fabrics. This notification is only made for the 
findings of the investigation. Once the decision to extend the safeguard measure is made, it will be 
notified u nder Article  12.1(c) of the Agreement on Safeguards.  
11. Information relating to the extension of a safeguard measure  
11.1.  Evidence that the industry concerned is adjusting and that the safeguard measure 
continues to be necessary to prevent or remedy serious injur y. 
Although the definitive safeguard measure has been imposed on the Subject Good, the fact is that 
the imports are still increasing both in absolute and relative terms in 2021 and the volume of imports 
will increase significantly if the safeguard measure is not extended.  
In addition, the Applicant's performance data shows a serious injury as evidenced by a downward 
trend in several performance indicators of the Applicant, such as production, domestic sales, G/SG/N/8/IDN/23/Suppl.1 • G/SG/N/10/IDN/23/Suppl.2  
 
- 9 - 
 
  productivity, utilization capacity, and employmen t, as well as an increase in inventories and financial 
losses. If the safeguard measure is not extended, the Applicant's serious injury will continue to occur 
and may even lead to bankruptcy. There is a causal link between the serious injury suffered by th e 
Applicant as a result of the increase in the number of imports of the Subject Good and not caused 
by other factors.  
The Applicant has completed some of the structural adjustment programs, however, the Applicant 
still needs additional time to complete the  programs. If the safeguard measure is not extended, the 
Applicant will not be able to complete the structural adjustment program and will be difficult in 
competing with imported goods.  
11.2.  Reference to the WTO document that notified the initial application of the measure.  
Pursuant to Article  12.4 of the WTO Agreement on Safeguards, on 13  November  2019, The 
Government of the Republic of Indonesia  notified the Committee on Safeguards regarding the 
imposition of a provisional safeguard measure on th e imports of Fabrics on 9  November  2019 
(G/SG/N/7/IDN/2/Suppl.1  - G/SG/N/11/IDN/18/Suppl.1).  
Pursuant to Article  12.1(c) of the WTO Agreement on Safeguards, on 3  June 2020 The Government 
of the Republic of Indonesia  notified the Committee on Safeguards reg arding the decision to impose 
a safeguard measure on the imports of Fabrics on 27  May 2020 (G/SG/N/10/IDN/23/Suppl.1  - 
G/SG/N/11/IDN/18/Suppl.2).  
11.3.  Duration of the measure from initial application till the date at which it will be 
extended  
The duration of th e provisional safeguard measure was 200 days from 9  November  2019 until 
26 May 2020 and the initial definitive safeguard measure was imposed from 27  May 2020 until 
8 November  2022. The extension of the safeguard measure is proposed to be imposed for 3 years, 
until 8  November  2025.  
11.4.  Precise description of the measure in place prior to the date of extension
