The merchandise under review is currently classified under subheadings 
8482.20.00, 8482.91.00, 8482.99.15, 8482.99.45, 8483.20.40, 8483.20.80,

Recission of 1998-99 Antidumping Duty Administrative Review

    On July 29, 1999, in response to a request by Daewoo-MGM Rt., the 
Department published a Notice of Initiation of Antidumping and 
Countervailing Administrative Reviews (64 FR 41075). Daewoo-MGM Rt. was 
the only party which requested a review. On March 20, 2000, Daewoo-MGM 
Rt. withdrew its request for review. We are therefore rescinding this 
review in its entirety in accordance with 19 U.S.C. 1675(a)(1) of the 
Act and Sec. 351.213(d)(1) of our regulations.
    The recission of this review does not affect the reclassification 
of the Republic of Hungary to market economy status for antidumping 
purposes (see Decision Memorandum from Joseph A. Spetrini to Robert S. 
LaRussa on Market vs. Non-Market Economy Analysis of the Republic of 
Hungary, dated February 23, 2000). This notice is published in 
accordance with 19 U.S.C. 1677(f) and Sec. 351.213(d)(4) of our 
regulations.

    Dated: May 26, 2000.
Troy H. Cribb,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.
