The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) has asked the Bureau of Customs to
disclose the records on cement importations from Taiwan and Japan to determine
if local cement manufacturers have a case against the two countries for dumping
cement into the Philippines.

The Bureau of Import Services (BIS), an agency attached to the DTI and which is
in charge of dumping complaints, said it has begun verifying the information
presented by the Philippine Cement Manufacturers Corp. (Philcemcor) to
determine if a case could be filed against Taiwan and Japan.

The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) has started reviewing proof of
