Platforms·12 min read·11 figures

Indonesia imposes a safeguard duty on polyethylene tarpaulins at 13,400 rupiah per kilogram in stage one, falling to 11,458 by stage three. At 17,881 rupiah to the dollar that is $0.75 a kilo, or $3.60 on a 4x6 metre tarpaulin. A Chinese summary states the same figure per tonne.
