Peneliti Institute for Development of Economics and Finance (Indef) Ahmad Heri Firdaus mengungkapkan bahwa dampak rambatan dari kebijakan tarif balasan Presiden Amerika Serikat, Donald Trump, adalah lonjakan impor yang berasal dari negara lain akibat sulitnya mengakses pasar Amerika Serikat.

00:00Next, besides strengthening the export trade to the non-US market, the government is asked to be vigilant

00:11about the flood of imports of other countries' products as a hard impost by the US market.

00:16Researcher Dave Ahmad Harry Firdaus stated that the impact of the delay in the refund policy of President Donald Trump

00:24is the surge of imports from other countries as a result of the difficulty in accessing the US market.

00:30Harry explained that the US market will make other countries' export products target the market with a greater demand.

00:37That makes the government have to be ready to face the impact of the delay.

00:42For that, Indef asked the government to prepare a non-tariff barrier scheme,

00:46such as requiring imported products to have Indonesian-language packaging.

00:51And this is to ensure that domestic industrial products are not targeted by other countries' imported products.

00:59To anticipate that, what should we do?

01:01The most relevant thing is how we apply the non-tariff measure,

01:08non-tariff barrier, NTM, DBT, SPS, or others.

01:12That's what we're still weak at.

01:15And it's quite relevant, we want to add it.

01:19But to increase the NTM, it's a bit difficult and easy.

01:24It means we can't discriminate.

01:27So we prohibit dirty goods from entering Indonesia while we still make it ourselves.

01:31We can't do that.

01:32So we can't discriminate.

01:34We have to be smart if we want to make NTM.

01:36But I'm sure we still have a lot of opportunities to apply NTM.

01:42For example, for the policy of labeling, product labels.

01:48If we look at retail stores,

01:55there are still a lot of imported products that don't have the Indonesian language.

02:00If there is a local language obligation, it will also be NTM or DBT for us,

02:08to prevent the speed of import, which is likely to be large.
