SUMMARY:Grand Launching of Indonesia’s Non-Tariff Measures (NTMs) Databas
 e: “Enhancing Industrial Competitiveness\, Boosting Export Performance
 ”
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Indonesia was among the first countries in Asia where comprehen
 sive NTM data on all applicable regulations was collected. Together with t
 he government of Indonesia\, ERIA and UNCTAD collected NTMs for all ten AS
 EAN countries in 2015 and updated the data in 2018. The data has been publ
 ished in a systematic manner and is easily accessible for policy makers\, 
 researchers and traders in  TrainsOnline.  \n\nThe World Bank office in I
 ndonesia together with the Government of Indonesia updated this informatio
 n and widened the time coverage to include regulations that were in force 
 before 2015 but no longer applicable in 2015. This makes the database a tr
 uly “panel data series” which allows researchers to assess the impact 
 of NTMs at a much more detailed level than cross-section data do. The Worl
 d Bank uses the established  NTM Classification and NTM data collection ap
 proach and contributes greatly to the transparency in trade effort.  A use
 r manual describes the NTM data for Indonesia in detail. This updated data
  for Indonesia is available in  TrainsOnline \n\nThe continuous support a
 nd commitment of the Government of Indonesia is remarkable and a role mode
 l in supporting transparency. Transparency supports the importers and expo
 rters and contributes to attracting investments. Furthermore\, the data is
  useful also for internal and external regulatory cooperation and negotiat
 ion processes.  \n\nVideo keynote message by Ms. Miho Shirotori (Acting D
 irector\, Division of International Trade and Commodities\, UNCTAD) is ava
 ilable in the recording part of the meeting. \nhttps://trainsonline.uncta
