The Ministry of Commerce of China announced on Wednesday it had terminated anti-dumping investigations involving capryl alcohol imported from several foreign countries.

The decision to terminate the investigation took effect on Wednesday.

A bulletin issued by the ministry says that it launched an anti-dumping investigation into capryl alcohol imports from the Republic of Korea, Saudi Arabia, Japan, the European Union and Indonesia on Sept. 15, 2005. The ministry says that the capryl alcohol imports did not do any fundamental harm to the domestic capryl alcohol industry.
