"Over the past year and a half, 15 electronics and related companies have ended their manufacturing operations in Europe. Last October, a request for the European Commission to initiate anti-dumping measures against China, Malaysia, South Korea and Thailand was submitted by the Czech company ‘Tesla Ecimex’ and the Lithuanian company ‘Ekranas’, both of which manufacture cathode-ray tubes. On 11 January this year, it was reported in the Official Journal of the European Union that an anti-dumping investigation had been launched. However, ‘Tesla Ecimex’ has already ceased its activities. In April ‘Ekranas’ stopped. The companies are unable to compete with manufacturers in Southern Asia and Latin America, which receive state support through the implementation of policies favourable to business. In Lithuania, 5 000 employees, including ones in ancillary companies, are losing their jobs. Meanwhile, prospects for the electronics market and the sale of ‘Ekranas’ are positive. I urge the Commission to apply anti-dumping measures more actively and do what it can to aid European manufacturers and honest competition."@en1
