Abstract
The paper argues that, in many cases, anti-dumping duty imposed on imports may not be justifiable and that it can be manipulated to protect domestic producer?s interests. There are two major reasons explaining this phenomenon. The first is linked to the methodology in determining a dumper and material injury. The definition of a predator provided by the law deviates from the way a predator is defined in practice. Secondly, the interests and welfare of intermediate users and consumers are being ignored in the process of determining anti-dumping duty. These two issues of concern are deliberated and analysed in the context of the Malaysian anti-dumping law and duty determination process.
