A number of Indonesian buyers have expressed the lack of interest in making replenishment from the import market at the moment amid the availability of highly competitive local cargoes. 

“The domestic traders are pushing cargoes out very aggressively. Buyers might find it less encouraging in procuring material from overseas sellers. The sentiment is very sluggish,” a market source commented.
