Japan urged China to correct trade practices it believes are unfair, including higher tariffs on photo film and auto parts, in an annual report released Monday.
The 2005 Report on the WTO Inconsistency of Trade Policies by Major Trading Partners, which was adopted at a meeting of a Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry panel, notes 27 cases of Chinese trade policies that Japan deems unfair, including enforcement of antidumping measures.
Specifically, the report accuses China of applying tariff rules on photo film that are different from those it pledged to introduce under the World Trade Organization. It likewise criticizes China for imposing tariffs on auto parts imports as high as those applied on finished cars.
