Chinese shoe-makers will continue to fight the European Union's (EU) dumping
claim, after the EU revealed it is likely to implement punitive quota-based
measures on Chinese leather shoes.
The vow to battle on came from Wu
Zhenchang, president of a Guangzhou-based shoe-making company and leader of a
shoe-makers coalition.

Under the European Commission's
draft final anti-dumping charges, importers will be allowed to buy 140 million
pairs of leather shoes each year from China and 95 million from Viet
Nam.
The figures are about 80 per cent of the EU's current imports from
the two countries.
