Sunda International has laid off about 350 employees due to the shutdown of two manufacturing plants.
The company attributes this to the smuggling of substandard baby diapers into the country, estimating that 300 million pieces are smuggled in annually.
The company met with the Trade and Industry Committee of Parliament, requesting action to address the issue.
According to Managing Director of Sunda International, Wei Ye, a policy framework must be enacted to declare such practices as national security and health threats. "Although the FDA, GSA and Customs Division have supported us a lot, this is just a drop of water because they are everywhere.
