Trump Tariffs Leave Costly China Supply Question Unanswered

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump's recent flurry of trade deals have given Asian exporters some clarity on tariffs, but missing are key details on how to avoid punitive rates that target China's supply chains. Trump Awards $1.26 Billion Contract to Build Biggest Immigrant Detention Center in US The High Costs of Trump's 'Big Beautiful' New Car Loan Deduction Can This Bridge Ease the Troubled US-Canadian Relationship? Salt Lake City Turns Winter Olympic Bid Into Statewide Bond Boom Trump Administration Sues NYC Over Sanctuary City Policy Trump unveiled tariffs of 20% for Vietnam and 19% for Indonesia and the Philippines, signaling those are the levels the US will likely settle on for most of Southeast Asia, a region that ships $352 billion worth of goods annually to the US. He's also threatened to rocket rates up to 40% for products deemed to be transshipped, or re-routed, through those countries — a move largely directed at curbing Chinese goods circumventing higher US tariffs. But still unclear to manufacturers is how the US will calculate and apply local-content requirements, key to how it will determine what constitutes transshipped goods. Southeast Asian nations are highly reliant on Chinese components and raw materials, and US firms that source from the region would bear the extra tariff damage. That's left companies, investors and economists facing several unanswered questions about Trump's tariffs that appear aimed at squeezing out Chinese content, according to Deborah Elms, head of trade policy at the Hinrich Foundation in Singapore. 'Is that raw materials? All raw materials? Above a certain percentage?' she said. 'How about parts? What about labor or services? What about investment?' In an agreement with Indonesia last week, the White House said the two countries would negotiate 'rules of origin' to ensure a third country wouldn't benefit. The deal with Vietnam earlier this month outlined a higher 40% tariff rate for transshipped goods. And Thai officials, who have yet to secure a deal, detailed that they likely need to boost local content in exports to the US. Missing Details The Trump administration isn't providing much clarity on the matter right now. US officials are still working out details with trading partners and looking at value-based local content requirements, to ensure exports are more than just assembled imported parts, according to a person familiar with the matter, who didn't want to be identified discussing private talks. A senior Trump administration official also said this week that details on the approach to transshipment are expected to be released before Aug. 1, the deadline for when higher US tariffs kick in. Some factories are already adjusting their supply chains to comply with rules that will require more locally-made components in production. Frank Deng, an executive at a Shanghai-based furniture exporter with operations in Vietnam — and which gets about 80% of business from the US — said in an interview his firm is making adjustments as authorities appear to be more strictly enforcing country-of-origin rules. Vietnam has always had specific local content requirements for manufacturers, Deng added, including that a maximum of 30% of the volume of raw materials originates from China, and the value after production in Vietnam must be 40% higher than the imported raw materials. 'We've been struggling to meet all the standards so that we can still stay in the game,' Deng said. 'But I guess that's the only way to survive now.' For most of Southeast Asia, reducing the amount of Chinese-made components in manufacturing will require a complete overhaul of their supply chains. Estimates from Eurasia Group show that Chinese components make up about 60% to 70% of exports from Southeast Asia — primarily industrial inputs that go into manufacturing assembly. About 15% of the region's exports now head to the US, up about four percentage points from 2018. Local Content The US has become increasingly vigilant about China's ability to bypass US trade tariffs and other restrictions through third countries since Trump's first trade war in 2017. Thailand signaled its frustration over the lack of clarity for how much local content is needed in goods exported to the US to avert transshipment rates, but noted it will likely be much higher than a traditional measure of 40%. 'From what we've heard, the required percentage could be significantly higher, perhaps 60%, 70%, or even 80%,' Deputy Prime Minister Pichai Chunhavajira said July 14. 'Emerging countries or new production bases are clearly at a disadvantage,' he said, as their manufacturing capabilities are still at an early stage and must rely on other countries for raw goods. Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia have all taken steps this year to address Trump's concerns, increasing scrutiny of trade that passes through their ports including new rule-of-origin policies that centralize processing and imposing harsh penalties on transshippers. Developing nations may still struggle to enforce Trump's rules or comply with the rules if it means going up against China, their largest trading partner and geopolitical partner. 'The reality is it's not enforceable at all,' said Dan Wang, China director at Eurasia Group. 'Chinese companies have all kinds of ways to get around it and those other countries have no incentive to enforce those measures, or capacity to collect the data and determine local content.' --With assistance from Patpicha Tanakasempipat, Skylar Woodhouse and Nguyen Dieu Tu Uyen.

VinFast Indonesia continues to expand nationwide service workshop network

JAKARTA, INDONESIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 July 2025 - VinFast, the Vietnamese Nasdaq-listed pure-electric vehicle manufacturer, today announced the signing and implementation of strategic cooperation agreements with leading Indonesian service workshop partners. This strategic move significantly expands VinFast's after-sales network, demonstrating its commitment to providing maximum convenience for customers transitioning to electric vehicles. Mr. Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto – CEO of VinFast Indonesia (fourth from the left) – with representatives of new service workshop partners at the MOU signing ceremony held during GIIAS 2025. During the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2025, open to the public from July 24 to August 3, VinFast signed Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with three new strategic partners: Nawilis, Warna Warni Ban, and Raperind. These partnerships further strengthen the Company's continuously expanding genuine service network in Indonesia. Specifically, 9 Nawilis workshops will become VinFast's authorized genuine service centers, all classified as Level 1 workshops. Other partners, Warna Warni Ban (5 Level 1 workshops) and Raperind (5 workshops, including 2 Level 1 and 3 Level 2 workshops), also join the system, enriching VinFast's service network across Indonesia. These third-party authorized service workshops will be clearly categorized by their scope of expertise, ensuring Indonesian customers consistently receive appropriate and professional services. Level 1 workshops are authorized to provide a full range of essential services, including maintenance, basic repairs, basic warranty handling, software updates, and diagnostic checks for VinFast EVs. Meanwhile, Level 2 workshops will focus on core services such as periodic maintenance, basic repairs, and basic warranty services, ensuring VinFast customers receive optimal service at every touchpoint throughout their EV ownership journey. These new partners complement the list of strategic partners with whom VinFast previously finalized agreements, including Otoklix and Bengkel BOS. Otoklix has added 150 workshops to VinFast's network, comprising 41 Level 1 and 109 Level 2 workshops. Bengkel BOS has also contributed 12 Level 1 workshops. As a result, VinFast has built a nationwide network of 181 authorized genuine service workshops, including a total of 69 Level 1 and 112 Level 2 workshops. All Indonesian service workshops will meet VinFast's stringent standards for facilities, machinery and equipment, and personnel qualifications. These partners will also provide genuine services and parts for VinFast car owners, contributing to maximum convenience and peace of mind. Throughout the cooperation, VinFast will actively support personnel training and technical consultation to help partners rapidly expand their authorized service workshop systems, especially as VinFast's product range in Indonesia continues to grow, and the number of vehicle deliveries is expected to increase significantly. Mr. Chrisdavin Teng, Director of Warna Warni Ban commented, 'We are thrilled to become an authorized provider of genuine services for VinFast electric vehicles in Indonesia. We believe in VinFast's growth potential in Southeast Asia. Together, VinFast and we aim to provide consumers with excellent experiences and drive the continuously growing electric vehicle market.' Mr. Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto, CEO of VinFast Indonesia, shared, 'The continuous expansion of our service workshop network once again reaffirms VinFast's strong and consistent commitment to providing comprehensive, convenient, and high-quality after-sales service, ensuring Indonesian customers can confidently enjoy the superior value of the VinFast electric vehicle experience. This strategy not only helps us expand our customer reach but also optimizes operational efficiency during our expansion in Indonesia.' VinFast is strengthening its after-sales network as its product range in the Indonesian market continues to expand. In just over a year since officially entering the market, VinFast has rapidly introduced a diverse product range across the most popular segments in Indonesia, from the VF 3, VF 5, VF 6 to the VF e34, and most recently, the VF 7. These products are all offered with exceptionally attractive sales and after-sales policies, such as free charging at V-GREEN charging stations and 0% interest financing support for vehicle purchases. Simultaneously, VinFast is continuously fostering cooperation with dealership and banking partners, making it easier for customers to access, own, and use green transportation./.
