Indian & Chinese buyers are dominating Indoensian coal market since 2nd half of last year and it is seems that, the trend will continue and India & China will be major importers of Indonesian coal for this year.

Due to wet weather in Indoensian, availability of coal was tight against higher  demand, which drive coal price of all types of coal to north.
