Indonesian exports are generally low sulphur and ash and consequently will stand to benefit from the ban.

The market says that, thousand of coal miners are still waiting to receive ET-Batubara from ministry of commerce before 30 September 2014 and starting from 1st October no miners or traders will not be allowed to export coal without ET-Batubara.
