However, these measures have yet to yield noticeable impact on domestic supply or pricing dynamics. Additionally, rising labor costs coupled with reduced yields have hindered further growth prospects over recent years; therefore low-cost imports continue to account for the bulk of total consumption requirements by end-users throughout Indonesia textiles industry - particularly when it comes to higher grade products originating from countries like China India Pakistan Vietnam etc.
