Abstract

This research aims to see how government policies regarding the standardization of tin with Sn 99.9% content affect the condition of Indonesian tin and its impact on the global tin market. This research uses the concept of a global production network. This research focuses on strategy and dynamics in the tin industry. This research uses secondary data obtained from news, reports, and previous research that discusses the Indonesian tin industry and primary data obtained through interviews with relevant parties that influence policy formation, then analyzed using the explanatory method. This research shows that the policy of Sn 99.9% content in tin affects the condition of Indonesian tin. The main reason for establishing this policy is to protect the availability of tin raw materials. The price of tin with a Sn 99.9% higher content makes for superior profits. The impact of standardization of tin content tends to be positive because Indonesia can directly sell tin without reprocessing it. On the other hand, the entry of tin products with a content of Sn 99.9% into the global tin market has increased the availability of tin supply. This condition certainly makes customers no longer dependent on one supplier. Customers in the global market can also buy directly from Indonesia. However, in some situations, other factors affect the state of the tin market.
