TOKYO/SEOUL - Japan said on Thursday it was disappointed South Korea was proceeding with a complaint to the World Trade Organisation , a day after the body set up a panel to rule on curbs imposed by Tokyo on exports of some key technology materials to its neighbour.
Following the ruling, the Japanese government said in July last year it would stop preferential treatment for shipments to South Korea of three materials whose production it dominates and which are used by firms such as Samsung Electronics Co Ltd . Seoul, which resumed its WTO complaint in June after talks stalled, plans to show Japan's export restriction measures are"arbitrary and discriminatory" and is urging Tokyo to withdraw the measures as soon as possible.
