rebuttal briefs on November 19, 2012,
from Petitioner, Fengchi, and ANH
Refractories Company (ANH), a
domestic producer of subject
merchandise.
Analysis of Comments Received
All issues raised by parties in their
case briefs are addressed in the Final
Decision Memorandum.3 A list of these
issues is attached to this notice in
Appendix I. The Final Decision
Memorandum is a public document and
is on file electronically via Import
Administration’s Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Centralized
Electronic Service System (IA ACCESS).
Access to IA ACCESS is available to
registered users at https://
iaaccess.trade.gov and in the Central

Decision Memorandum and electronic

Memorandum are identical in content.
Scope of the Order
The scope of the order includes
certain magnesia carbon bricks.4 Certain
magnesia carbon bricks that are the
subject of the order are currently
classifiable under subheadings
6810.11.0000, 6810.91.0000,
6810.99.0080, 6902.10.1000,
6902.10.5000, 6815.91.0000,
6815.99.2000 and 6815.99.4000 of the

Final Rescission, in Part, of the
Administrative Review
ANH Xinyi, the RHI companies, and
NCR for these final results.
In the Preliminary Results, we stated
that a final decision regarding whether
to rescind the review with respect to
certain companies would be made in the
final results of this review.5 We
continue to find no evidence on the
record to indicate that these companies
exported subject merchandise during
the POR. Accordingly, pursuant to 19
CFR 351.213(d)(3), the Department is
rescinding the review with respect to
Rate for Non-Selected Companies
Under Review
With respect to the companies for
which we initiated reviews and for
which the review has not been
rescinded,6 we are assigning these
companies the all others rate from the
investigation because the rates
determined for the mandatory
respondents in this review are based
entirely upon AFA. We consider the use
of the all-others rate from the
investigation, which was based upon a
calculated rate for one of the mandatory
respondents in the investigation, to be a
reasonable method for calculating the
rate applicable to the remaining
companies under review because it
represents the only rate in the history of
the CVD order on magnesia carbon
bricks from the PRC that is not zero, de
minimis, or based entirely upon facts
available.
Final Results of Review

Mission Description
The United States Department of
Commerce, International Trade
Administration, U.S. & Foreign
Commercial Service (US&FCS), is
organizing an executive led education
industry trade mission to Manila,
Philippines and Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia from October 23—October 30,
2013. This mission is open to
representatives from regionally
accredited educational institutions
offering undergraduate, graduate, and
associate degree. Undergraduate and
graduate programs and community
colleges seeking to participate should be
accredited by one of the six regional
institutional accreditors in the United
States. This mission will seek to connect
educational institutions in the United
States to potential students, university/
institution partners, and education
consultants in the Philippines and
Malaysia. The mission will include oneon-one appointments with potential
partners, embassy briefings, student
fairs and networking events in Manila
and Kuala Lumpur, the largest cities in
two dynamic countries, each of which

Frm 00013
Fmt 4703

hold high potential for U.S. educational
institutions interested in students from
this region.
Commercial Setting
Philippines
The U.S. still attracts a commanding
share of Filipinos wishing to study
abroad. U.S. institutions remain a top
choice owing in large part to the firmly
established historical, socio-cultural and
political ties between the two countries.
Due to increased competition from
schools in other countries such as
Australia, Singapore, the United
Kingdom and Canada, U.S. schools are
encouraged to establish and sustain
outreach activities and to leverage the
support offered by key education sector
contacts. During the 2011/2012
academic year, 3,194 students from the
Philippines were studying in the United
States. Of these students, 52.7% were
undergraduate students and 32.6% were
graduate students.
The current educational system in the
Philippines is largely based on the
American model. There are about 1,600
higher educational institutions (HEIs) in
the Philippines, of which 80% are
private. There are several international
schools in the Philippines. Many of
these schools are concentrated in the
Manila metropolitan area and offer
International Baccalaureate (IB)
programs to help prepare students who
wish to study overseas. Filipino families
place a premium on quality education,
and as long as they can afford it, parents
often prefer to send their children to
private schools. Many overseas schools
are increasing their recruiting efforts in
the Phillipines, particularly with respect
to certain niche segments of Filipino
society, for example the socio-economic
political elite, legacy students/alumni
network, and upper middle class
families. Meanwhile, there has been a
wave of international students, notably
Koreans, who spend time in the
Philippines specifically to learn English.
Many of them eventually move on to
pursue degrees in English-speaking
countries like the United States, Canada
and Australia.
Malaysia
Malaysian parents have historically
placed a strong emphasis on education.
As such, the demand for higher
education in Malaysia has traditionally
been and continues to be strong. Within
the higher education environment,
students in Malaysia generally fall into
one of two categories: those funded by
government scholarships and those
funded privately. Government
scholarships for higher education are

Final Rescission, in Part, of the Administrative Review
In the Preliminary Results, we stated that a final decision

continue to find no evidence on the record to indicate that these
companies exported subject merchandise during the POR. Accordingly,
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(3), the Department is rescinding the
review with respect to ANH Xinyi, the RHI companies, and NCR for these
final results.

Rate for Non-Selected Companies Under Review
With respect to the companies for which we initiated reviews and
