Indonesia may raise the export tax on cocoa beans in February due to the increasing price of the commodity, said Zulhefi Sikumbang, Chairman of the Indonesian Cocoa Association.

“We estimate export tax will be increased, but we don’t know how much,” Sikumbang said by phone from Makassar, capital of South Sulawesi province, today.
