The company has identified potential new markets in Southeast Asia, particularly in countries like Vietnam and the Philippines, which have seen a surge in coal demand due to increasing industrialization. In 2022, Indonesia and Australia were major competitors in these markets, with Indonesia exporting about \u003cstrong\u003e487 million tonnes\u003c\/strong\u003e of coal in the same year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTarget emerging markets with increasing energy needs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe global push towards energy transition has opened doors for coal exports to emerging markets.
