Have you gone to websites of the various English speaking newspapers in Asia to get their slant on the dumping issue? I remember from my seven plus years in Japan all the articles about beef and oranges, not to mention the incredibly controversial rice issue. Try the Japan Times, Mainichi Daily News, and the Daily Yomiuri, circa 1986-1990.
You can bill it as the view from the other side......
There's also a possible slant about how the Japanese were always so highly anti-rice importers (don't want cheaper rice dumped) until their own rice crop failures necessitated imports from Thailand and Australia in the early/mid 1990's. Now there was a real conflict! I remember all the TV channels had live news reports following the import rice barges all the way into port, with constant commentary. The Thai embassy also printed up a recipe booklet to help the Japanese know how to cook Thai rice.....
You might also try the Bangkok Post or The Nation for articles about Thai rubber.
Sorry if you've already done this.
