FGI pointed out that Global Steelworks International Inc. (GSII) has not yet proven that it has attained commercial operation status.

In fact, the FGI revealed, GSII has canceled orders booked by local galvanizers.

CRC also pointed out there is no naphtha cracker plant in the country and the industry is facing competition from increased smuggling.
