It's Raining Steel for China

PR Log (Press Release) – Sep 25, 2006 – China's steel industry can be taken as the barometer of its economy that is still fomented by export-oriented production (that utilize a good deal of raw material) and fixed-asset investment. Therefore, the steel demand is augmented by the firm economic growth. It is not surprising that despite being a major target of the government's two year-old belt-tightening policy, the steel production is still growing.

It has been warned repeatedly to China by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), its top economic planning body, that regional governments should cut down the investments and close small factories with stale technology to reduce excessive investments. But, these warnings have been neglected as the recent statistics show that steel production grew strongly in the first half of this year and is anticipated to rise even faster in the other half, owing to strong demand for exports and at home.

Nevertheless, as long as investment and export of manufactured goods drive China's economy, demand for steel products will remain sturdy despite of the government's efforts to control it.
