[Title] => Global Steelworks to start commercial operation by June
[Summary] => Global Steelworks International Inc. (GSII), formerly the National Steel Corp., has informed the Board of Investments (BOI) that it will begin commercial operation by June this year.
The start of GSII’s full commercial operation is supposed to trigger the imposition of the approved increase in tariff rate on hot and cold rolled coils that will be produced by GSII.
However, according to government sources, GSII must inform the Tariff and Related Matters (TRM) committee once the firm is commercially operational.

According to industry sources, the DTI is leaning towards the five-seven-seven percent proposal even as Global Steelworks International Inc. (GSII) or formerly the National Steel Corp. (NSC) is pushing for a higher tariff of six-eight-eight percent.

[Title] => Upstream steel industry favored in 2004 IPP
[Summary] => The downstream iron and steel industry will not be entitled to any fiscal and non-fiscal incentives this year to force investors to put their money on the upstream side, a trade official said.
The downstream industry refers to the processing of raw or semi-finished materials for the manufacture of finished products.
The upstream industry, on the other hand, is the primary and intermediate stage for steel products, which serve as raw materials for the downstream industry.

[Summary] => The Federation of Philippine Industries (FPI) urged yesterday Global Infrastructure Holding Ltd. (GIHL) not to ask for a higher tariff on steel imports.
