Well,
there are hundred of stories of the kind you have put up on the forum.

or is there any alternate that the members of this forum can develop to this Steel Mill

Pakistan Steel Mills is a yateem khanna. The morons who had been running it could not take advantage of 2 decades of work on the development of infrastructure in middle east and now they hope to accomplish what? Reconstruction in Afghanistan? I think it would be cheaper to buy steel from India and shut down the yateem khana once and for all unless they put their act together.

my two cents

There was a time steel was a barameter of industrial progress. Today electronic materials, plastics, composites have become equally important. Dollar for dollar some of these newer materials pack more punch to your economy.
