Creamer Media editor Terence Creamer discusses ArcelorMittal South Africa's announcement that it may cut about 3 500 jobs as it plans to wind down its long-products business; the reasons for it taking this step; the impact of the closure on the town of Newcastle, as well as South Africa's industrial capacity and beneficiation ambitions; and whether there is anything government can do to prevent the closure of the business and the job losses.
