Consequently, Thailand\u2019s import growth trend has followed a steady uptrend ever since 2000, with only a slight hiccup in 2007-9.<\/p>\n<p>Iran exported 5.53 million tons of semis and steel products in the last Iranian year (March 2016-17), the Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization reported.\u00a0Over 16% of the total figure, amounting to 884,800 tons, were shipped to Thailand. This indicates an over 97% growth in shipments year-on-year and makes Iran the fourth fastest growing exporter of the commodity to the kingdom, followed by Indonesia, Australia and China.<\/p>\n<p>Experts believe that in order to sustain capacity growth, steelmakers must boost exports as the local construction market is still low on demand and shows no immediate signs of recovery.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: Foolad News<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"news-date\">Publuish Date : 2017\/05\/29<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thailand is currently the world\u2019s fourth largest importer of steel and Iran [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":89,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-88","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":90,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88\/revisions\/90"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/89"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yasco.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
