I'm signing because I was a worker at AMSA Saldanha Work that was retrenched. I was and am the solo provider for my family, so the closure of this plant was a negative influence on both my family and myself, but it also had a negative effect on our region and community on a whole.

It is my home base in SA, and I want to return when my contract expires. I believe the plant is viable. It is a modern facility that can make money with some minor investments.

The West Coast Economy has taken a double hit with Mittal's closure and Covid-19. This is the best and fastest option to get the economy going again.

Unemployment is dire on the West Coast. This already is an existing plant worth billions if not trillions which can be saved and operate involving the right resources. Saldanha Steel has and will once again have a great impact on the South African economy which has been taken a huge dip during the global pandemic
