                    [Summary] => A delegation led by creditor-banks of National Steel Corp. (NSC) and the NSC liquidator will go to Malaysia next week to discuss with the Malaysian investors the debt restructuring plan of the debt-saddled steel firm.


Trade and Industry Secretary Manuel Roxas II said yesterday that two-thirds of the local bank creditors have reached a consensus on the debt restructuring plan for NSC.


"With a two-thirds consensus, it was deemed that an offer could already be presented to the Malaysian investors," Roxas said.
