Taipei, July 7 (CNA) Taiwan's exports returned to double-digit growth in June, largely on the back of solid global demand for electronic devices and machinery, the Ministry of Finance (MOF) said Friday.
In June, Taiwan's outbound sales rose 13 percent from a year earlier to US$25.83 billion after an 8.4 percent year-on-year increase in May and a 9.3 percent rise in April, data compiled by the MOF shows. In March, Taiwan's exports grew 13.1 percent from a year earlier.
The data indicates that Taiwan's exports grew in June for the ninth consecutive month.
Last month, Taiwan's imports totaled NT$20 billion, up 3.7 percent from a year earlier, while the trade surplus stood at US$5.83 billion, up US$2.26 billion from a year earlier, the MOF said.
