SEOUL, Oct 15 (NNN-YONHAP) – South Korea’s export of the information and communications technology (ICT) products, kept growing for four straight months through Sept, on a partial global recovery from the COVID-19 outbreak, a government report showed today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ICT export expanded 11.9 percent over the year to 17.63 billion U.S. dollars in Sept, continuing to increase since June, according to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ICT import rose 9.0 percent to 9.56 billion dollars in the month, sending the trade surplus to 8.07 billion dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The double-digit export growth was attributable to the partial recovery in global demand for locally-made products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Semiconductor export jumped 11.9 percent in Sept from a year earlier, and display panel shipment grew 2.7 percent last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Export for computers and peripherals surged 62.7 percent in the month. Demand stayed strong as people preferred to work at home and attend online classes amid the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mobile phone shipment retreated 25.7 percent in Sept, from a year ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ICT export to China, South Korea’s biggest trading partner, amounted to 8.17 billion dollars in Sept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was followed by 3.11 billion dollars in export to Vietnam, 2.04 billion dollars to the United States and 1.07 billion dollars to the European Union.– NNN-YONHAP <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
