(The Taipei Times)
Exports last month surged 36.8 percent from a year earlier to a record high of US$34.27 billion, as demand from around the world for technology and non-tech products gained momentum, the Ministry of Finance said yesterday.
The momentum looks set to continue this month with a 3 to 8 percent increase, despite the week-long Lunar New Year holiday beginning tomorrow and running through Tuesday next week, Department of Statistics Director-General Beatrice Tsai (蔡美娜) said.
