Import, export prices fall YoY

The decrease in the Non-oil index was due to the Machinery & Transport Equipment index.

The Import Price Index fell 6.5% year on year in June, whilst the Export Price Index fell 7.8%.

For imports, the Oil and Non-oil indices dipped 19% and 2.4%, respectively.

The decrease in the Non-oil index was due to the Machinery & Transport Equipment index, attributed to lower prices of electrical machinery apparatus.

The Chemicals & Chemical Products, Manufactured Goods and Animal & Vegetable Oils indices also contributed to the decrease.

The declines were partially moderated by increases in the Miscellaneous Manufactured Articles, Food & Live Animals, Beverages & Tobacco and Crude Materials indices.

As for exports, the Oil and Non-oil indices fell 18.6% and 5%, respectively.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
