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

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
