SEOUL-SABA
South Korea's exports recorded year-on-year growth for the fourteenth consecutive month in November, thanks to the strong performance of the chip sector.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy said in a statement carried by the Korean news agency (Yonhap) that exports rose 1.4 percent year-on-year to 56.3 billion U.S. dollars last month.

Imports fell 2.4 percent year-on-year to $50.7 billion, resulted in a trade surplus of $5.61 billion, bringing South Korea to a trade surplus for 18 consecutive months.

"In November, exports faced unexpected obstacles, including a strike by auto parts manufacturers that led to a decline in car production and weather conditions that hampered shipments", Industry Minister Ann Duc-Guillon said in a statement.

He added "However, South Korea managed to maintain export growth for 14 consecutive months, in addition to achieving a trade surplus for 18 consecutive months, thanks to the strong performance of key sectors such as semiconductors and ships".
