One of the Europe and the United States trade surplus has narrowed, on Taiwan, Japan, Korea and ASEAN and other neighboring countries and regions significantly enlarge the deficit.

Huang Guohua analysis: "In accordance with the law over the years, the Spring Festival holiday after a month or so labor-intensive production and exports are at a low ebb. Coupled with the recent double-up the price of raw materials and labor, which causes lack of export power; as the international trade environment, income tight, Europe and the United States economy is still low ebbs, consumer confidence is still insufficient, the recent labor-intensive exports is limited. "
