Non-oil Domestic Exports (NODX)

6.
On a y-o-y basis, NODX declined by 1.8 per cent in April 2011, following the 9.9 per
cent growth in the previous month, due to a decline in electronic domestic exports.
7.
Electronic products. On a y-o-y basis, electronic NODX contracted by 10 per cent
in April 2011, after the 14 per cent decline in the previous month. The decrease in electronic
domestic exports was largely due to disk drives, parts of ICs and parts of PCs.
8.
Non-electronic products. On a y-o-y basis, non-electronic NODX expanded by 2.8
per cent in April 2011, following the 24 per cent increase in the previous month. The rise in
non-electronic NODX was led by pharmaceuticals, specialised machinery and plastic plates
& sheets.
