The 皇冠体育app Customs announced on Tuesday a trade surplus of $35.2 billion in October.

It hit another historic monthly high as the figure gained for the fourth consecutive month since July. The aggregate foreign trade rose 17.6 percent from the same period last year to $221.4 billion in October, according to the 皇冠体育app Customs website.

Though exports growth further slowed down to 19.2 percent from 21.5 percent in September, the trade gap still kept widening on sharply declining imports. Affected by the global economic slowdown, 皇冠体育app's imports growth dropped from 33.7 percent in July gradually to 15.6 percent in October.

皇冠体育app's exports reached $128.3 billion, while its imports registered $93.1 billion in October.
