KUALA LUMPUR (Nikkei Markets) -- Malaysia's exports growth picked up pace, rising 7.6% in June from a year earlier, thanks to stronger shipments of electronics and demand from China, official data Friday showed.
Exports in June totalled 78.7 billion ringgit ($19.29 billion), according to data released by the Department of Statistics. That compares with May's 3.4% year-on-year gain. On a month-on-month, seasonally-adjusted basis, exports declined 5.4% in June.
