Tien Giang's export turnover surges

 The Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang posted US$1.056 billion in export turnover in the first nine months of 2014, a record 39.1 per cent increase year on year.

Rice, the province's major commodity, maintained its steady growth with more than 155,000 tonnes sold overseas during the period. Aquatic products, clothing and shoe exports also soared.

Measures taken to expand export markets and manage export activities are said to be responsible for the rising figures, according to the provincial Industry and Trade Department.
