AlQa'dah 26, 1432, Oct 24, 2011, SPA - Japan's exports climbed 2.4 per cent in September from a year earlier to 5.98 trillion yen (US$78.4 Billion), a sign of recovery from the March earthquake and tsunami, the government said Monday. The second consecutive month of rise in trade was led by increases in shipments of cars and car parts, the Finance Ministry said in a preliminary report quoted by the German Press Agency "DPA". Imports rose 12.1 per cent to 5.68 trillion yen, leaving the trade surplus at 300.4 billion yen, the ministry said.
