[Title] => Trade deficit falls to $1.834B
[Summary] => Improved economic conditions have contributed to a significant fall in the country’s trade deficit to $1.834 billion in the first six months of the year from $3.194 billion in the same period last year, the National Statistics Office (NSO) reported yesterday.
