SINGAPORE, April 17 (Reuters) - Singapore's non-oil domestic exports rose 5.4% in March from the same month a year earlier, government data showed on Thursday, with shipments of both electronics and non-electronics increasing.
The rise compared with a Reuters poll forecast of growth of 14.1% for March, and followed a 7.6% rise in February.
Exports to Taiwan, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Thailand, Japan and South Korea increased in annual terms in March, while exports to China declined.
The trade minister said on Wednesday a recession could not be ruled out in the trade-driven city-state because of U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policy.
Also on Wednesday, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said there was little comfort in the U.S. postponing most of its proposed "reciprocal" tariffs for three months, saying the changes had already created great uncertainty around the world.
On Monday, the central bank loosened monetary policy for the second time this year and the trade ministry lowered its economic growth forecast for 2025.
