SINGAPORE -- Singapore's manufacturing output rose 22.4% in November year-over-year, the nation's Economic Development Board said last week. Electronics grew 19.9% year-on-year, driven by demand for semiconductors, computer peripherals and data storage.

The three-month moving average growth was 20.6% for total manufacturing, the EDB reported. The seasonally adjusted month-on-month manufacturing output growth was up 1.5%.

Through November, total manufacturing output rose 9.9% over last year. Electronics was up 7.5% over that period.

Semiconductor production spiked 42% in November, computer peripherals were up 24.4% and storage was up 10.4%.

Telecom and consumer electronics fell 4.2% as lower demand for mobile products offset increased production of PCs and consumer items.
