On the other hand, the production of computer, electronic, and optical products, as well as the manufacture of electrical equipment, grew compared to last year.

On a working-day-adjusted basis, industrial output logged a renewed increase of 0.3 percent versus a 1.0 percent fall in the prior month.

On a monthly basis, industrial production climbed 1.5 percent, following a 1.0 percent recovery in the previous month.
