From 2013 to 2019, receipts generally trended downward, with notable year-on-year variations, including a sharp decline in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The sector showed a resilient recovery starting in 2021, peaking in 2022 and continuing to improve in 2023. As of 2023, the receipts stood at 3.55 units of exports, reflecting a 12.63% year-on-year increase from 2022. The average yearly variation over the last five years (CAGR) was -1.86%.

Looking ahead to the forecasted period from 2024 to 2028:

  • A decreasing trend is anticipated, with the CAGR from 2024 to 2028 projected at -3.62%.
