December's export figure was also 5.57 percent lower than the monthly target of $5.62 billion, according to data from the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) today.

In the July-December period of the ongoing fiscal year, earnings from merchandise shipments marginally increased by 0.84 percent year-on-year to $27.54 billion.
