We've recently heard forecasts from South Korea's new finance minister that their economy will shrink by 2% this year, with 200,000 jobs potentially lost. A Chinese government survey of villages last week reported that 20 million of the nation's 130 million migrant workers are unemployed. In Japan, a new analysis predicts a larger economic contraction than previously forecast. Indonesia's exports fell by more than 20% in December as growth estimates have also fallen. And Taiwan's economy reported a record 44% drop in exports. Throughout Asia, the demand for durable goods is way down.
我们最近听到韩国财政经济部新任长官预计韩国经济今年将收缩2%，可能会有20万人失业。中国政府上周进行的一项农村调查显示，中国总计1.3亿民工中有 2000万人失业。日本一份新的分析报告也预测经济收缩幅度要比先前预计的高。印度尼西亚12月的出口额下降了20%以上，预期的增长幅度也减小。根据台湾的经济报告，其出口额空前下降了44%。整个亚洲对耐用商品的需求量均大幅度降低。
