This was due to a lower base in 2020 when non-urgent elective surgical procedures were postponed during the circuit breaker.\nOn a quarter-on-quarter basis, the information and communications industry saw the largest increase in revenue.\nIt recorded a 10.5 per cent growth in the second quarter compared with the first three months of this year. Within the industry, firms which reported higher revenue were those engaged in information service activities which included Web hosting and Web portal services, such as online marketplaces and search engines.\nThe transportation and storage industry recorded a 10 per cent quarter-on-quarter rise in receipts, due mainly to shipping lines which saw an increase in freight rates and volume.\nThe professional services and administrative and support services segments also saw higher revenue in the second quarter.\nOn the other hand, the recreation and personal services industry saw the largest decline in turnover.\nThe 8.7 per cent quarter-on-quarter dip was attributed mainly to firms in the gaming and attractions segment reducing visitor capacity in line with tighter measures implemented during the phase two (heightened alert) period in May and June.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":819845036,"gmtCreate":1630058890025,"gmtModify":1676530213038,"author":{"id":"3586994859303940","authorId":"3586994859303940","name":"CL_Wong","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a974b1a26fc593e3134cf7e90be9c166","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3586994859303940","authorIdStr":"3586994859303940"},"htmlText":"Tell
