The net value of the trade of the port coming under the cognizance of the Foreign Customs was in 1907 returned at Tls. 1,880,422 against Tls. 1,497,134 in 1906, Tls. 1,317,544 in 1905, and Tls. 1,956,371 in 1904. The bulk of the carrying trade is, however, carried on by junks, which do not come under the control of the Foreign Customs.
