In 2003 Suriname’s GDP growth (5.6%) was almost double the rate posted the preceding year, thanks to the recovery of the mining sector, in which the most buoyant activities were alumina, gold and oil production. Sharp cutbacks in public spending, the implementation of a series of tax measures and better economic performance enabled the central government to balance its fiscal accounts (-7% of GDP in 2002 and 0.2% in 2003).
