Foreign direct investment (FDI) fell for the fourth month in a row in January as the economic crisis deepened across the world.

Overseas direct investment last month dropped 32.6 percent year-on-year to $7.54 billion, the Ministry of Commerce said Monday, whereas in January 2008, it had risen by 109.78 percent.
