11 Apr 2009 06:36 GMT DJ China Premier: Econ Growth Showed Improvements In March

PATTAYA, Thailand (Dow Jones)--China's economic growth showed improvements in many sectors in March, although the economy is still facing difficulties from less global demand, China's Premier Wen Jiabao said Saturday.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the postponed summit with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, Wen said China's industrial output grew 8.3% in March from a year earlier, compared with year-on-year growth of 3.8% in the January-February period.

He said China's industrial output in the first quarter grew over 5% from a year earlier.

China's National Bureau of Statistics is scheduled to release Thursday gross domestic product data for the first quarter, as well as other major economic indicators for March.
