China's economy grew in the first quarter of 2018, boosted by the pickup of the construction and manufacturing sectors, while the service and agricultural sector hampered economic growth. The construction sector grew by 6.3% over the same period last year.
China's economy grew by 6.8% in the first quarter, beating expectations of 6.7% growth. The manufacturing sector rebounded earlier this year.
But some experts say China will lose momentum in the coming period, as local governments are forced to return infrastructure projects to contain their debts.
