BEIJING (AFP) - – China said Monday it was revising upwards the size of its current account surplus for the first quarter of 2010, after discovering that a year-on-year fall was smaller than previously announced.
 
The current account surplus -- the broadest measure of trade with the world -- reached 53.6 billion dollars in the first three months, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange said on its website.
 
That was 12.7 billion dollars more than the figure published in May, meaning the fall from the same period in 2009 narrowed to 32 percent from 48 percent announced previously. No explanation was offered for the change.
 
In 2009, China's current account surplus dropped for the first time in eight years -- by 35 percent year-on-year to 284.1 billion dollars -- as the global crisis hit exports.
 
Net inflow of direct investment into China totalled 15.5 billion dollars in the first quarter of 2010, compared with 17.5 billion dollars announced in May.
