Statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics indicate China's enterprises have resumed the pre-SARS level in the third quarter of this year.  
 
The statistics show a quick sign of the resumption in heavily-affected sectors such as transportation, accommodation, food and social service compared with the same quarter last year.

General economic analyst of the bureau Yao Jingyuan says China's economy is gaining power to further push it forward now and China's current economic situation is much better than expected. He expects an 8 percent economic increase this year.
