Exports of China fell 14.6% in March from a year ago, as measured in yuan. A government data was revealed on Monday, citing that a dull trade sector was a drag on the slackening economy of country.

In a sign of soft domestic demand, yuan-denominated imports into the world’s second-biggest economy last month fell 12.3 percent from a year ago, data from the General Administration of Customs showed.

The performance left China with a trade surplus of 18.2 billion yuan ($2.93 billion) last month, according to the yuan figures released on Monday.
