BEIJING, May 24 (Xinhua) -- Profit growth in China's state-owned enterprises (SOEs) accelerated in the first four months, data showed Thursday.

Combined profits surpassed 1 trillion yuan (about 158 billion U.S. dollars) for the January-April period, up 18.4 percent from one year earlier, according to the Ministry of Finance.
