utf8 encoding in Perl and MySql

my database (MySql) has a utf8_general collation. I am accessing data from database and showing a webpage (developed in Perl), it is showing Swedish characters (ä,å,ö) with a different characters. I checked in Mysql database, there I can see the data with ä,å,ö characters in it. It seems, there is a encoding problem while accessing data. While connecting to database, used following code

my($dbh) = DBI->connect($config{'dbDriver'},$config{'dbUser'},$config{'dbPass'}) or die "Kunde inte ansluta till $config{'dataSource'}: " . $DBI::errstr;
$dbh->{'mysql_enable_utf8'} = 1;
$dbh->do('set names utf8');
