JAKARTA (Reuters): Indonesia reported its seventh monthly trade surplus in November, as imports continue to weaken while exports improved, statistics bureau data showed on Tuesday (Dec 15).

Southeast Asia's largest economy had a surplus of US$2.62 billion last month, slightly smaller than the $2.67 billion surplus expected by economists in a Reuters poll. In October, the nation posted a trade surplus of $3.61 billion.
