Indonesia December trade surplus seen at US$4.01bil, lowest in seven months

JAKARTA, Jan 15 (Reuters): Indonesia's trade surplus likely narrowed further in December, with moderating global commodity prices expected to result in a US$4.01 billion surplus, the lowest in seven months, a Reuters poll has showed.

Indonesia enjoyed an export boom last year due to high global commodity prices, though prices of its top commodities have cooled in recent months alongside a global trade slowdown.
