-- Indonesia's official reserve assets position at the end of April stood at $146.2 billion, down from $148.2 billion at the end of the previous month, Bank Indonesia said on Friday.
The decline reflected tax and service revenues, as well as proceeds from global government bond issuance amid external debt repayments, and the central bank's rupiah stabilization measures in response to heightened global financial market uncertainty.
The reserve position was equivalent to financing 5.8 months of imports, or 5.6 months of imports and government external debt servicing, remaining well above the international adequacy standard of around three months of imports, the central bank said.
