Reuters - Indonesia's consumers remained optimistic about prospects for the economy in January, but were more concerned about the availability of jobs, a Bank Indonesia
survey showed on Monday.
The consumer confidence index edged up to 116.7 from 116.5 in December. A reading above 100 indicates that consumers in general are optimistic.
Price pressures were expected to increase in the next three months and will surge over the next six months, bolstered by Muslim holidays, as well as rising worries about the security, social and political situations after presidential election on July 9.
