JAKARTA (Dow Jones)--Indonesia's annual consumer inflation edged down to 5.67% in October from 5.80% in September, the official Central Statistics Agency said Monday.
The latest reading is likely to give Bank Indonesia another reason to keep interest rates unchanged when it meets Thursday.
Compared with a month earlier, the agency said that the consumer price index rose 0.06% in October, after rising 0.44% in September.
The median forecast of 10 regional economists polled by Dow Jones Newswires was for the consumer price index to rise 5.81% on year in October. Meanwhile the median forecast of seven economists who came up with on-month comparisons was for the consumer price index to gain 0.20% in October.
Core inflation, which excludes volatile food prices and prices controlled by the government, edged up to 4.19% on year from 4.02% in September, the agency said.
