Exports grew 27 percent over a year earlier to a three-month low of USD 21.51 billion, the softest pace in four months, due to less working days during the Eid-ul Fitr festival and following the country's ban on palm oil shipments. Meanwhile, imports rose at a faster 30.74 percent to USD 18.61 billion, amid strengthening domestic demand. For the first five months of the year, the goods posted a surplus of USD 19.79 billion, with exports and imports surging by 36.34 percent and 28.93 percent, respectively. source: Statistics Indonesia
