KONTAN.CO.ID - JAKARTA. The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) suspended trading of securities of state-controlled construction firm Waskita Karya after its bondholders rejected a proposal to delay payments, it said on Monday.

The exchange suspended trading of Waskita's shares and bonds for two weeks in February after the company deferred payment of a bond coupon.

The company's spokesperson did not immediately respond to request for comment.
