KONTAN.CO.ID - BENGALURU. Indonesia's economy likely accelerated last quarter, buoyed by strong exports and private consumption, but a slowdown in China and the threat of a global recession pose significant risks in coming months, a Reuters poll found. With rising global commodity prices, the resource-rich country has been enjoying an export boom. Its trade surplus in 2022's first half was the highest on record at $24.89 billion, more than double that of the same period in 2021. Southeast Asia's largest economy grew 5.17% in the April-June period compared with the same three months a year earlier, the median forecast of 22 economists polled July 25-Aug. 2 showed.
