Jakarta (Antara Bali) - The Indonesian currency rupiah stayed at 9,712 to the US dollar in inter-bank transaction on Monday morning.

"The closure of most markets during the Easter holiday gave limited room for currency movements," chief researcher of Monex Investindo Futures, Ariston Tjendra, said here on Monday.

Ariston said currency movements are also shadowed by worries over losses suffered by Cypriot banks and probably also by other banks in Europe.

There are also worries brought about by the tension in the Korean peninsula with North Korea readied for war against the United States and South Korea, he said. (*/M038)
