My opinion, this is a gross mistake. If the idea came from U.S. or IMF, its even worse. To long to explain, we will be reading about this bond thing from one David Wilcock in the coming weeks.

Hong Kong. Indonesia kicked off a much anticipated US dollar global bond on Monday, its first as an investment grade credit since Fitch promoted its sovereign rating in December to BBB- from a speculative grade of BB+, IFR reported.

The size of the issue was indicated as benchmark, which is typically at a minimum of $500 million. Guidance has been set at 5.375 percent to 5.500 percent on a long tenor of 30 years.

The deal comes a week after the Philippines saw heavy demand for its $1.5 billion, 5.00 percent, 25-year global bond.

Indonesia is expected to benefit from similarly strong demand as investors scour the globe for higher yield, and on the unallocated orders that it had received on its $1 billion seven-year global sukuk in November that chalked up a book of $6.5 billion.

The quick execution is facilitated by roadshows held in early December that brought the sovereign to London, Edinburgh, New York and Hong Kong. Joint leads are HSBC, JP Morgan and Stanchart.
