Jakarta - Indonesian shares plunged 5.6 per cent Monday amid lingering concerns about a potential global economic recession.
The benchmark Jakarta Composite Index lost 200.32 points to close at 3,348.71.
Other markets around Asia fell Monday, after Greece said on Friday it would not meet the deficit reduction targets that were a condition of massive international loans to bail it out of debt.
