DJ Indonesia Govt Launches 10% Bk Danamon Stake Sale

JAKARTA (Dow Jones)--The Indonesian government Wednesday said it has launched the sale of a 10% stake in PT Bank Danamon (BDMN.JK), Indonesia's fifth biggest lender, in a move designed to help narrow the government's 2004 budget deficit.

The sale of about 490 million shares in the bank will raise between US$180 million and US$190 million for the government, a source familiar with the deal said - cash that the government needs after its privatization program failed to meet its fundraising target.

The government currently owns a 20.5% stake in Bank Danamon.

The shares will be priced at a 3%-5% discount to the Wednesday closing price, the source said. The government has asked the Jakarta bourse to suspend trading in the shares Thursday.
