JAKARTA Feb 16 (Reuters) - Indonesia's finance minister Agus Martowardojo said on Wednesday he saw first quarter GDP growth of 6.4 to 6.6 percent from a year ago.

The country's central bank also said this month it saw first quarter GDP growth of 6.4 percent.

Indonesia's economy expanded by 6.9 percent in the fourth quarter from a year earlier, beating forecasts for 6.2 percent growth in Southeast Asia's biggest economy, as domestic consumption and investment increased. (Reporting by Rieka Rahadiana; Editing by Neil Chatterjee)
