*OT * Man killed over currency crisis debate JAKARTA (Reuters) - An Indonesian man killed a university student after a heated argument over the country's currency crisis, the official Antara news agency reported on Tuesday. It said the man, identified as NN, stabbed Ahmad Nasution to death Monday in Tangerang, near Jakarta, after they argued about Indonesia's worst economic crisis in decades. Antara said the suspect, who has been arrested by police, was furious with Nasution's opinion. "NN could not accept the argument of the victim. NN felt he had to get revenge," Jon Effendi, a neighbor of Nasution, was quoted as saying. Antara gave no further details. Indonesia announced fresh IMF-sponsored economic reforms last Thursday. The new measures supersede an earlier program agreed in October with the International Monetary Fund in exchange for a $43 billion bail-out. The rupiah has tumbled over 75 percent since early July when the region's economic crisis began.
