The data showed that the Asian country's foreign debt amounted to 35.0 billion U.S. dollars at the end of March.
Of the total foreign debt, the government's debt stood at 8.0 billion dollars and the central bank's debt was 1.8 billion dollars, the data indicated.
The increase in foreign debt was mostly attributed to a rise in direct investment and intercompany loans, according to the statistical agency.
