SE Asia Stocks-Most track Wall Street higher; Indonesia up nearly 1 pct

* Vietnam up nearly 1 pct

* Philippine May inflation rises

* Malaysia April exports up

June 5 (Reuters) - Most Southeast Asian stock markets rose

on Tuesday tracking overnight gains on Wall Street, with

Indonesia gaining nearly one percent buoyed by

telecommunication and energy stocks.

Wall Street's three major indexes rose overnight, led by a

rally in tech stocks, that pushed the Nasdaq to a record closing

high.

An index of Indonesia's 45 most liquid stocks rose

about 0.8 percent. Telekom Indonesia and Indah Kiat

Pulp & Paper, up as much 4.4 and 11.4 percent

respectively, were the top gainers on the country's benchmark

index.

Vietnam shares climbed over 1 percent helped by gains

in utilities and the country's benchmark was on track for a

fourth straight session of gains.

Philippines shares were trading marginally higher,

after falling as much as 0.4 percent to 7550.064, a support.

"The market has strong support at 7550. Hopefully, the

market bottoms out and rallies to 7770," said Manny Cruz,

analyst at Asiasec Equities Inc.

"Based on technical patterns, the market may consolidate

within a tight range. But, foreign selling continues."

Philippine annual inflation quickened in May but at a

slower-than-expected pace, the country's statistics agency said.

Singapore climbed 0.4 percent as financials extended

gains from the previous session.

DBS Group Holdings and OCBC rose more

than 1 percent each to over one-week highs.

Asia ex-Japan shares were trading largely

flat after surging 1.4 percent in the previous day.

Meanwhile, Malaysian shares fell 0.4 percent with

industrials and telecommunication shares weighing heavily on the

index.

The country's April exports rose 14 percent from a year

earlier, buoyed by strong demand for manufactured goods,

government data showed on Tuesday.

Energy shipping company MISC Bhd, down as much as

5 percent, was the biggest drag.

Thai shares slipped 0.3 percent on broad selling.
