Just curious kung ano effect ng weak dollar sa host country nyo.Tumaas ba cost of living? Dito sa saudi I noticed theres an increase in prices of some foodstuff. Although di mo gaanong pansin dahil minimal. SR is pegged to US dollar for the longest time then most of their imports come from Europe, eh ang taas ng value Euro.

no effect here in iran. they shifted from dollar to euro as their trading currency and bank holdings.
nakakapagtaka lang sa dami ng oil nila dito eh ngayun may gas rationing na. well preparation siguro nila kung may sanctions man. would you believe na iran government has only allowed 100 liters of gasoline per month to each car or 3 liters per day... para ring color coding kung gusto mo malayo-layo matravel eh bumili ka ng second hand car!

-sa 'pinas basta may pambili kahit ilang litro pero kita oil companies

No effect here in United Kingdom. They don't depend on dollar nor euro. Mas malaki kasi ang value ng Sterling Pound. Kaya hanggang ngayon di pa rin nila ginagamit ang Euro kahit most of the EU member using the euro as thier currency since the start of 2003.

June 2005 1£ : 110 Pesos
Nov 2007 1£ : 90 Pesos

Laki ng nawala for 2 years because of a stronger Peso. Meaning, umaangat ang Pilipinas bakit 11 million population still on poverty line.
