ADNAAN Posted October 29, 2009 This is great news. Originally posted by ThePoint: FB - all good. They're gonna need big *** atm machines - wheel barrow full needed to make a $10 purchase. You are right, I guess the machines will have to dispense cash in dollars. Swiping the card at the counter is another good use to it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've always wondered why Somalis don't reconsitute their currencies and make bills of bigger denominations or knock off a few zeros from the exchange rates by printing new bills. The Somali shilling is hampered here by its use in other parts of Somalia but the Somaliland shilling could manage a rework like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suldaanka Posted October 30, 2009 ^^I think that is just a surgical solution to the problem. I would prefered if they did something to actually improve the value of the currency instead of reworking the numbers on the notes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
