People get more confused

People get more confused

From Merdeka

In the last few days, stickers have been made bearing the
slogan "I love Rupiah".

This confuses me since I cannot see who actually does not love
rupiah. Without exception, common people like me, accounting for
over 98 percent of the population, love rupiah although it is
very difficult for us to obtain a lot it.

Besides, how can common people like me keep U.S. dollars since
we have never seen any and do not know what they actually look
like.

I think U.S. dollars are owned and kept by no more than 2
percent of the population, comprising of business tycoons,
government officials and those whose positions are related to
financial sources.

So do not let the present monetary situation confuse common
people. Just realize that prices of daily necessities are
increasing with each passing day, especially as Idul Fitri
approaches. This situation will only create a headache for common
people, including civil servants.
