USD hits 12000 Rupiah

What the… This is insane! Crazee.. Siao.. Gila…

The local TV reported that 1 USD = IDR.12.000 – 12.500 like that. This is probably the highest rate since the regional financial crisis that hits Indonesia on 1998. And now, it’s worse, global crisis.

Paypal rate is now: 1 USD = 12.027,4 IDR!!!!! Last 6 months, 1 USD was only IDR.8.800 like that. This is IDR.3.000 different, my dear. Let’s take USD.1k, I already lose IDR.3.000.000!!! That’s a lot of zero and numbers. Damn.

The rate is getting crazier. Sigh. We will see more raise in prices, including Lipozene, the diet pills. Thanks G, I don’t need one or I’ll be a skinny skeleton.
