Rupiah warriors

Markit

If they "want to raise the spirit of love in the nation and that is by loving the rupiah" they need to knock off 3 or more zeros from the thing. I just sat with my indo insurance manager and we tried to understand what the hell a 2.5% excess was trying to tell us on my house. Needless to say there were zero (0) problems, not! I suspect the "weakness" will continue until the elections next year?

As Indonesia's currency trades at its weakest levels since the 1998 Asian financial crisis, a local restaurant chain is offering free meals to clients who can prove they have exchanged holdings of U.S. dollars for the ailing rupiah. While easy to brush off as a marketing gimmick, the restaurant's online campaign "#bantaidolar", or "butcher the dollar", shows how alarm over the plight of the rupiah is becoming more mainstream in Southeast's biggest economy. "We want to raise the spirit of love in the nation and that is by loving the rupiah," said Agung Prasetyo Utomo, founder of fried chicken chain Ayam Geprek Juara, which so far says it has given out 83 free meals for customers who had sold their dollars, describing them as "rupiah warriors". https://www.nasdaq.com/article/indonesia-restaurant-chain-seeks-rupiah-warriors-as-economic-worries-grow-20180910-00007

It is better to keep silent and be thought an idiot than to speak and remove all doubt. Shut up Johnny, please.
