Somebody help me. What is Ug's biggest/largets legal tender i.e. As Kenya is to 1000/=, Zimbabwe is to Z$10,000,000, uganda is to ------?

FYI:Zim abandoned the Zim Dollar in '09. The economy now runs on the USD and other majors. The ZSE is now the only African bourse listed in USD.

50,000 shillings is the largest Ugandan currency note.

Value dropping like a rock thrown from a cliff!

As someone said this piece of crap currency is heading to 3,000 vs US$

museveni is another mugabe & it is showing in the currency...

This can't be a co incidence the the KES,Ugandan Shilling and Tanzanian Shilling have all weakened against the dollar. There must something that is leading to the weakening of our currency when other worldwide currencies are strengthening against the $$$




i have a strong feeling that it is the kenyaa shilling weakening against the USD and since the regional currencies are pegged to that they follow suit.

my two cents.

This turd stinks worse than the KES. And it will not flush away. It floats to remind me of the stupid decision I made going into a country where the head pig's heroes are gaddafi & mugabe!

Historically, the Botswana Pula (BwP) experienced similar weakness during the exploration stages of its diamond resource. The reversal to strength of the currency after diamond sales commenced made smart fellows richer. Hence, same story, different cast. UG is no exception. It is more of a patience than a money game perse ~ Respect the game & the game will respect you.

The machinations of the West on this country created a GREAT oppurtunity to accumilate distressed yet quality long-term assets. The race is not for the swift...
