If you are going into Uganda today, you have a HUGE advantage but for someone like me who went in as a US$ investor it is absolute bullshit!
I use the US$ as the 'international' currency...
Since Dec 2010, when Ugandans re-elected that thieving fool... the UGX has dropped from 2000 to 2820 today! It is expected to touch 3,000.
Even if I was long-term, I would need a massive 50% appreciation of the UGX just to break-even! That's assuming NO more losses to UGX 4,000/-. BTW, the US$ is weak. If you compare UGX vs JPY/CHF/A$ then it is even worse! Much worse!
