I have noticed the Aussie Dollar is going down again while GBP and USD is rising. Can only put that down to the Clowns in Office in Australia, reflecting as such in the value of the Aussie Dollar on the World Stage. Wouldn't mind if it went back to 45php like it was once before. While the Yanks would cry in their Beer at 45php to the Dollar, the Aussies surely would be rejoicing!

Nauh, when I got here the USD was at 40 peso to the dollar. Was quite content sipping a Red Horse and happy to be here. No crying from me.

At that time a litro of Red Horse was about 45 pesos a bottle. No reason to complain. What is it now? 80+?

I pay for Red Horse (Stallion) 25 pesos delivered. Don't know how much a litre bottle cost, possible 75 pesos!

Hopefully they get their act together before it gets even more out of hand.

This is the price filipinos pay for voting in a Socialist, and foreigners are retards for supporting him, knowing a person like him would never be accepted in the West. He would likely already be in jail

I know many here out of Dumaguete (around the Malatapay Markets) are complaining about the price of Vegetables, Meat, Livestock and other goods. Usually my Grocery Shopping at Hypermart is pretty set with what we buy, and I have noticed over maybe the past 6 months or so, our Bill has risen from 10,000php for a Months worth of Groceries to around 13,000php. Makes me wonder how the local people continue to support the President with what is happening when their lives are suffering so much as a direct result of this. I can absorb it, but how the hell does the little guy who works his bottom off for a pittance survive this? Even if it gets better I would bet that prices stay high.

prices rarely, if ever, return to their previous level. I remember years ago in the US when the avocado crop was damaged, the prices went sky high, and even after bumper crops the following years, they never went down again.
