Indonesian currency rates: Oct 12th 2006
One factor that will affect your time in Bali, is the rate of exchange. Let’s face it, us blue collar folks love acting like Donald Trump once a year in Bali, ordering the pretty waitresses around, and feeling the Bintang, to make sure its cold enough (as if we’ve got a clue!).
The good old Indonesian rupiah, is as stable as Indonesia’s fault line, which can buy us a few extra nasi gorengs, if we time it right. Here are a few major currencies showing today’s rate compared to the Rupiah.
1 Euro = 11,496.20 IDR
1 $US = 9,180.71 IDR
1 £GB = 17,113.65 IDR
1 $AU = 6,877.42 IDR
1 ¥JP = 77.1729 IDR
1 Brasil Reais = 4,279.91 IDR
1 S.Korea Won = 9.61359 IDR
1 $Sing = 5,816.99 IDR
1 $Taiwan = 276.888 IDR
So your laughing if you’re from Britain, crying in your kimchi if you’re Korean. Here’s BootsnAll’s currency converter, its pretty snappy.

But what can USD$1 buy? Will 9,180.71 IDR get you a pair of shoes or a night in a hotel? Or is it more like a candy bar?
