To my information, the current excahange rate for the Somali shillings is set by the business communities in Bakara Market and in Bosaso lately. There is a reason why the Bakara market receives more shelling than any other place in Somalia and that is to destroy it for good so the Somali economy completely collapses.

Hope that helps.

This SOmali brother went to a Shop in SOmalia and one his first day he tried to buy a coke. The shopkeeper told him he didn't have enough money. But, I have a 1000 shillin, the brother replied.

I think the question could have been phrased better Abdiwahab!I think you were meant to say Somalia currency. Somali is an ethnicity that extends beyond the borders of a political construct.

Hope that helps.

When reffering to Somalia you say Somali. So its the Somali currency, like its the American dollar, not the America dollar.

U got that?

Udun answered your question

Hawalads make a lot on currency exchange of the fake somali shilling

When money gets printed, much of it goes through the hawalads who exchange it for dollars from the west. They get crazy deals on the shillings, its an important revenue stream for the Hawalads and a lot of people don’t realize this.

Shirib,

All Countries are different and must be judged according to their own standards. In future, be careful not to subsume all countries under an American standard.

On the issue of the Somali currency, we need to perhaps clarify a few things.

Somali, unlike American, is an ethnicity that goes beyond the porous borders of 'Somalia'. Consequently, we need to distinguish the difference between a political construct and an ethnicity. With this in mind, its important we understand the exact extent to which the ineptly named 'Somali' currency has value and is used. Somalis in Somaliland, Kenya and Ethiopia do not currently for the most part use this inflation-ridden and worthless currency.
