Gassama, the dollar was between D8.50 and D9 in 1994.
Central Bank figures will tell you this. It is the £
that was D13 in 1994. As of this morning the Dalasi to
£ in the streets was D28.75 , in some places it was
D29. This explains the rising price of consumer goods.
The $ was D19.35 this morning. Visit the financial
services web site or the economic intelligence web
page and you will see the performance of our economy.
Not too good a prediction.

E Sillah.

<P>"As it stands today, the Dalasis is roughly D20.23

when the Dalasi stood at roughly D8.75 per US
Dollar?"<BR><BR>This is absolutely incorrect, at least
from the parallel market in Sere Kunda or London
corner (Bambo Junction). I do not know where you got
your figures from but I can categorically tell you
that the Dalasi to Dollar rate pre-1994 coupe, was
more than D13.50 and is less than D19.00, at least by
this weekend. I know this 'cause&nbsp;I only changed
some Dollars on Saturday and also changed Dollars
before and immediately after the coupe. I can fully
remember when the former AFPRC regime increased
airport tax to $10.00, D150.00 or the equivalent of
ten pounds sterling in other foreign currencies.
Therefore the Dollar changing for less than D10.00 in
1994 is not correct and the Dollar changing for more
than D20.00 right now is also not correct.</P></DIV>
