New Year, New Money







I'm really excited to see Bangko Central's New Year's gift to Filipinos -- New Philippine Peso Bills. Philippine Money New Design for 2011 was introduced last December 15,2010 in a news network.

According to Amando Tetangco, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor, the new currencies took three years to complete, from conceptualization and printing. He also added that the new bills will make it difficult for counterfeiters to copy while easier for people to determine counterfeits. Wow! This is a really nice gift from our government.

Here are our new bills:

























Aside from new design,  the abaca-cotton paper used is "hygienically treated" or has anti-bacterial properties. Cool! I just wish it has also an anti-corrupt government official feature. :)
