Yen Exchange Rate Watch

[SquallLH]

thanks for the headsup.

probably go down on saturday to change some first. dangerous dangerous.

is it some shenton way rumor or something ?

No problem, it's hearsay from a friend who's watching bloomberg news.
Conflicting rumors abound now, so I think just change a small sum every now and then LOL...

I think James is referring to XE/Yahoo Forex rate.

where 15.44? i see mustafa 15.56 now.

It's online: http://www.xe.com/ucc/

When it was 15.61 in Spore, it was around 15.49 online (probably that is currency instead of notes)

I should have indicated 'currency' there.... so by looking at it, probably difference of 0.11 to 0.12

Hi, a poor student here. I'm gg to Fukuoka in late June. Is it better to change currency now or later on? To what extent will the depreciation of SGD affect the exchange rate? Is there any more trouble to come? Any kind of info would be helpful. Thanks. >_<

Kaiseki: Hmmm I ate kaiseki in Japan, and I don't really like it because they have many random stuff, many of which I dn't like. Like meat-coloured tougher-to-chew konnyaku.......I think a main bowl of rice/noodles with some dishes is better.

just hope the USA no more shock news to the stock or else sg currency will go down n down like hell.

I think it is difficult to tell in view of the situation now..

Yeah I have the same experience for Kaiseki in Singapore too. However, Nogawa suits my taste more (no surprise like snail soup in Tetsuya)

if you have a concern, then do the averaging-out thing by changing a bit every other week or so. You may not win much by doing this, but then you dun lose too much too

I changed there.I think not bad but The Arcade may be better but I didnt check both that day. Too troublesome haha

And NEVER go to the one in Tiong Bahru Plaza. their rate is always higher by at least 0.2.

last night, it was 16.0 and buying only 15.3. This is the first time i see such a huge difference between the two from Money changers
