hahahaaaay!!!

Today, I've held the new pounds for the first time ever!
Well, I didn't feel something obscure or weird, our currency has been changing and changing and changing!
Through the last 20 years, the currency has changed several times.. And as I see it, nothing and NOTHING has changed here, the same miserable life!
Haven't we got bigger troubles than that? and what does the hell CPA want?
Can a view of an old Masjid make the previous currency unacceptable?
what does adding some so-called Peace Eagles to the currency? can those eagles save our future?
For God sake, Can anyone tell me, what he/She really felt inside when holding or handling this new currency?

The money will be gone, and "THIS HELL" will Never Ever be better!

Well!Well!

It's abt/MONEY this time :)

U O ME...Remember huh ? (~_*)
------------------------------

"Can a view of an old Masjid make the previous currency unacceptable?
" They do think that the old currency (Dinar) is Islamic one, and because of Sudan which includes Muslims & Christians this change should be made. This change has cost 150 million US Dollars :(
It would be better if it was spent on developing Southern Sudan and Darfour. WHO CARES!!
Now, 1 Pound = 100 Dinars...sounds good!
But...
nothing has been changed instead of removing "00". For example, the coke which costs 100 Dinars it will cost 1 Pound and the Salary which is 25,000 Dinars will be 250 Pounds. I think the change has no meaning and a lot of money -150 million USD- has gone with wind!!!

"Can anyone tell me, what he/She really felt inside when holding or handling this new currency?
" I haven't held it yet, but nothing gonna happen cuz "Through the last 20 years, the currency has changed several times" !!!

The first question that comes into my mind is " What's the point of changing our currency?!!! It's just a bank note!!!isn't it? ".
But after a while, I've realized that this change evokes Bad news and good news.
Let's talk about the bad ones:
As allam said:
"This change has cost 150 million US Dollars!!!!"WOW,by simple calculation we can build 10 bridges all over Khartoum's rivers and still have some millions left!! This is just an example to show how much money is taken from our pockets.Of course, we have more urgent and essential needs all over the country not just the south & Darfour ( Why do we always intentionally or not,forget the north and east?!!!).Also, the new pound will not save our muddy economy nor the fragile peace.
Now, we come to the good news :-)
-No more confusion & headache of adding the last zero every time you buy or get paid.No more math.....
-No need to tell my little cousin every time that numbers on notes are different from math at school .
-No need to give foreigners a manual "How to deal with Sudanese money" among other manuals.
-At last we have something working in our daily life here, i.e. WYSIWYP(G:Get,replaced by P)which is known as" What You See Is What You Pay".

And sure we will not agree about the 2nd part of جاتكم داهية إنتو والبلد
Cuz everyone lives outside this country, dreams of it like Paradise.
