In Reply to: Value of rupiah in 1986 ? posted by Sabina on Monday, 15. January 2007 at 16:48 Bali Time:
My first trip was in 1994...at that time I got 1700 rp to the USD.......In 1998 I got 14,000.
In 1994 I recall paying $12.50 USD for a mande lulur at the NUR Salon in Ubud, I think that's about what it costs today...I also remember paying something like $2.00 USD for a massage in 1998...that was a very difficult time for Indonesia..not to mention confusing to us.
A little walk down memory lane!
