Inflation is running into about 3.5 percent this year which is bad news for the money earned hard.
With the current situation, the Peso falls to 51 tot he dollar as of this even date.
this will result to higher cost of commodities due to we are heavy importer of goods we use domestically.
The government's statements of "there's nothing to be alarmed of." is just misleading, giving us the excuse that the rise of the peso is due to the rise of imports of "capital goods" that would soon be converted to exports, is not a stable response in explaining the falling peso.
The problem about capital goods is that they contain to about 80 percent of our export products, that when converted, it would not dampen the falling of our local currency.
The situation should be attended immediately as the condition is alarming when the fall of the peso cannot recover.
