| | Collapse of the Philippine peso: Who's the culprit? |
| | If the Philippine exchange rate does not stabilise in the next few months (that is, if the foreign currency reserves continue to deplete), it may be a signal that the financial vultures are preparing to ship their money back to their base or to other profitable ventures outside the country. | | | Already awash with dollars they had acquired previously, and disposing of billions of pesos to propel another rise in the value of the dollar, the financial speculators gained windfall profits by the end of the day. | | | The economic strategy of the Philippine government under the leadership of “Steady Eddie” (the Australian media's endearing term for President Ramos) revolves around procuring the precious dollar, even if that attracts more financial vultures to prey on the country's economy. |
