Heard that Indonesia are planing that rupiah would be redenominated by removing three zeros starting 2014. The existing rupiah will be phased out by the end of 2018. But the plan was delayed to further notice.
Having a big figure currency could be difficult to calculate. Although rupiah can be converted freely to other currency, but it is still regarded as a risky currency to hold and also was one of the least valued currency units in the world.
It is a matter of time that sing $1 will become 10000 rupiah in the near future base on past depreciation record. Then satu juta will become one hundred buck leow le.

That was not the best rate ever. During November last year, many of us got rates of up to 9700rp per SGD.
There was also a period of time some years back when the rate did drop to 1 SGD = 10,000 rupiah.
Let's all hope that it goes back to those good old times...! Hehe...
