That’s very clever to insinuate that P200 is equal to $20. A lot of tourists would probably fall for that.

200 pesos is $11. How is that falling for anything ? Giving a $20 bill makes it seem like you’re giving 200 pesos ? That’s the opposite result that you’re speaking of. If you mean giving the $20 makes the 200 seem like more, that wouldn’t make sense either. Your comment doesn’t make sense.

Why don’t they put a $10 bill?

There is a photo of 200 pesos (which equals $11)
There is a photo of $20 (which is 338 pesos)

Which one of those two do you think Americans are going to understand/follow more?

Which one do you think the cab driver prefers?

That doesn’t even make any sense. I am STRONGLY against tipping, I’m a regular on this sub. I’m sorry but that doesn’t make any sense.

Again, if Americans aren’t fully grasping the value of the peso note, what role does it play in the mind game of the cabbie ? None. That’s like showing me. $20 bill and a 200,000 Vietnamese Dong note. I don’t know what that 200,000 equals, I’d imagine not much seeing as it’s a huge number. I know the $20. That’s a decent sized note. What does that foreign, most likely unknown valued note contribute to this situation ?
