Sinkie’s $50 Note Now Legally Considered A Sovereign Wealth Fund In Batam

The Indonesian Rupiah has plummeted so hard that money changers at The Arcade are now using the 100,000-denominated notes as high-quality napkins for their nasi lemak.

With the exchange rate hitting a record 13,500, Indonesian tycoons have discovered that their entire family’s net worth can currently buy exactly one medium-sized Coke at an Orchard Road cinema.

Mount Elizabeth Hospital reported a massive shortage of "corrupt uncles," as regional oligarchs realize they can no longer afford the $50,000 required for a Singaporean doctor to stare at their balls for ten minutes.

Meanwhile, average Singaporeans are descending upon Batam like a plague of hungry locusts, feeling like absolute gods because their $20 note can now purchase an entire spa and the manager’s landed house.

One Singaporean man was seen throwing stacks of Rupiah notes at a masseuse while screaming, “I am the fucking King of Riau!”

Experts warn that if the currency drops any further, Indonesians will have to trade three coal mines just to enter a Singaporean pharmacy for a single box of Panadol.

It’s a total bloodbath for our neighbors, but at least your weekend trip to Jakarta now includes the ability to buy the hotel you're staying in with loose change.

This satire is based on a real news story.
