WHAT DOES RUPIAH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

rupiah

Indonesian rupiah

The rupiah is the official currency of Indonesia. Issued and controlled by the Bank of Indonesia, the ISO 4217 currency code for the Indonesian rupiah is IDR. The name "rupiah" is derived from the Hindi word rupiyaa, ultimately from Sanskrit rupya. Informally, Indonesians also use the word "perak" in referring to rupiah. The rupiah is subdivided into 100 sen, although inflation has rendered all coins and banknotes denominated in sen obsolete. The Riau islands and the Indonesian half of New Guinea had their own variants of the rupiah in the past, but these were subsumed into the national rupiah in 1964 and 1971 respectively.
