Somalia to Issue New Currency for First Time in 35 Years
The Somali government is preparing to issue a new Somali Shilling, marking the first currency change in 35 years. The Central Bank states the plan is in an advanced stage, necessitated by the old currency's outdated status and its rejection by some businesses. This move aims to stabilize the national economy and improve financial transactions.
