If we talk about all the currencies of the world, many of them are low-valued (weaker/cheaper) compared to 1 US dollar (USD). This means that to get 1 US dollar, you need to give a large amount of that countryβs local currencyβin other words, their currency is weaker than the dollar.
π Some weak currencies (around 2025β2026)
The following currencies have a much lower value than 1 USD:
1. Lebanese Pound (LBP) β Lebanon
β’ 1 USD β several hundred thousand LBP
β’ This means the Lebanese pound has very low value.
2. Iranian Rial (IRR) β Iran
β’ 1 USD β hundreds of thousands to millions of IRR.
3. Vietnamese Dong (VND) β Vietnam
β’ 1 USD β about 25,000 VND.
4. Laotian Kip (LAK) β Laos
β’ 1 USD β about 20,000 LAK.
5. Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) β Indonesia
β’ 1 USD β around 16,000 IDR.
6. Uzbekistani Som (UZS) β Uzbekistan
β’ 1 USD β about 12,500 UZS.
7. Guinean Franc (GNF) β Guinea
β’ 1 USD β about 8,600 GNF.

β’ 1 USD β about 4,600 MGA.
10. Cambodian Riel (KHR) β Cambodia
β’ 1 USD β about 4,000 KHR.
π In simple terms
β‘οΈ When we say 1 USD = 25,000 VND, it means the Vietnamese dong is a low-value currency.
β‘οΈ Similarly, currencies like the Lebanese Pound or Iranian Rial are so weak that a very large amount of local currency is needed to equal one dollar.
