Hello. Well, I like that they kept the colors per denomination (you know, violet for 100, red for 50, and such) so we wouldn't get confused. I also heard that we have three years to use the old bills before they become invalid, is this true?

i haven't seen it yet,, in fact i haven't heard about it yet,, whats the reason they're changing the peso bills? will all of the bills be changed? well if this is their way of improving the economy here in our country,why not.. it better have a positive result or the money spent on it will just be a total loss..

The new bills is cool and patriotic because aside from the pictures of notable Filipino in front they also showcase the notable places and famous stuff that Philippines has. Like the Tubbataha reef, the Underground River in Palawan and the one that really amaze me is the giant pearl found in Sulu the "Pinctada Maxima". It is also cool that it has new security features and hard to be copied. I am looking forward to have this new bills..weeeeeeeee

I think theres nothing wrong with the new money. The current president has the right to change or revise the looks of the money. I also think that the new bills are great because of the striking colors and the designs. When will it be out for the people? Im quite excited to look at it in person.

I think the new bills are better than the old ones. Many people are copying the old bills to scam people. I think new ones can stop the scamming. The new bills look better than the old ones.

. . for me it is the right thing that our government should act. first it is for our own security on our denomination part, because we all know that our peso now a days has already been forfeited for how many times and it has a great impact on our economic status, maybe we all filipinos should work hand in hand to eliminate those people who always brought us mess and bad image to other country. .
