Hong Kong Dollar


The Hong Kong Dollar was officially adopted on November 9, 1935.

Hong Kong circulates banknotes issued from four different organizations.

The Singapore Dollar has a wealth of slang terms attached to different amounts. One Dollar is a "Big cracker," two Dollars is "Grass," "Bowl," or "Stripe," and one hundred Dollars is a "Lump," referring to a lump of water which associates with money in Cantonese.
