Vietnam Devalues Currency 50 Percent Amid Reforms
Saigon government unveils drastic economic steps including a 50% devaluation of the piaster and salary boosts for 806,000 state workers.

The move shifts the piaster to 118 per dollar, with importers paying more and prices rising, while wage hikes of 20–30% aim to offset the impact.
