Noticing his worried and pensive demeanor, I decided to ask him the ultimate question early on. How come the peso isn’t getting any better, a week before Christmas? Are the OFWs holding on to their dollars in the hope of getting even more pesos with every day of delay?

I guess that is possible in the short term, as in December, when the OFWs are cashing in their dollars for Christmas. But Finance Secretary Jose Pardo is making an even bolder pitch: The peso will make a strong comeback at P45-$1. In fact, Pardo said government will stick to its earlier budget assumption that the peso will average P44.50-$1 in 2001.
