"The yen's strength continues to decline, falling below what it was 56 years ago, as purchasing power declines," reports Jiji.com. Here are my thoughts: This clearly shows the government's incompetence. Japan is a resource-poor island nation. If purchasing power falls, people will be unable to make a living. Politicians and the wealthy may not be affected, but ordinary citizens will. #purchasingpower #yendecline https://www.jiji.com/jc/article?k=2026042500296&g=eco
円の実力、凋落止まらず　５６年前下回る、購買力減退

「円」の価値が凋落（ちょうらく）し続けている。国際決済銀行（ＢＩＳ）によると、通貨としての総合的な実力を示す「実質実効為替レート」は今年３月時点で６６．３３（２０２０年＝１００）と、統計が始まった５６年前の水準を下回った。海外からモノやサービスなどを「買う力」が失われていることを意味し、食料や原油など輸入品の価格高騰を招いている。

A new way to measure poverty shows the US falling behind Europe.

The time needed to earn $1 in international dollars is 63 minutes in the US. This is about twice the average in Germany, France and the UK according to an Oxford University researcher.

Based on what I observe from family members living in Australia, and from my perspective as a Swiss citizen residing in Switzerland, purchasing power in Australia appears to be very low. The overall quality of life there seems significantly worse by comparison. When costs and standards are evaluated properly, there is little doubt that Switzerland offers better quality and greater value for money at lower overall prices than Australia.
