About Kyrgyzstani Som
The Kyrgyzstani Som (KGS) has been the official currency of Kyrgyzstan since 1993, replacing the Soviet ruble following independence. The word "som" means "pure" in Kyrgyz and several other Turkic languages, historically referring to pure silver or gold. The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic manages monetary policy with a managed float regime. Kyrgyzstan is a Central Asian country with a landlocked mountain economy dependent on gold mining (the Kumtor mine is one of Central Asia's largest), remittances from workers in Russia and Kazakhstan, agriculture, and some manufacturing.
About Vietnamese Dong
The Vietnamese Dong (VND) is the official currency of Vietnam, managed by the State Bank of Vietnam with a managed float exchange regime that keeps it tightly controlled against the US Dollar. Vietnam has one of the world's fastest-growing economies and has emerged as a major global manufacturing hub for electronics (Samsung, Intel, LG have large facilities in Vietnam), garments, and footwear. Vietnam is the world's second largest exporter of coffee (after Brazil) and a leading exporter of rice, shrimp, and cashew nuts.
