Japan has less money value but yet it a great developed country.How is it possible?

The secret is its' people! Japanese people have it instilled in them from birth to be responsible citizens, to value education and famiy, and to have a great work ethic. If all other countries would follow their lead in this alone, we would all be more successful. No, I am not Japanese; I am American and my ancestors were also, but they would all be rolling in their graves if they knew the condition that OUR country is in.

Japan is rather afraid of recession of economy than inflation. Japan have never had hyper inflation like Europe after WW2. That is why Bank of Japan keep the interest rate very low. World currency investors and trading companies buy US dollar for trade settlement. These 2 are the reasons why Japanese Yen stay low (cheap) always.

But this have a profound effect on Japan. Japanese companies can receive tons of money from the trade settlement. Because the payment for the trade is done by the US$. It increases the trade surplus of Japan.

BTW, the digits of Yen are different from US$.
US$ has cent, as in, US$1.18(1 dollar and 18 cents).
Japanese Yen don't have cent.
Current exchange rate is about US$1.18 = JPÂ¥100
