Couple trades son for 25 paise
KOLKATA — Abject poverty drove a couple in West Bengal to "sell" their toddler son to a neighbour for a symbolic price of 25 paise. Local reports said the incident in Malda district's Biddhannagar colony occurred almost a month ago with angry locals saying the destitute couple was forced into the act because the administration had denied them a BPL (below poverty line) card.Macam-macam bernda berlaku kat dunia nih, ini la akibatnya kalau dah terhimpit sgt dgn kemiskinan ... saat si ayah tu trade anak dia .. ada org lain kat dunia nih, berjoli sakan tak ingat dunia ... ermm ... nak tahu berapa nilainya 25 paise kat malaysia ni ??

Leprosy-stricken Sukumar Mondal and his wife Meera, who have two daughters, were then left with no option but to hand over their one-and-a-half year old son to their relatively better off neighbours Bimal and Swapna Ghosh, reports said.
Sukumar had lost his job after he contracted leprosy, and Meera's work as a domestic help was barely enough for the family of five. "We could not bear the cost of rearing this child. We could not buy him medicine and the panchayat also did not come to our rescue. So we gave him to our neighbours for a symbolic 25 paise price," said Meera. — IANS
The Indian currency is the Rupee (Rs.). The Rupee is divided into 100 Paise (ps.). Currency notes are printed in denominations of Rs. 1000, 500, 100, 50, 20, 10. Old notes of denominations of Rs. 5, 2 and 1 are still in circulation. The coins are minted in the denominations of 25 and 50 paise, rupees 1, 2, 5 and 10. Coins below 25 paise (20, 10, 5, 2 and 1) are rarely used.
Basically Rupees/Paise nih mcm Ringgit/Sen jugak .. 100 Sen = RM1 .. kan? So.. 100Paise = 1 Rupee ... Tapi, yg bezanya, nilai Rupee berbanding nilai RM tak sama ... kena ikut calculation kat bawah nih ..
1.00 India Rupees = RM 0.0874504 ...
25 Paise = 0.25 Rupee
So, 25 Paise is equal to RM 0.0874504 /4
= RM 0.0218626 ~ 2 cents onlyy ???
