章 46: Chapter 46: Six Months After

Six months had swiftly passed since Alfonso's conversations with his ministers, and now, as he sat in the tranquil garden of the Malacañang Palace, savoring a cup of coffee, he found himself lost in contemplation.

The events of the past half-year unfolded before his mind's eye like chapters in a captivating novel.

Foremost among these accomplishments was the successful implementation of the new currency system, a feat that had been achieved with astonishing swiftness.

The Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank had orchestrated this currency transition, and to their collective delight, it had concluded ahead of schedule.

The Philippine people, along with businesses large and small, had welcomed this transformation with open arms.

Perhaps it was the deep sense of national pride instilled in the design of the new currency that endeared it to the populace. It was as if each bill and coin bore the very soul of the Philippines.
