The whole world is shocked by the report that has come out regarding India’s GDP growth rate. India’s GDP growth rate in the third quarter from July to September was 8.2 percent. However, the value of the Indian rupee has declined significantly against the dollar. The value of the rupee has crossed 90 against the dollar, but even today there are many countries in the world where the value of the Indian rupee is very high.

The value of Indian rupee is much higher than the currencies of Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, Cambodia, Pakistan and Nepal. A large number of Indians visit Indonesia, Nepal and Vietnam. Let us know in which country the value of Indian Rupee is highest-

vietnam
Vietnam is a South East Asian country and its currency is Vietnamese Dong (VND). One Indian rupee is equal to 300 VND here. According to this, this country is quite economical for Indians and they can travel here very cheaply.

laos
Laos is also a Southeast Asian country, known for the Mekong River, mountainous regions, French colonial architecture and Buddhist monasteries. Here also the value of Indian rupee is quite high. Lao Kip (LAK) is the currency used in Laos and the value of one rupee is equal to 245-255 Lao Kip.

Indonesia
A large number of Indians visit the Asian country Indonesia and the currency here is Indian Rupiah (IDR). One Indian Rupee here is equal to 190 Indonesian Rupiah, hence the trip here is very cheap for Indians.

cambodia
Cambodia is at number four, whose currency is Cambodian Riel (KHR). One Indian Rupee is equal to 45-50 Cambodian Riel in Cambodia.

Pakistan
Pakistani currency is also very weak against the Indian rupee. One rupee of India is equal to 3.12 Pakistani rupees (PKR) in Pakistan.

Nepal
Neighboring country Nepal comes at sixth place in this, where the food, drinks and culture are very similar. The value of Indian Rupee is very high even compared to Nepali Rupees, the currency of Nepal. Here one Indian rupee is equal to 1.6 Nepali rupees.

The new World Urbanization Prospects 2025 report of the United Nations has completely changed the picture of global cities. Indonesia’s capital Jakarta has emerged as the world’s largest city with a population of about 42 million. Tokyo, which was at the top of the list of world’s number-1 city for decades, has now reached number three. The population of Tokyo is 3 crore 34 lakh. Meanwhile, Dhaka has also captured the second position by growing at a record pace, with a population of 3 crore 66 lakhs.

The report clearly shows for the first time that the heart of the modern world is beating in Asia. By 2025, approximately 80% of the world’s population will live in cities and most of this urban expansion will occur in Asia. While there were only a few megacities in the world in the 1970s, by 2025 their number will cross 33, of which 19 are located in Asia alone.

Asia’s dominance and India’s new status

According to the UN model, Asia has the largest share among the ten largest cities of the world. Jakarta is at first place, Dhaka at second and Tokyo at third. Delhi and Kolkata are also included in the top list, but are out of the top-3. Delhi is at fourth position, while Kolkata is at eighth position. The population of Delhi is 3 crore 2 lakh. Kolkata’s is 2 crore 25 lakh.

How did Jakarta become the world’s largest metropolis?

Decades ago, Jakarta was a coastal city with an average population, but after independence, rapid development, employment opportunities and continuous population flow transformed it into a huge metropolis. With a population of 4.19 crore, it now looks like the urban capital of the world. However, rising sea levels, floods and pollution are its biggest challenges. This is the reason why the Indonesian government is preparing the new capital Nusantara.

Will Dhaka leave Jakarta behind?

Dhaka is a rapidly growing city in South Asia. The textile industry, rural migration and continuous population growth in the city have turned it into the most densely populated city in the world. UN estimates that by 2050, the population of Dhaka could exceed 50 million.

The real reason behind Tokyo

Tokyo’s falling rank is directly linked to Japan’s problems. The city’s growth has stagnated due to low birth rates, declining youth numbers and strict controls on migration. After being number-1 for 70 consecutive years, it has now reached the third position.

The world’s cities will become bigger and there will be problems too.

The UN estimates that urbanization will intensify in the coming years. In countries like India, Pakistan and Nigeria, most of the population is moving towards cities. Cities of the future will have to grapple with challenges like congestion, pollution and climate crisis.

Strong earthquake tremors were felt in Alaska, an American state, on Thursday (November 27, 2025). According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), a 6.0 magnitude earthquake was felt 14 kilometers west of the Susitna area of ​​Alaska at 05.11 GMT on Thursday. According to USGS, the epicenter of the earthquake was at a depth of 80.4 km from the earth’s surface. Its initial location has been determined at 61.57 degrees north latitude and 150.78 degrees west longitude.

Earthquake of 6.2 magnitude occurred in Indonesia also

At the same time, nature is wreaking havoc in Indonesia these days. Strong earthquake tremors have been felt once again in Indonesia. The intensity of the earthquake has been measured at 6.2 on the Richter scale. However, the news of relief is that no tsunami warning has been issued at present.

According to the report of China’s news agency Xinhua, the German Research Center for Geosciences (GFZ) said that an earthquake of 6.2 magnitude occurred on the west coast of North Sumatra, Indonesia on Thursday. The epicenter of the earthquake was initially found at 2.68 degrees north latitude and 95.96 degrees east longitude. At the same time, its depth was measured at 10 kilometers.

On the other hand, Xinhua News Agency said that the death toll due to sudden floods and landslides in many areas and cities located in North Sumatra province of Indonesia has increased to 29. According to the information that came out a day before this, 13 people had died.

After Philippines, is Indonesia also going to buy supersonic cruise missile BrahMos from India? This question is because Defense Minister Rajnath has gifted a ‘replica’ of BrahMos missile to Indonesian Defense Minister Sjafri Sjamsoedin, who is visiting India.

Expressing praise after talks with Indonesian Defense Minister Sjamsoedin, Rajnath Singh said on Thursday (November 27, 2025), ‘Defense cooperation between India and Indonesia based on regional security has increased manifold in the last few years.’ The Defense Minister said, ‘During the discussions today, we had a free and frank discussion to further strengthen our defense cooperation and comprehensive strategic partnership.’

A deal worth Rs 3,877 crore is going to be made between India and Indonesia.

According to the information, India has agreed to give a loan to Indonesia from one of its own national banks for the BrahMos missile deal. It is believed that this deal for BrahMos missile with Indonesia is going to be worth about 450 million dollars (about Rs 3,877 crore).

With the help of Russia, India prepared BrahMos supersonic cruise missile in the country.

The world’s only supersonic cruise missile BrahMos has been developed indigenously by India with the help of Russia. BrahMos is India’s prime strike weapon, which is named by combining the names of India’s longest river Brahmaputra and Russia’s Moskva River. During Operation Sindoor, India successfully used the air-version of the BrahMos missile to destroy Pakistan’s airbase.

No radar in the world can intercept BrahMos.

It is believed that no radar, weapon or missile system in the world can intercept BrahMos, that is, once BrahMos is fired, no one can stop it like Brahmastra and it dies only after destroying its target.

Indonesia’s ongoing conflict with China over South China Sea

In the year 2023, India exported three batteries of anti-ship version of BrahMos missile to the Philippines. The value of this deal was around Rs 2,700 crore. Philippines has deployed these BrahMos missiles on its coast.

In fact, like the Philippines, Indonesia is also at loggerheads with China over the South China Sea. In such a situation, the BrahMos missile agreement with India holds significance. In the same year (2025), Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, who came to Delhi as the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations, also visited the office of BrahMos Aerospace Company.

All three armies of India use BrahMos missile.

BrahMos missile is one of the few weapons (missiles) of India, which are used by the Army, Air Force and Navy. BrahMos missile has also been integrated in the Air Force’s frontline aircraft, Sukhoi.

Army’s artillery also uses BrahMos missile. Naval warships have also been equipped with BrahMos. Due to which naval ships have become more lethal and are capable of targeting from sea to land.

A strong earthquake of 6.4 magnitude occurred in Sumatra island of Indonesia on Thursday. Earthquake tremors were felt near Aceh province. According to the Indonesian Meteorological, Climate and Geophysical Agency (BMKG), the depth of the earthquake was 10 kilometers. Earthquake tremors were felt in many nearby areas, but it is a matter of relief that officials have said that there is no danger of tsunami.

The shock of the earthquake was felt not only in the affected area but also in the surrounding areas. The tremors were so strong that houses and buildings shook. Due to fear, people came out of their homes and gathered in open places.

Indonesia struggling with floods and landslides
Indonesia is seriously struggling with natural disasters these days. Just a day before the earthquake, more than 24 people had died in flash floods and landslides caused by torrential rains in North Sumatra province. Due to continuous rains, the embankments of the rivers broke and due to the hilly areas being filled with mud, the relief teams are not able to reach the 11 affected cities.

Constant danger due to ‘Ring of Fire’
Indonesia is located in the ‘Ring of Fire’ region of the Pacific Ocean, which is considered one of the areas most prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in the world. For this reason, there remains a danger of natural disasters here.

There was a big earthquake a few days ago also
Earlier on November 5, 2025, an earthquake of 6.2 magnitude occurred in Sulawesi island of Indonesia. However, there was no report of any damage in that incident. This is the second major earthquake in recent times which has increased fear among the people.

Indonesia’s capital Jakarta has achieved the title of the world’s most populous city. According to the new report of the United Nations, World Urbanization Prospectus, 2025, released on November 18, Jakarta has now overtaken Japan’s capital Tokyo and reached the first place with a population of about 42 million, which is equal to the total population of a country like Canada.

According to the report, Bangladesh’s capital Dhaka is at second place in this list, whose population is about 3.7 crores. At the same time, Tokyo, which was in first place for a long time, has now slipped to third place and in this list, India’s national capital Delhi is at fourth place.

How Jakarta climbed from 33rd place to first place

The UN report is also shocking because in the 2018 UN report, Jakarta was ranked 33rd and its population was stated to be only 11 million, whereas Tokyo was considered to be the most populous city in the world at that time, with a population of around 37 million.

Actually, this big change has come after a big change in the new calculation method adopted by the United Nations. Earlier, the UN urban population figures were mainly based on government records and national statistics of the respective countries, but the problem with this was that each country used to decide the city boundaries as per its convenience. Some countries considered only the municipal area as a city, while some considered the entire metropolitan area. This created disparity in global comparison.

At the same time, to overcome this shortcoming in 2025, the United Nations implemented the same criteria for classifying cities, towns and rural areas for all countries. In the new approach, it was seen that the city actually extends to the areas where people work, live and everyday life is connected to the city, they were also included in the urban population.

UN Widespread impact of new method seen in Jakarta

This new approach had the greatest impact in the case of Jakarta. Jakarta is spread on the northwest coast of the island of Java and is surrounded by several densely populated areas, which are actually part of the city, but in Indonesia’s official census these areas were not considered part of the Jakarta metropolitan area for a long time. All these areas were also included in the calculations in a new way, due to which the population of Jakarta increased rapidly to the figure of 3 crores.

Often in the world, when the Indian rupee is compared with the dollar or euro, it appears weak. Despite this, there are many countries in the world where the local currency is much lower than the Indian rupee. Due to this, a better life and comfortable travel becomes possible even with less money taken from India. In these countries, factors like economic structure, political stability, population and inflation affect their currency, due to which the influence of the Indian rupee is more visible.

Vietnam’s currency Dong is considered very weak against the Indian Rupee. Here the value of 1 Indian rupee is equal to 297 rupees, due to which the local expenses reduce considerably. Everything like hotels, food, places to visit and local travel are available to Indian travelers at very affordable rates. For this reason, Vietnam is becoming a popular option for budget travel. According to this, if an Indian goes to Vietnam with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after going there will be Rs 2 crore 97 lakh.

Better experience at lower cost in Indonesia

The value of the Indian rupee is clearly felt in Indonesia also. Here the value of 1 Indian rupee is equal to 188 rupees. Because of this, the daily expenses, tourist services and local facilities here are much lower cost than in India. Travelers get everything from hotels and food to tourist activities within the budget. The strengthening of the rupee increases the possibility of comfortable travel even with less money. According to this, if an Indian goes to Indonesia with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after reaching there will be Rs 1 crore 88 lakh.

Laos: country with peaceful environment and low expenses

Laos is a place where the local currency is very low against the Indian Rupee. Here the price of 1 rupee is equal to 244 rupees. The cost of lifestyle here is very low. Indians can enjoy natural sites, local food, cultural places and hotel facilities even on a low budget. This country is known among travelers for its peaceful environment and simplicity. According to this, if an Indian goes to Laos with Rs 1 lakh, then after going there it will become Rs 2 crore 44 lakh.

Clear benefit of Cambodia Rupee’s strengthening

Cambodia is also among those countries where the value of Indian rupee is high. Here the price of 1 rupee is equal to 45 rupees. Here one can visit historical temples, sea tourism and local culture at low cost. Hotel and food costs reduce the budget of Indian travelers, making travel more comfortable. Despite world famous sites like Angkor Wat, living and visiting here is relatively cheap. According to this, if an Indian goes to Cambodia with Rs 1 lakh, then its cost there will become Rs 45 lakh.

Uzbekistan Better facilities at lower prices

Uzbekistan’s currency is weak against the Indian rupee. Here the price of 1 rupee is 134 rupees, so the travelers coming here get benefits in many areas. Due to historical sites, tourist services, hotels, food and low cost of local travel, this country is considered attractive for budget travel. The strengthening rupee also makes premium experiences easily available to travelers. According to this, if an Indian goes to Uzbekistan with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after going there will be Rs 1 crore 34 lakh.
